As far as I can see this paper seems to be behind a paywall. Why is this posted here?

You can give Spacemacs a try if you want Vim bindings.

Have you used Git Lens yet?

That version is extremely noisy, imo.

It might not be the best example, but the point stands. Succinct notation is important. "JSON" instead of "%*" might not be the greatest of examples but still.

As if "json" is any more searchable. Operators have a meaning that you learn quickly when learning the language. You wouldn't do math with "multiply" instead of "*", so why would you want that in a program

> But the later transformer models have a good grasp of grammar AFAIK that is an open question. They don't even have a grasp of negation beyond superficial heuristics, as seen in arXiv:1902.01007.

But then I'd have to program in Go.

I still hope for Common Lisp 2: Electric Boogaloo.

The obvious solution is not to compile your project with every change. See F# interactive: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/FSharp_interactive.html

I like F# quite a bit, but the main selling point for me besides my algorithm stuff would be data science/ML. Sadly, the F# libraries like the R Type Provider, JSON Provider, etc. don't seem to work.

Since when are programming languages called language models?

> Before learning conditions you should already know that = means attribution, not testing for equality. Depends on the language. F# and CL, for example, would like a word.

"Design patterns are bug reports against your programming language." - Peter Norvig, https://norvig.com/design-patterns/ I have to say that I agree with this. In my experience design patterns in Java lead to

I read it the same way. I haven't heard this idiom either.

General reminder for everyone that insect or bee hotels exist. Hang them in your garden, help insects. I have one on my balcony and roughly three dozen holes have been filled by a kind of wasp (not yellow jackets).

No, I read chapters from time to time, I'd love to have time to read all of it. Maybe, I'll think about it.

Oh man, that's the one I meant, not AIMA+Lisp. But AIMA is great in general.

There's also SICP and Lisp in Small Pieces, maybe also Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, that contain very interesting stuff with Lisp and in general.

I would rather look for a different job than being held hostage for months, just me though.

It was never intended as a stand-alone language for large projects, rather as a glue and prototyping language. All the tacked-on "static typing" won't change this. I think it would be best if Python was used according to its
