<NightBird> hm... nice
<NightBird> how often does that update? it looks like ~1000000 per second for the real time..
<lemonodor> see INTERNAL-TIME-UNITS-PER-SECOND
<NightBird> haha
<NightBird> my observations are correct... at least for this implementation
<spiaggia> NightBird: I think what slyrus meant was that there is no need to avoid macros if you can, just like you don't avoid functions if you can. The rule is rather, use a macro when appropriate for the situation.
<NightBird> ok
<salex> that's a good point. i was commenting on the fact that peopel tend to use macros inappropriately when they first learn about them... but was probably unclear
<Xach> i think grahamian style makes people think that a lot of their time will be writing their own language via macros
<Xach> when you don't actually know lisp, that means (re)writing common lisp via macros much of the time
<Xach> lbreak, rather.
<salex> there is something annoying about spending hours cutting things *out* of a document that you spent lots of time putting in :)
<gigamonkey> Any SLIMERs around? I just synced to head and I can't figure out how to use the slime-lisp-implementations variable (which seems to have replaced the slime-register-lisp-implementations function that used to exist.)
<michaelw> gigamonkey: iirc, helmut gave an example not very long ago on slime-devel, maybe the archives help?
<Xach> i have it saved
<Xach> www.xach.com/tmp/slimy.txt
<gigamonkey> Ah, turns out I was misspelling the name of the variable.
<Xach> d'oh
<gigamonkey> However I'm sad to see that the repl buffer is no longer named in a good way based on the symbolic name.
