In the exception example, there is a line saying: {'try',{y,0},{f,13}}. Why is the symbol `try` quoted here? Does it need to, if its name is all lowercase?

Data point: as someone who grew up in villages and small cities in eastern Europe, I've seen cars being used for whole hours a day in total. Driving somewhere for thirty minutes a day is still a short total commute time relative to wha

Your car doesn't stay idle 95% of the time, then. While the general principle might still apply in your case, the original examples don't, because your situation is different.

And here I am, after reading the article, wondering about the Lisp version that took the third place. If you are reading this, dear author - please share your code, even if anonymously.

Yes, this is a hole in the GPL. Use AGPL as appropriate to solve this.

Same as Wine: none, since they are required to be 100% black-box reimplementations. No one who contributes to Wine is allowed to even look at the original Microsoft source code.

Can't wait either. I hope my new book contributes to it.

The title is inaccurate and somewhat alarmist; it is not as if the GPL just has been proclaimed unenforceable in France. The major take-out from the article for me is that in French law, licenses are contracts and therefore the litigation s

Yes, the above is a trivial implementation; handling multi-form input would need to be much more complex. Thankfully, for simple one-liners, you'll likely want either April literals (implemented above) or April anonymous functions, bot

Yes, the talk mentions that Dyalog is still much more performant, given how much time and effort has been spent on optimizing it.
