Ah, to be clear I'm not opposed to this post. I guess it's a combination of a) surprise at seeing this type of technical question here, and b) being used to this sort of question on StackOverflow. I feel like at least for this type of question in particular, StackOverflow is better equipped to produce and sort out a good answer. But I can certainly see why it might fit on both.
- brudgers 11y agoI'd flag this question on StacKOverflow. There's no code and too much opinion in the possible answers and no objectively correct one. It might be ok on Programmers. StackExchange though it would perhaps benefit from more detail. My general feeling is that it's an XY problem...an assumption about the solution is driving the requirement.
- urs2102 11y agoJust checked back on this post from yesterday. The reason I didn't pose it to SO is that 1. I still do associate HN with a strong Lisp community. 2. It's more of a question of opinion versus a technical question itself and figured the discussion could be interesting for the site. I also didn't give too much thought as to where I was posting it.
