Depends, where? If you go to a village in India they probably offer you some food so delicious you could never imagine. But in the west alcohol is all people know.

I don't fully agree with a chess analogy, because chess has certain completeness and perfection to it so there isn't really much to improve or innovate on. Where arpgs went a long way (paved by D1 and D2) in terms of user friendli

It's nice to see as a pet project but really D2 is just too old in every single way. At this point you could have just joined some game studio and help making a modern aprg.

I never heard about XL and it looks very interesting, the DSL capabilities remind me of Rebol/Red, but it looks like XL has a proper type system and compile-time optimisations. What is the current status the project? Is there any ongoi

There are lisps without parens too, it's not strictly required for parsing and evaluation. I think the main purpose of parens is to highlight the syntax tree for developer manipulations with macros
224.
by mapcars 3y ago
I don't see them as macros either, it's more like pattern matching and replacing patterns with expressions. Maybe there is a term for that? And it's not compile-time only, I'm pretty sure you can't do this as a macr

I don't know much about V, I was answering why new languages are a good thing in general, even if they seem very similar to another. And I don't think every new language has to have some unique feature too. You can compare almost

I get physical pain in my eyes after spending 2-3 hours at any screen without my blue filter glasses. Is this also a placebo?

by mapcars 3y ago
Right, so I developed eye pain in my univercity years and since them I'm wearing blue light filter glasses for 14 yeas spending 6+ hours at screen every day without any problems. Is this insecure part or gimick one?
