  I just wish it was easier to get started with Guile tbh. I'm an Emacs user so I don't have to learn Emacs to use Scheme and I still find the experience pretty bare-bone. There aren't many tutorials about creating Guile projects, writing tests, debugging, etc.

  Shootouts to cwebber and Spritely, I love what they're doing to show Scheme off as a modern and practical language.

  Any news on the front of non-GC LISPs? Carp [0] seems to be dormant...
