I love the Clojure community, it is the only one that usually talks about the host platform in a symbiotic way, not as if they would be rewriting everything into their favourite language, like in most guest languages communities.
- zem 4mo agopeople don't usually think of C as a host platform, but the python community has a similarly symbiotic relationship with C extensions.
- erichocean 4mo agoSince Java 25/Project Panama, I have that kind of relationship with C from Clojure as well. Codex can one shot the bindings flawlessly, and the interface is significantly faster for downcalls vs. JNI.
- pjmlp 4mo agoHence why it is such a sad story with JIT compilers in Python.
