@jackdaniel Neat. Will you publish the code of these examples?

@shelldozer And Turbo Pascal.

This list of the most influential software programs is quite old but so are the classics. In addition, as the author warns, it is not clear how to define the selection criteria which makes the result inadequate.

Still, it's fun to put together such a list and it's a starting point for thinking and discussion.

@brouhaha The Dwarf Xerox Star emulator also lets you run Mesa:

@fvzappa

@elettrona This discussion sheds some light.

@larsbrinkhoff That would be great. I hope the version you got includes the original Interlisp-10 HELPSYS which is missing from twenex.org.

@masinter

@autumnwinds Right, something similar to Smalltalk.

Using SBCL and McCLIM I wrote an Interlisp tool in modern Common Lisp with a CLIM GUI. That's what happens when one is having too much fun with Lisp.

@ezeno I haven't tried it yet.

A good detailed review of Linux Mint 22.3, the latest release of the distro.

@come_744 Thanks for the suggestion.

@grawity Thanks you very much for the insight, I'll try.

@thomasmarangoni Yes, Mint is still using X11 by default. I tried starting the application from the command line but, as reported in the linked issue, the additional information doesn't ring any bells.

@them

@them An interesting lead, thanks.

@thomasmarangoni

@burnitdown Thanks, in the linked issue I also reported my command line launch attempts.

@cos Thanks, I tried it as reported in the linked issue.

Can you help me troubleshoot a Linux issue?

Have you experienced issues with the Typesetter editor for Typst (or other Flatpak appplications) failing to launch from the desktop menu after logging out and back in? The context is this issue I have on Linux Mint Cinnamon.

@davidgerard Sure.

@davidgerard Interestingly, the AI industry loves benchmarks which at least measure something.

@jackdaniel Does it work similarly to the ~& direcctive of format?
