I have Racket 7.1 running on macOS 10.14.1, works fine. I installed it with brew cask install racket

@rj.amdphreak My guess is an issue with code signing. If that’s it, then command-dragging DrRacket out of its folder and back will likely fix the problem… BUT FIRST, what output do you see for the following commands (as suggested by @ryanc in a different thread today on code-signing problems)? spctl --status --verbose
spctl --assess --verbose PATH/TO/DrRacket.app

Is there any GraphQL Racket client I have missed? It seems there isn’t… but I wanted to confirm before trying to do something about it.

Mac OS X does not make it easy to view and copy an applciation path. The “Get Info” feature is underwhelming.

The fucker runs when I cd into the directory and run it from terminal. the fuck?

But running it from Finder or the launch pad still doesn’t work after getting it to run from Terminal.

Every generation must invent its own XML :slightly_smiling_face:


Oh! That’s a server. Nevermind…

Thanks! But --verbose
doesn’t seem very verbose. How about --verbose --verbose
, since repeating the option is supposed to make it more verbose.

Another thing to check: whether the almost–7.2 build at https://pre-release.racket-lang.org behaves any better, since it has an updated code-signing certificate.

I think GraphQL is more than “just another XML”, fwiw… it’s not really a transport format but a query language.

I just finished reading the latest gradual typing paper / survey from @shriram / @justin et al in DLS18… I’m trying to find one that was brought up during racket summer school 2 summers ago. I think it was still fairly new at that point. It had some really good / bizarre scenarios in it. I thought I bookmarked the survey but I can’t find it now. Anyone have a reference or remember it’s name or anything?

(I think @justin was involved with both)

Can We Crowdsource Language Design? https://cs.brown.edu/~sk/Publications/Papers/Published/tpk-crowdsource-lang-design/

using —verbose twice did not change the output

Any way co have pre-release co-habitate with stable?

yes yes yes. thank you!

they also had a survey up at the time (not on mechanical turk iirc)

GraphQL Graph Query Language. Compare to SQL

@ben Not sure I want to hear all that racket… :sweat_smile:

The pre-release download is not downloading.

It downloads for me, so I’m not sure what the difference might be. There’s no problem having two different Racket installations in different folders.

Dragging binary from folder and back into it did fix the problem. Another dumb expression that you’d have to have created OS X to know.

It also shows a popup saying DrRacket would like to control your computer via accessibility settings. What is that for

Thank you @mflatt

The accessibility warning is because Racket’s GUI library tries to install a hook (to watch for clicks on the menu bar) that it turns out not to need. We’ve fixed that for the upcoming release.

@greg Right, @lexi.lambda is correct, GraphQL is a query language. This is the kind of thing I am generally not interested in but it seems the Github API v4, relies on it, and I would love to have a good API to v4 in racket. So, I am stuck at looking into the GraphQL v4 spec.
