People choose platforms because of their functionality, not because of their code licensing status - see the case of Scala, linked in a different sibling comment. Matrix and Zulip, even after years of chasing, still sadly haven't caug

I don't think your statement holds true in practice. Collecting data that you then don't do anything with, in theory or even in practice, is also something that GDPR penalizes, since there's no need for you to collect it if

Why? Code requires comments regardless of language in order to explain the why as opposed to the what . See e.g. https://github.com/sbcl/sbcl/search?q=kludge for examples.

A semicolon in Lisp starts a comment. Despite how bad some comments can be, I kinda doubt comments are the source of all evil in general.

This isn't a post, it's a PR. If your names are listed in a public Git repository, then you need to have them removed if you resign. This means a PR and a review of that PR, which is exactly what happened here.

Do you really think that Facebook is going to write one right now? It's good that we have some coverage from companies that have some stake in the game because they are also affected by the outage, even if only partially.

The problem is that it is not "alt". It exists in our current shared history, and we can encounter it if we are either willing or unlucky enough.

It needs to be repeated over and over that Common Lisp is a pretty damn poor choice for this blogpost's title, even though the first part of its name kinda-sorta fits into the "tragedy of the commons" idea. CL honestly isn&#x

CL isn't a functional language though. It's 100% multiparadigm. The lisp-notes page that you linked shows this.

In case of Coalton, you can simply hide the dynamic nature of `eval` behind a black box, as you would with any other non-coaltonesque Lisp-Object.

Can't say that different namespaces are a sign of Lisp showing its age. At least in my mental model, it is convenient to know that a single symbol can name several different things in different namespaces at the same time - e.g. a vari
