<daviid>dsmith-work: yes, developing apps for the librem5 phone, using guile, since they use debian as their os and gnome as the phone desktop (one will be able to use plasma as well) <daviid>dsmith-work: postgres servers would run on ... servers. one can write an app, for the librem5 that uses libpq, or sqlite3 ... my concerns wrt postgres is platform independent: what we have is not good enough, imo <daviid>amz31: what's the problem wrt latex? <daviid>it would be nice to also improve our sqlite3 bindings, the bindings themselves, adding a manual ... but at least we can trust what we have (there are used by guix, and daniel did a good job to improve things recently, however it could have a web site, a good tutorial, releases ... <daviid>lloda: are there?

<roelj>Is there a convenient way to merge pairs with the same key in an alist? So, transforming: ((a . b) (c . d) (a . e)), into: ((a . (b e)) (c . d))? <rekado>roelj: does it *have* to be an alist? <rekado>roelj: I don’t know if that’s convenient but you can fold over the alist item by item and accumulate the new alist. <rekado>roelj: while you’re here: should we open an IRC channel for the gwl? <roelj>rekado: Possibly. The mailing list is pretty quiet, so I wonder whether the same would happen to a gwl channel.. <ng0>we have more bots in libmicrohttpd than people.. but it exists if people need it.. same for gwl maybe? ***decal is now known as Combinatorialist
<amz31>daviid: no problem with latex it's just that what I am working on is so niche, that almost no conference is suitable for it <amz31>daviid: also lloda is looking for you <sneek>Welcome back daviid, you have 1 message. <sneek>daviid, lloda says: what time are you on?
