Yes, with all of the LEGENDARY SHIT POSTERS on here, the whithered spirit of SICP may have kept alive; but this is not good enough. There needs to be a great awakening, a revival, when someone decides that they've had enough of the lack of classical computing in this day and age, when someone decides For Dummies books are literally for dummies, when someone decides that they need to take a stand, and complete SICP.
I want you all to ignore the site, because none of you are seeking the services offered there, but do I want you to consider joining. All we are doing is reading a chapter or so of SICP a week, and completing the excercises. It doesn't matter whether you have not read, are reading, or have read it, this should help re-invigorate the old (autistic) programming spirit. If you are interested:

Hopefully Thursday, I will have it all set up and announced.

aboutus.html talks a little about that. We were already there, and figured we would do an SICP workshop just for the fun of it.

I have, in fact, read all of SICP. I neglected to do all of the excercises, and that seems to be the meat fun of the book.
If you like the sound of it, show up. If you don't, don't attend. I just wanted to publish some news on this board. I didn't mean to offend any of the older members. This will be my last post.

The IRC server is not announced yet. As a matter of privacy, would you prefer a protocol such as SILC? I want to do this and you guys are absent...

I'd visit it if I didn't have to download fucking Tor. Maybe I'll give it a try tomorrow.
I'm genuinely interested in this, but you need to post more information about the schedule. I'd only be able to do this in the afternoon, and I live in Central Time Zone.
When is the /prog/.onion bitcoin exchange coming online?

Yeah, I thought it would be a nice cleanup of IRC, but no, it's borderline extensible enterprise bullshit.

SICP hits Russia
Guys, yesterday I met a lisper in the street. So you know how it happens - a man with tramp's appearance goes toward you, and when he comes closer, you can see on his forehead two brackets and a big lambda between them.
But that time I met a child, in looks of 14 to 16 years. And do you know what is the most astonishing? I felt pity for him. "So young, and already a lisper" thought I and turned around. Then I turned again and came up to him.
"What's your name? Where do you live? Who are your parents?"
"ERROR: Unbound variable: What"
I had to ask in another way.
"Bracket. What's your name? Where do you live? Who are your parents? Bracket"
"My name is Mandrew. I have no parents, I live in the Gorky park"
"Bracket. Let's go to my place, Mandrew. You may live with me for some time, I will feed you, find a job and a dwelling for you. Bracket"
"No I won't come with you. My friends will lose me! They and I gather at the Buran every Friday and read SICP aloud. And today is exactly a Friday. I can't miss it.
eing interested in seeing this show, I asked if I might be present there. Having received an affirmative reply, he and I went straight to the Gorky park.
What at once struck my eye was that the ordinary for this place queue for the attraction had disappeared. So had the ticket office. A light was shining inside.
"But be quiet, and say nothing about the types theory" unexpectedly warned Mandrew
"Ok" replied I
We came in. It goes without saying that I was astonished. On the walls there were some portraits of famous lispers such as Rich Hikki and John Maccorty, among these there were lots of listings in LISP and its dialects. About thirty people were waiting for us whose smell, as it then seemed to me, could be used for hunting cockroaches. There were women, children and elderly people among them.
"And Sassman said: don't sell Bible but have fun! So be it! Let it be forever! Lambda!" was heard from the tail.
"But Sassman is a jew! Jew, my dear, jew, guys! Jews mustn't oppress real people, us, Russian people who built this Buran, the crown of human creation!" cried some bald fatty. A few people with hooked noses came out of the crowd and drove the rabble-rouser out.

Just because I consider gender to be unscientific and ultimately destructive doesn't mean I smoke Marx's cock everyday.
