   "The key point here is our programmers are Googlers, they’re not researchers. They’re typically, fairly young, fresh out of school, probably learned Java, maybe learned C or C++, probably learned Python. They’re not capable of understa

   I have been using Xojo (Former REALBasic) for about 10 years to code database-driven business apps for several businesses with great success. I also use x86 asm, Rust, Racket, NewLisp, Scheme, C, Python, JavaScript and shell script (sed, Pe

   Hi there, thanks for replying. I’m quite sure Rash is superior to my toy program, tbh I can’t wait to read more about it and check your code. If I have some free time I’ll try to contribute too. Cheers!

   Thank you for writing. Agreed, there a need for direction and better documentation. Feedback has been great and this has motivated me to work harder at this. I’d like to have something more standard. I currently use lsh to walk paths and re

    I started lsh a few weeks before finding out about Rash. I found it too complicated to be used as a replacement for sh, but I might not have read enough about it to make a proper judgment. In the end I wanted to implement something that beh

    Thanks for the feedback, I will update the description ASAP. I know I need to write a few examples, especially how to handle files. If compiled with pmap, it's possible to do things like: (pmap (lambda (f) (run (+ "[some-command]

    Thanks! I implemented this just to create blank files, and didn't bother researching correctness. That's exactly the kind of correction I was hoping for when posting to HN. My first post too.
