Some quick chart review: don't use acronyms, they add cognitive load and require the reader to take action just to read your work.

Wrapping it won't lengthen the wheelbase or suspension so it will still turn in like a little bike. Still will be twitchy at speed like a little bike, and defo going to take pothole just like any other bike with little wheels, terribly

The monkey gets 160+mpg, it would be difficult to improve much on that. Certainly not going to get a 2x multiple of it for cheaper than you can increase the fuel tank by an order of magnitude.

The backend of Skyrim (and other Bethesda games) is largely a database. Bethesda calls them .esp files, but they're relational in a way. There has been a large open undertaking to produce tooling for this, such as xedit (Pascal) and z-

That is remarkably accurate for a wild guess. Lisp code tends to be built from the inside. Working in a REPL, modifying the system state as you go, storing code into a buffer then recompiling and loading it into the image with a keystroke.

Better power consumption, especially in deep sleep. Make waking up cheap too, especially for some IOT purposes, like grabbing a sensor reading every couple minutes and storing it in a queue for future burst transmission. Optimize for that s

For me it made sense when thinking about DC. It misses a couple important paradigm shifts for AC though, like resistors sometimes being used to set the ratio of voltage to current, rather than resisting anything. Gets even trickier at highe

I have no idea what you can or can't easily do in Rust. Here is something many languages can't do succinctly, without closures and code-as-data. From Paul Graham's book, On Lisp, modified to work with Lisp code as keys.

There is an endless amount of Lisps because the core to get one working is one page of code. So many people make one as a pet project. Aside from the small unused versions, the rest of the dialects have a lot of differences between them, so
