  1. Ha. Well, https://taoofmac.com was ported to Hy ( https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy ) in a week, then I eventually rewrote that in plain Python to do the current static site generator —- so I completely get it. I am now slowly rebuilding it…

  2. …days it’s a purely static site generator and a bit too funky to release (there’s a variant over on https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy ) but I really enjoyed maintaining it while it was a small, batteries included environment. I considered…

  3. At long last! Now I can finally clean up https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy (I've been poking at it over the years, but every time I upgraded hy portions of the syntax broke, or things would get moved in and out of the hyrule package, etc.)…

  4. …(which is what I’d do these days if I hadn’t already “finished” mine). And, if you’re into LISP… https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy might make for some fun reading.

  8. …exact approach, but using Python. If you’re looking for inspiration, the older source code is up at https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy . The current version is pure Python 3, but I haven’t cleaned it up for public use (and likely never will,…

  10. This is hilarious because I’m currently converting my own blog engine ( https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy , which powers https://taoofmac.com ) to a static site generator, and have decided to port it to Rust sometime in the future.

  11. I ended up dropping Hy very soon after they dropped let. Had an entire blog engine written in it: https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy ...but I wanted Hy to be LISP, not a thin veneer over Python.

  12. I wrote https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy on it before they moved let to contrib. (I later ported it back to pure Python 3, because I couldn’t move forward while Hy was in flux) If let was “fixed”, I’d probably move back to Hy.

  16. My blog/wiki engine is written in an older version of Hy: https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy I'm currently re-writing it in Python 3.6 because Hy has taken a hard stance in backwards compatibility and deprecated "let" (with a replacement…

  17. It's not a blog, it's a Wiki ( https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy ), and the blog just hangs off it. I see no damning in that - you can always either not visit or not click :)

  21. I'm still using Textile. My blog engine ( https://github.com/rcarmo/sushy ) can cope with ReST, Markdown, Textile, raw HTML and iPython notebooks, and I still turn to Textile for complex tables and other niceties. Out of the 7000-odd pages…
