I learned Scheme from George Springer in the '90s.
I just want a language with S-expression syntax and a proper numeric tower (like Scheme), with modern HAMT-based immutable collection types (like Clojure), and a native JIT so I don't have to mess with Java or JavaScript.
Does Racket fit the bill now?[1][2] Coming from Indiana, I was happy when they announced the move to Chez.
I was heartened by a post here yesterday about implementing a numeric tower on WASM.[3]
