JSON-Safe Lisp Language

What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Relatively simple currently, but figured I'd post for some feedback. I started this project last year but somewhat abandoned it. This feels like something which most likely already exists, but I couldn't find anything at the time I made it. I feel like my write up on the repo is pretty good at explaining the inspiration and purpose of this package; "Let's say you have an API, and you're looking for a method by which you can increase performance of your app via doing transformations of the data directly in the API. In this scenario, you would middleman the API returned data through a Fluxduct parser in order to get the data in the format you would like. An important distinction to be made here is that you are not changing the raw output of your API, but rather defining explicit values which you would like back in the app. These values are much more versatile than a pure API response as well, as they can be compounded with operators and conditionals to return computed values not otherwise returned in your API. Even more, the number of fields is completely up to you! If you only want 3 fields, foo, bar, and baz, on an API endpoint that returns more than just those 3 fields, you can explicitly only request those fields back. As icing on the cake; Fluxduct is made from plain javascript, which allows for implementation either server-side or client-side, on top of this, Fluxduct is JSON-safe, meaning all transformations can exist as JSON, making these transformations able to be stored in most databases without the need for any additional transformations." All criticism is appreciated.

Hi all, powerful open-source Lisp implementations are a dime a dozen, why not try JMurmel instead? The language is inspired by Common Lisp, except it's a Lisp-1, and it is mostly a subset of CLtL-1. Jmurmel can be used standalone with or without the Repl, for "#!"-style hashbang scripts or embedded in a Java program. It features [documentation for the core language](https://jmurmel.github.io/murmel-langref.html) as well as [documentation for the default library](https://jmurmel.github.io/mlib.html), a REPL, an interpreter, a compiler, macros, backquotes,…

Hello, HN - I wanted to share this puzzle game I made during my vacation. I'm rather fond of the pipes puzzle where your goal is to restore a scrambled network of connections by rotating tiles. It's usually played on a grid of squares and this all started when I decided to make a programmatic solver for that kind of puzzle. Then I realized that with some minor changes the solver could generate new puzzle instances. I thought about what kind of puzzle to make and someone suggested a hexagonal grid. Adapting the generator wasn't too hard but then I had to create a way to play this variant. So…

We're building Parsnip to create a "tech tree" of cooking skills that allows anyone to level up on the building blocks of cooking knowledge while tracking their progress over time. It took us a few iterations to figure out the right product; here's the story of our latest pivot: [https://parsnip.substack.com/p/a-new-hope] The goal is to create a personalized way to learn any recipe on the Internet, then use this as a springboard to help home cooks of all levels solve the problem of repeated meal planning in a 10x better way:…
