@spook@pleroma.m68k.church #emacs is a good way to incorporate #lisp into your daily life and is also well set up for editing lisps of all varieties.
Just starting with and configuring some themes to making it look like you want has you writing lisp. Then, adding some key bindings - more lisp. Every customisation is lisp. Lots of opportunities for learning and practising.
And you can read SICP in info format within emacs!
And you can read the Spritley Institute Scheme primer in org-mode format in emacs!
And you run a Guile REPL from within emacs to execute code! So you can do the exercise write there without leaving emacs.
And you browse the Web to look up tips and tricks for hacking on lisps.
And you post your progress to the fediverse from within emacs!
....
You get the idea.
Playing around with all that will have you writing little bits of elisp every day, so you'll be improving your lisp skills constantly!
@jdw@mathstodon.xyz You can follow from mastodon. Scroll down a little bit for some info here:

@spook@pleroma.m68k.church there's also this discussion about reading SICP in emacs: https://lobste.rs/s/0r1whx/sicp_emacs
The link there seems to be broken, but it looks like it should be: https://kchousos.github.io/posts/SICP%20in%20Emacs.html

@shegeley@fosstodon.org nice! I'm looking to set up something like this. Do you run guix with wireguard on a vps, or directly connect to guix with wireguard running at home?
Also, what was the fix? Just change the port?
