I'm happy to announce Racketfest, a conference dedicated to Racket, to be
held on Saturday, March 23, 2019, in Berlin, Germany.
Racketfest is a chance to spend a day nerding out about Racket and to learn
more about it. We've got a great lineup of talks:

I have updated the Travis build file for my application to use
Racket-on-Chez
as one of the build configurations and, while the code builds and automated
tests pass, the performance is very poor. I know that measuring times of
Travis builds is not exactly scientific, however, I have run these bui
For those interested, I have prepared a benchmark using the benchmark
lib. Kudos to Josh and Vincent for it. I use it _all_ the time and have
a dozen or so benchmark files to track some racket operations as racket
evolves - so I know how it will affect my software.
If you don't care about code a
Sounds fascinating. As an instructor for first-quarter CS+X, I’ve been looking
at alternatives to sound as a setting. I’m interested in the
Fisler/Krishnamurthi/Politz/Lerner Big Data curriculum, but yours also sounds
good!

Dear Racket community, I need your help.
Once upon a time, I was looking for a Racket physics engine. I looked
around and found a few different bindings from Racket to the Chipmunk
physics engine. However, none of these repositories appeared to be
maintained. None of them used the latest ver

In my program, hashes are only 20% faster than sets containing approximately 20
elements that are S-expressions.
I solved the mystery of why switching to lists with unique elements made things
faster and in some cases even changed the meaning of the program. I always
thought that my program wou

Hi all,
The context for my recent messages to the list is that I'm thinking about
courses for next year, and I'm thinking about the intersections of data
analysis/visualization, modeling, and HtDP-ish introductions to programming.
I like NetLogo (https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/). I don't wa

I am curious now. How slow? Why? Do you have any data backing this up?
Generics are very useful, I would be very disappointed if they are
indeed very slow.
