A work in progress. A joke; every academic CV I've ever seen has this as a faux-humble declaration that "education is lifelong." No, really I'll be writing real content here, but the blog post is all I have time to write tonight.
For now, here's a list of references I plan to work through (perhaps more in the spirit of my Antilibrary?):
- Common Lisp: A Gentle Introdction to Symbolic Computation: Actually I have this on the shelf and read it through senior year. Incredible that I did nearly all my "fun" programming in Lisp in college and have now forgotten it all. I'm hoping to reactivate a racial memory here, because with living in Emacs daily I need this now.
- Practical Common Lisp: I'm loving Seibel's latest Coders at Work and this is his better known (well, not for long) book and plenty recommend it as a good modern read for using Lisp now. He's got some reasonable-sounding practical examples (MP3 database, ID3 parser, HTML library) that are enticing.
