Sorry for the silence. This has been a scheduling thing mostly: I managed to schedule 'breaking my arm' for about three days after 'starting a new job', and together with the ongoing project of 'being a new Dad' (I plan to pivot that one into just 'being a Dad' if and when I finally feel like I know what I'm doing - so maybe in about 20 years or so) this has left not much time for discretionary writing.

Something old: a couple of months ago Vsevolod Dyomkin emailed me to ask if I wanted to be featured in his series of interviews with Lisp hackers (or, in my case, former Lisp hackers). After keeping him waiting for unsnsionably long - partly due, of course, to the aforementioned bone breakage - finally I have sent him my answers and he has posted them
