Why would you do that in a doc-string? If you just `declare` the types with `declare` instead of putting them in the docstring, the compiler can also take advantage of them. Then the system can automatically tell you that information back.

I do this as well. This helps get the API right very easy on. When building services for my work, we've paired this with Swagger (using Compojure-API in Clojure) to get clickable API consoles. The end result is fast iteration on an api

I'd prefer Android on my Chromebook Pixel (assuming for a second that I didn't just install Arch Linux on it) instead of having Chrome OS. I'd take a working Skype + Browser over just a Browser. There aren't any webapps

It seems to work reasonably well in a terminal, but I found myself wanting to use some features that weren't supported in the terminal. The biggest reason for me to use tmux + vim was vim-slime for editing+repl environment, which basic

It's probably not even that hard to embed the CPython interpreter into tmux and allow extensions written in python. If you just wanted to write python extension modules, embedding Python and then wrapping the tmux api with Python using

Err, what? Maybe you mean that an arbitrary distinction between statements and expressions makes the language trickier to learn than it otherwise might be. But once you have that distinction, print being a function vs a statement isn't

Maybe they don't, but maybe they do. How many of those jobs wouldn't exist with access to a more talented team? As an analogy, I don't require a phone to communicate with my mother, but if I didn't have the faster method

You only need 2 people for backyard whiffle ball. I played 1 v 1 a lot because even if you joined several baseball teams, that could only get you 2-3 hours of baseball a day anytime except Saturday. 1v1 baseball generally required more work

Services that don't require email for functionality shouldn't require email addresses at all. An excellent example of this is reddit.

ADTs in Typed Racket with macros(lexi-lambda.github.io)

What are macros if not custom compiler extensions? Sure, Shen is enough of a compiler extension to be its own language, but I can call Common Lisp code from Shen and call Shen code from Common Lisp. Doing either isn't very different fr

Nobody told Dr. Tarver[1]. He built a series of lisps with tight integration with the underlying Common Lisp platform featuring a strong typing system rooted in the propositions of Sequent Calculus[2][3]. Type delcarations are only on top l

Are we counting the code my macros produce? As far as git is concerned I might be down a couple hundred to a couple thousand in a good week, but if we count macroexpansion, I'm rolling in the LoC.

You can use it like korma if you want (it has a higher level dsl (but with functions that all return a map)) ala: (require '[honeysql.helpers :as sql]) (def query-map (-> (sql/select :*) (s

I built a system on top of yesql* and eventually threw most of it away because it was a lot more trouble than composing queries with honeysql. I prefer honeysql to yesql for the same reason I prefer hiccup to enlive. It's just easier t

I was poking at the non-standard portion. Lowering barrier to development of plugins, patches, etc is fine, but being standard doesn't help or hinder that. Popularity and ease of introduction help that. Javascript (that is, the dialect

The author seems to have missed the Ring Spec [1]. It provides a complete breakdown of what is in a ring response and a ring request for the core spec. The middleware (at least those that ship with ring) are all documented in docstrings exp

Hiccup is different than HTML templates. Hiccup is trivially composable because it's a library based around native data structures. If you want something your designers don't have to think about, Enlive (uses HTML as templates and

Code completion, refactoring aids, linting, and whole program analysis also exist in dynamic languages. Take a look at emacs with anaconda-mode for python or cider for clojure. IntelliJ in the forms of Cursive and PyCharm (or the Python IDE

kinda. The dispatch is on a single value and isa? isn't mapped over that single value if it happens to be a collection. This means you can dispatch on multiple concrete values in a collection or the isa? hierarchies of a single thing,

multi-methods at least are isa?-based. This implies that they obey ad-hoc hierarchies created via derive as well as traditional java inheritance hierarchies. protocols are little more than open-ended interfaces (i.e. I can extend them at ru

The TrustedBSD features are used by appliance vendors who base their product on FreeBSD. Applicances have very narrow profiles of acceptable use and thus it's actually sane to develop policies for them.
