Static typing is useful if you are building some program for other people to run that you want to be reasonably robust. However, it does not work well with interactive programming. If I had to declare all the types every time I do something

I don't know much about Go but the design seems very intuitive to me. You're doing something like (let ((i variable)) (loop (setf i ...) ...body)), which if there is a closure in the loop body will capture the variable i and also

No, not at all. I don't read a book to regurgitate the text in an imperfect form later. I read it to learn about the ideas and thought. The syntax itself (ie. text) is not that important.

I don't know anything about japanese chalk but in general you should break chalk in half because that makes the chalk not scratch with a high pitched sound when used.

As expected, LLMs don't actually think. This is not really a surprising result when you understand that it's a few billion Markov chains in a trenchcoat.

Is there a proof here at all? The only thing mentioned in the article is a computation. With due respect, computer-readable proofs are not very interesting to me as a mathematician. I don't see why we should do it. Reproducibility is n
