>Common Lisp is the same But the great thing about Lisps is that they can't get stuck in the past. For example, if, say, Python didn't have decorators and you wanted to add them in, you'd have to present the idea in a PEP,

First the surge in Tor nodes, now this? I bet the Feds did this.

That was part of my original intention. The reason 'foreign' takes C as its first argument in the examples is so I could eventually add support for binding mangled C++ functions mangled through Clang/GCC (Which luckily use th

I've heard of it but never took a hard look at it. The one thing that's interesting about it to me is that it's a Lisp with "normal syntax", which is people's main complaint about Lisp, yet it hasn't explo

I feel there is a spot between the performance and control of low-level languages and all the tremendously useful features of high-level languages. What I basically wanted was "C with Lisp macros". I think Rust is the closest lang

A statically-typed, JIT-compiled dialect of Lisp. I felt that there was a spot between performance and low-level control, and high-level metaprogramming that no language right now occupies (Except possibly Rust, which looks pretty promising
