I mean, If you ignore the advances in engineering and computer research of the last half century and just go with something new, different and unproven because a friend told you so, can you really blame technology?

Cool story bro. But if I may, I believe treating inanimate objects as women puts them off more than LISP.

Some people look at a new language and don't see anything that proves it was made after the 1970s.

Moronga is a common enough dish in mexican cuisine (and a few other countries). It's a sausage made with pig's blood.

It's been opensourced which as far as I can tell, means that the developers wash their hands now and leave to move on to new, easier and more fun things than writing a decent text editor. They delivered half of what they promised 1 yea

So you're unwilling to learn something potentially better because you're were offended by a (surely) tiny portion of its userbase? Lose the childish attitude. You owe it to your craft and users to keep learning and using better to

Heh, might as well just use another language at this time. Guido himself seemed to be very pissed off at the common lispers for being forced to add some functional language features. You can see it from the crappy implementations of single-

Holy shit this site. This crap is getting so much upvotes, the comments in here make me vomit. Where are the mods? surely they would never allow this kind of link on this site?

It's best if you actually just _read_ code everyday and the writing is just the side effect of tinkering with it. Like chess you will save a lot of time by learning from other people's games before you actually do something on you

And since those qualities are so out of reach for techies they're looked down on.

A little off-topic but the fantasy series Broken Empire are set in a post-apocalyptic world similar to the one you described. When I read them I thought that was very original.

This kind of comment always makes me smile. Half-assed complaints that people make because no one gives a crap about what happens in the world unless it personally affects them. In my opinion it's as simple as "do you think it&#x2

We have authorities to stop psychos who think the only way to solve that issue themselves is to beat the thief to death. That aside I think your advice is cowardly and people should learn to solve their own problems. Sometimes that includes

If I understand that scala code correctly it's just enumerating a multiple arity function manually. It's not that uncommon to see that in clojure for performance reaasons, clojure.core has plenty of examples as does the java-writt

A lack of curiosity is indeed reproachable. And while I do consider knowing how a car works basic common knowledge, I wouldn't advise someone that doesn't have that to start with the manual.

Since you know the division in collatz-next is always exact you can change / for quot or a bit-shift-right. That should improve it somewhat. You should also typehint with ^long the arguments to your functions. Further than that I would

Clojure has other advantages which other lisps and go don't have such as immutable values and a prevalence of expressions (as opposed to statements), both of which give core.async certain features that go's implementation lacks.
