Thank you! That is definitely an interesting language. However, it seems like development has stopped. The GitHub page says: "Note: For personal reasons, I'm on an extended break from the coding side of Vale, feel free to DM me on

I always wondered why you brilliant people who "get Lisp" never actually released anything written in Lisp.

Norway is not nearly as woke as Sweden, so I doubt it.

Typical swedes. It is probably the most woke country in the world... but they are paying a price for that now.

Excellent, that's precisely the thing I was looking for! Thank you! I see that there are some tricky issues that would have to be solved with regards to ergonomy, even with an imagined subset of Rust.

Nvidia on Linux is more like running Windows 95 from the gulag, and you're covered in ticks. I absolutely detest Nvidia because of the Linux hell they've created.

I just switched to AMD Radeon as well to get away from the nVidia hellscape that is nVidia and Linux.

So if you take a Python program and you add the mental effort of having to deal with static types, lifetimes, the borrow checker and performance considerations, and this added mental effort actually allows you to write the program faster? T

I couldn't agree more. This has turned me away from Rust as well.

I couldn't agree more. This is pure manipulation.

I've attended a few Rust conferences and events, and they have all been unusually politicized. There has been a very strong emphasis on how inclusive the community is, which raises some red flags. It is akin to someone repeatedly expre

It is not similar at all. Kids all over the world draw swastikas on bathroom stalls and such, just to provoke. Rarely do they get beheaded/stabbed as a consequence, though. Swastikas are not acceptable, but very few have any strong per

They have very large representations compared to every other major non-christian religion in european countries. Islam is also the fastest growing religion in the world, by far. On top of that, it is the religion that gets in unproportional

Wow, I had forgotten that this language even existed. Someone said that OO never clicked until they learned Smalltalk. Perhaps I should give a try, and perhaps it can improve my Python :-)

Thank you. I think you're absolutely right about JS. I would prefer to avoid dead technology, which is one of the reasons I haven't spent much time with schemes like Racket or GNU Guile.

This sounds excellent! I will have a look at it.

Interesting perspective. Thank you very much! I didn't quite get the part about Ada - is it a language with a large surface area?

Thank you so much for taking the time to compile this list! I had no idea C# has so many keywords.

There is a lot of talk about DIY here, which sounds cool, but I'm also pretty lazy and I have started way too many projects. What are some really underestimated systems that you can buy?

There are also a number of cases where someone got mild covid, and then months later got vaccinated and developed pericarditis and myocarditis.
