depends what you do, but many Lisp-based live environments have a near 0 startup time in a terminal. Try SBCL (a version of Common Lisp providing fast native compilation, incremental and batch) for example. SBCL also saves all memory (on demand) and can restart it, so one is in the same environment in milliseconds.

- emmanueloga_ 4y agoTL;DR: golang tooling and environment (libraries, open source projects, ppl, etc) is way better than SBCL's. I did play with SBCL a bunch, and other a bit more "esoteric" lists too! [0]. I just feel like langs that are not in some form of top ten and with big corporate sponsoring are pretty much always super behind when it comes to tooling. You can get one or two or three AMAZING golang IDEs to work with (VS Code with Vim plugin is what I use). For SBCL, it HAS to be emacs. And I have mixed feelings about emacs, even when using Evil mode. 0: https://extemporelang.github.io/ https://extemporelang.github.io/
- lispm 4y agoPersonally I prefer the interactive development style of SBCL. Thus I would easily prefer SBCL and GNU Emacs over VS Code, especially given that VS Code uses telemetry to spy on its users.
- emmanueloga_ 4y agowell... your HN handle _is_ lispm, so you may be a lil bias lol :-p -- PS. I know I know it is the other way around... it is just an attempt at a joke :-)
