This implement of Language Server Protocol is pretty neat. I really like Qt Creator and wish it had more language support, but we still only have Python successfully implemented. I am wondering if they might now make it easier to incorporat

But what real world difference besides some battery improvements. They are both fast in terms of responsiveness and I find VS Code to be much easier to customize and get up and running.

Sadly this is my story also. I use Vivaldi as my main browser now, which is Chromium based. Firefox does work awesome and is normally what I program my scripts through headlessly but in personal use FF just gets bad periodically.

I really would like to say that I find it ridiculous that mac users consistently bash Firefox due to feeling it doesn't belong while they use Google Chrome. How is Google Chrome more AppleOS then Firefox? Granted I can't stand App

I really can see this working, but I don't see how this would be a better workflow for me. Problem one is the learning curve of a Video Editor and Problem two it takes hundreds of hours to get fast with an editor. I switched to Davinci

Thank you. That is the best answer to comparing languages I have seen by looking at your two codes. I never really thought of Nim as being that close to Python in syntax but seeing the two codes together I saw how you were able to achieve t

Racket is not academic to me. Racket equals programming fun and really is a joy to use. Academic seems to not convey the feeling one gets when using Racket. To me Racket is really the future of what languages will look like, a language to c

That number will be very small. I am guessing it is the farmers that couldn't buy more land and got land locked by their neighbors huge farms. I had a friend who's dad was a wheat farmer and he actually went and rented land and di

And Fortran is still probably faster than if it used C in most cases of R's use of Fortan. http://beza1e1.tuxen.de/articles/faster_than_C.html There is just a ton of well written Fortran for number crunching and

Well the issue isn't the boom and bust. It is the new leverage that has been made over seas that has forced the American farmer more pressure. Knowing this the Federal Government made a huge multi-billion dollar safety net for the farm

I think the future is General Purpose Languages that make DSL. Right now we have Racket and that is such a powerful thing to create DSL simply.

I searched and I can't find it but someone was trying to implement R inside of Racket. Personally I really want a language just for cleaning data in Racket first and then tidyverse.
