Similar to this line: "In most FP compilers, your whole program either compiles or it doesn’t, making it difficult to make small scale changes. If I’m programming in Python, and I want to test out a quick hacky change in some component, I can do that immediately to discover whether the hack will even solve my problem." Strikes me as an intriguing pragmatism. The language seems tightly coupled to an upcoming editor and possibly even http framework. Hopefully it's good enough to justify that lock in and flexible enough that cli scripts, thrift / grpc, etc remain possible
