Does anyone have a contact for the nuACM channel on YouTube? The @ryanc video on macros is ‘not available in my country’; https://youtu.be/AB15shYUU4M\|https://youtu.be/AB15shYUU4M

We should update the wiki to give all the info on how to make racket code fast, making sure we mention the tradeoffs.

Same here. I remember mentioning this about another video on that channel a while back, but I don’t remember what it was (an old State of Racket talk from a past RacketCon maybe?). When I visit this channel, it says that it has no videos or playlists.

Same here, and I’m in the same country as nuACM.

It looks like all their videos are offline?

I think so. Hopefully they haven’t lost access to the account.

That’s a fantastic presentation of Racket! Well done @mflatt

@joshibharathiramana do you anticipate people will use a variety of programming languages for the reading group?

from 2012 but I think this is now my go-to for when people ask ‘what is racket’


joshibharathiramana
2020-11-29 16:26:07

I don’t think so. I will be using Racket though.

The catalog site is confusing because there’s not a reassuring front page, but that’s not the problem…

The v7.9 source distros and PPA have been updated, but I’m guessing that you build/installed before the repair.

how do you call something that is proper racket? like when you find something that looks right in python you say pythonic… i remember seeing a term being thrown around but i cant remember what it was…

Is there an email or wiki post that roughly describes how to install Racket BC or CS on RPi 4?


samdphillips
2020-11-29 22:55:13

That is if there is anything dramatically different from build it from the source package.


mflatt
2020-11-29 23:15:15

There’s nothing different.

To install Racket CS on RPi 4, I downloaded “<https://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/snapshots/current/installers/racket–7.9.0.9-arm-linux-cs.sh|32-bit ARMv6 VFP> built on Raspbian” and picked [3 - install in ~pi/racket] during the installation. That was it.


samdphillips
2020-11-30 01:44:05

That’s probably a lot faster than what I did (build from source.)


gknauth
2020-11-30 01:45:26

Yeah, I figured I was not going to build from source on an RPi 4, or rather, I was too impatient to find out how long that might take, and what things I’d have to install beforehand first. My RPi 4 is brand new. Racket is literally the only thing I’ve installed on it, and it works!
