somewhat off-topic, but as both the author and original poster of this article, it's
interesting to note that the article appears here as though it was posted 3 hours ago,
even though I actually posted it 23 hours ago (when it gathered no attention).
- dang 6y agoThat's because it got put in the second-chance pool - see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380 and the links back from there.
- SV_BubbleTime 6y agoDan, Emailed, still shadow banned, should I email again?
- dang 6y agoI wouldn't. Each time you do you put yourself at the top of the inbox, and we work through the inbox from the bottom up—this seems fairest, plus is a natural form of comeuppance for the most demanding emailers. Please don't post off topic things like this to HN. I'm sorry it takes a long time to answer emails sometimes, but those are the constraints we're under. Believe me, I don't like it either, especially on nights when I'm up late answering them. You're not being treated worse than others, and it's a tad off-putting to be harangued.
- js8 6y agoPlease correct the misspelling of TRAC in the examples section. (Or link directly to Wikipedia.) And I really enjoyed your analysis. But I think Forth (or Joy) deserves a discussion. I also wonder how homoiconicity relates to lambda calculus. Pure Lisp contains additional facilities that basically allow one to introspect lambda expressions. Somebody must have studied this theoretically.
