I prefer it to Scheme or Common Lisp. But while I've spent a decent amount of time on news.arc, I haven't spent much lately on the underlying language.
It turns out I can do a maximum of 2 things at once. I can't work on YC, writing, and hacking. And since YC is a given, that means I have to choose between writing and hacking. Over the last couple years I've mostly chosen writing, but that might change.
Which reminds me, I really should do a new release of news.arc. It's significantly better now.
- gruseom 16y agoIt turns out I can do a maximum of 2 things at once. Huh. That reminds me of a rule I figured out a long time ago: you have two cards to play. As in: Job, school, family, startup, pick 2. (Though startup really wants both.)
- brlewis 16y agoI'll be interested to see if having a child increases your capacity for simultaneous serious projects. It had that effect on me. I think it does that because you're forced to do lots of context switching, and eventually get better at it.
- pg 16y agoSo far that hasn't happened.
- icey 16y agoI was just thinking about how much faster HN has been lately. It's pretty rare to get a timeout, or even have to wait for a page to load. It's one of those things that I guess you don't really notice until the other sites you visit start getting slow again (ahem, reddit). Anyways, thanks for keeping it fast!
- projectileboy 16y agoHas any of the news.arc goodness trickled down into arc.arc? It'd be cool to see arc3.2.
