Oh and one more talk I highly recommend, very complimentary to @wingo's Wastrel talk IMO (tho not using the same tech):
High-Speed Linux Application Execution in the Browser with Binary Translation https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/NABRSD-high-speed_linux_application_execution_in_the_browser_with_binary_translation/
@cwebber it was a great talk! I'm curious to read the rest of the slides you had to skip to learn more 😊

Oh and one more talk I highly recommend, very complimentary to @wingo's Wastrel talk IMO (tho not using the same tech):
High-Speed Linux Application Execution in the Browser with Binary Translation https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/NABRSD-high-speed_linux_application_execution_in_the_browser_with_binary_translation/
To everyone who pointed it out, yes my Lisp is Clay talk video wasn't up when I posted this! Here it is now: https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/HDE7JZ-lisp-is-clay/
I had a really strong positive reaction from the audience on this talk! If you've ever been wondering "well why is Spritely in lisp/scheme and what are those lisp people doing over there anyway" OR if you have had a hard time articulating why Lisp is great (and not just "it has macros"!) here's a talk for you!
@cwebber I was eagerly waiting for this one
