It's definitely an interesting approach. I imagine it makes the parsing much easier.

Python has a data structure like this called NamedTuple. I also noticed it's popping up everywhere, in this case sql rows (kind of). Conceptually I like the idea of using it as the mechanism for function arguments, but I didn't wa

I don't have a lot of experience writing Lisp-y code, so perhaps I'm speaking from ignorance, but I think there is a reason that syntax never gained huge traction. Imho a syntax that's concise and expressive is important for

I share the author's point of view, which led me to start a new relational programming language that compiles to SQL. It's a way to build on existing databases, like postgres or mysql, with all of their advantages, but improve on

Might be because it contains overt racism? Although I guess we've grown desensitized to that these days.

I think you can get away with keeping it unordered for 95% of the code. But the remaining 5% are going to fail in very confusing, and possibly inconsistent ways.

I like the idea, but it's seems a little premature to show it, since there's very little information. For example, what is the supported subset? Are there any divergences in behavior? (for example, are the dicts always ordered?) A

No. I don't think it's in their hands anymore.

The idea is nice, but I think implementing something like that well is going to be very challenging. One one hand, you'll have users trying hard to game the system (if you think karma is motivating, try actual money), populism, and on

That's a very quick diagnosis, that all their users just have a communication problem. Calendly can be used to hold office-hours, and to allow users or customers an easy way to get face time with you. Also, I have a lot of acquaintance

It would make me more likely to contribute, if it was an appropriate amount of compensation for that issue. In that case, I would also want to have a clear understanding of under what conditions my pull request will be accepted, and when.

I like to think, or at least I hope, that OSS isn't going to decline, it's just going to evolve. The existing OSI licenses weren't meant for a world of clouds and SAAS. I believe we'll have to find the next-generation of

How does flit compare to poetry? The seem to be both doing the same thing, and in a very similar way.

imho all of these are easily offset by the fact that unlike in sqlite or mysql, `cast('1,031' as int)` will throw an error instead of returning 1.

I'm not saying Elastic's model is the open-source ideal. But a product that can't find a financial model won't exist either. ES may not give their contributors the same rights on paper, but in practice there is no discer

I'm generally a fan of the open collective, and I appreciate your contributions to open source. But I'm disappointed to learn that you took part in this irrational attack on the FSF. I feel that it has in fact made the open source

I notice that your directory structure and markdown formatting are very similar to those that are used by static site generators such as Hugo or Nikola. Do you have, or thought about, integration with one of these? I like the idea of writin
