The algorithm exposed in the article would be better served by a Stern-Brocot than average + jitter.

ClojureDart co-author here. It happens in Dart too. Some changes are not compatible with the current application state. It may occur a bit more frequently because of Clojure being less stringent than dart about giving names to everything (w

It’s also a matter of habit. We are just too used to English words even when French ones exist. Go try and read Principes d’Implantation (sic) de Scheme et Lisp (the original Lisp In Small Pieces): pure unadulterated French and, to me, a co

Stern Brocot is a better way to do fractional indexing (pathological cases are not aligned with common uses cases like putting something to the front). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stern%E2%80%93Brocot_tree?wp...

I would argue that lambda calculus without pervasive lazy evaluation is not lambda calculus. Lisps in general don’t have it (unlike Haskell) and make them not so removed from hardware (once hardware stacks were added to CPUs). For long Lisp

No, it's hierarchical (because we nest collection types) vs relational.

A Datalog program is guaranteed to terminate (if finite databases). A prolog or miniKanren one doesn’t. Datalog is not Turing-complete.

I don't know if letters can be considered as gendered. Anyway, there are some feminine nouns: Lua (moon, feminine in Portuguese), Cassandra, Miranda, MariaDB, Clara Rules (off the top of my head too).

Yes, "roman graphique" is a rather recent term (whose usage has slowly grown over the last 15 years, generally applied to BDs with more "serious" topics; it allowed some people to say they don't read plebeian BDs, t

Sort of. First, conses are mutable so lists are persistent as long as they are used in a persistent way -- it has to be enforced through the codebase (and deps). Second, lists big-O access/update costs are not as interesting as persist

Flatten is a steam-roller and should be used wisely: it recursively flatten a sequential collection. Most of the time this is not what you want. Most of the rest of the time when you think that’s what you want it’s a code smell telling you

Not necessarily. One can use tabling (memoization) to prevent that. Also sometimes reordering clauses in the body of a rule is enough to avoid infinite runtime. Datalog (or SQL + recursive CTE) don't have this problem. Mozart/Oz o

Datalog is a subset of Prolog syntax and logical semantics, but not of its operational semantics, so in practice the link is tenuous. I like the honest words of Serge Abiteboul (co-author of Foundations of Databases http://webdam
