People still use common lisp? ducks In all seriousness, the plugin architecture will certainly allow for exactly that to happen. If you're interested in trying your hand at adding CL, I know a guy who could probably sneak you into the bet

FWIW, while I was there I ran the first end-to-end usability study. It was... enlightening :)

I agree, and I was astounded when I found out they had never done an end to end study of how people use Visual Studio while I was at MSFT. It surprises me how little we really know about the human aspects of our own field. The practical/pra

That is indeed the average amount invested by YC. As stated below in recent batches there has been the startfund blanket investment which used to be $150k and is now $80k. Technically speaking this blanket investment has nothing to do wit

That could very well be the case for me and I just haven't been part of a "sufficiently good team." :)

This is actually something I've considered quite a bit and I've come to realize that I think there's a certain amount of megalomania necessary to be a "primary decision maker". You have to genuinely believe that you can make better decision

Having my own startup as well, it's hard for me to imagine #1 really working out in any meaningful way since you'd be coming from the outside. In order for the work to really be interesting to me, I would still have to be able to be the pri

it probably wouldn't even be that hard, actually - since you could model it pretty closely off of the Clojure one. Either way, though, it's definitely something that the plugin system will enable :)

We're working on this ourselves. With the next release we're doing a full set of docs and we're making a number of things on the setup side easier. Robert and I really want to see people using LT to learn programming and I think we have som

I don't have an exact date, but it will happen once the beta goes public and the plugin architecture is available :)

Even if it was covered in the full docs, you shouldn't apologize. Any new entrant in framework territory should be immediately explicit about what advantages it provides.

Just to lend some more credence to this statement, we (LightTable) have actually contracted him to work on CodeMirror and have been nothing but happy with the results. He runs a tight ship and the output is great. CodeMirror is a fantastic

We just seem to have different definitions of "fix". Fix, to me, implies the issue goes away. Are 1, 2, and 3 important? Yes. 4 should never have been an issue to begin with. And 5 is a non-solution given that simply adding more lines of ex

What did they fix? They've side stepped any real solution for the root problem. As such, the only thing they've "fixed" is new relic, by making it report what is actually happening.

This is really neat, great work! I wonder, do people perform the kind of edits that this makes efficient very often? For example, in the video it was predetermined exactly what was going to be moving and where it was going to go to. From

"eval" in the CSS case just means injected into the context. Nothing gets computed :)

eval is only for Clojure, ClojureScript, Javascript, and CSS right now

All files in Clojure require a namespace form at the top: (ns foo.bar) Since you don't have one, clojure.core isn't available and it freaks out. I'll look into setting the default namespace of file so that it's a little nicer for ne

it actually uses neither, and doesn't rely on any specific implementation. You could fairly easily wrap a swank client to make it work, or an nrepl one (which is something we'll probably get to soon). One of the nice things about the way we

I'm curious as well, since most of the programmers I've met prefers a dark theme. :)
