So I've shipped a few small games with clojure and unity. GC does come up, but it's very easy to optimize your tight update functions with Unity's profiler. As for finding answers, the clojure CLR interop is pretty similar to

Pretty mature. There's open issues, but nothing that hinders publishing to desktop and android. If you like clojure and unity I highly recommend it :)

Strongly agree! One of the reasons I'm excited about IPFS is for content addressable code linking. For example, running single js functions through google's closure compiler to normalize the symbols and using a package manager th

I believe it was originally displaying extended ASCII in a nCurses console, and switched to bitmaps with SDL. The majority of the world is still visualized by those character codes and two colors, but entities can be assigned arbitrary spri

So Guncho interfaces a mud server to inform7 runtimes? I used inform7's function dispatching as the basis for a python MUD engine, fun stuff - https://github.com/selfsame/mud.tilde.town

Fun to note DF is a massive voxel simulation that displays a 2D slice as ascii. There's some neat third party visualizers that can hook into it's memory to show more. http://i.imgur.com/PTj1QpL.jpg

I just gave up trying to read a newsweek mobile form article because of this (site kept resetting the scrollpoint to the top of page). If I can't read a text article on my $500 pocket super computer, I'm beyond annoyed. And I agr

As an art handler, I've a theory that they placed thick blankets under the blocks and pulled the blankets. You'd be amazed at what a couple of people can pull with a blanket.

For me, coffeescript was the answer to the question "How can I write javascript with python-esque whitespace block formating?" I suspect the author was asking something like "what can replace javascript?"
