Cisco iOS Scripting with Tcl
This brings back memories. I used to work at Cisco in the early 2000s.
Unlike many of the places I worked at since, Cisco (atleast the BU where I worked at) had a dedicated team to implement the libraries and tools needed to script/automate the routers via the consoles. It was a library based on TCL/Expect that connected directly to the command line to get things done. It had a core library maintained by the team and an extensions directory that had modules developed by separate teams for their own features. Finally, there was a regression suite that tested complex setups to make sure that everything was performing well. It also had routines to connect to traffic generators. The one we used was from a company called Ixia. The whole thing had regular release cycles and was treated as a first class internal product rather than just a script someone had written. As part of the work I needed to do, I even wrote a little Emacs mode to handle IOS config files https://github.com/nibrahim/IOS-config-mode
I thought this was the standard way of doing things but several of the companies I worked in since didn't have this polished an infrastructure team and it showed.
I don't know if was because of lack of adoption of TCL but several years later (2017 or so), they moved a lot of the tooling from TCL to Python and I actually went back to deliver some trainings to reskill the engineers on the new technologies.

There is more work to be done before release 10.0.

Not only Clojure – Chez Scheme: Lisp with native code speed
What is yakihonne? Another blogging platform? Rather confusing to use.
Anyway, would have been nice for the article to link to Chez Scheme project's page, which seems to be this one:
https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme
Also not clear why should folks use Chez? The article barely covered the why or what successful apps have been written in Chez.

My resignation letter as R7RS-large chair
Who will convince Kent to come back and make r6.1rs? https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/issues/574
If you want a large language, isn't it a better idea to build it on top of something the makes better guarantees for the user? I prefer my program to not continue executing after reaching an erroneous state.

Why does GUIX use guile if chez 20x faster + a bunch of other reasons?
So far as I know Chez is not a variation on Guile, it's a scheme implementation similar to Guile, and so far that I can see Guile is more active, with more community and more package ecosystem , and looks like Chez is/was a cisco project, not sure how is the development process there, but Guile looks like more active in terms of commits https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git, the last one in "main" is 3 weeks ago vs may 23 https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/commits/main.

Are there any notable software projects done by traditionally non-software companies?
The link doesn't work for me but to answer the title, I found it interesting to learn that Chez Scheme (often regarded as the Scheme implementation which produces the fastest programs) is developed by Cisco, the company that makes networking hardware

Is anyone doing Advent of Code in R7RS this year?
Göran is spot on. I am sad that Marc's proposal on the chez tracker has seemingly died: https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/issues/574

Unable to install Chez Scheme, I'm lost 🙃. Can you illustrate me on how to do this because I have tried for a couple hours and I don't have time to waste so I guess is better if I ask step by step the meaning of all of this

GitHub Copilot investigation
Many open source project don't allow contributions from people that have worked with similar projects with incompatible licenses. I remember https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/pull/376#issuecomment-45... and https://wiki.winehq.org/Developer_FAQ#Copyright_Issues
