For a moment you had me wondering if there would be a way to use Hy and google's new Grumpy together, and then I dismissed the idea as probably utter madness. For a long time I've been pining for a Clojure-like lisp that can compile to machine code.

- willismichael 10y agoI'm not certain that it wouldn't work, but it would have multiple compile steps: Hy => Python => Go => Native, which would either cause a lot of pain or make nigh impossible many of the advantages of using a lisp, like connecting a repl to a running process and being able to evaluate and rewrite code from there.
