The Chinese version distinguishes simplified from traditional characters. It shouldn’t do that. The German version is a little meh. Top categories are something like “howto”. It seems like you used a very simple word-based algorithm to crea

You’re wrong in both points

that's how common lisp and clojure still work too!

Meta uses something very much like this in production. It’s open sourced at https://glean.software/

Clojure is evaluated eagerly but has lazy data structures. That means you can reason about performance, but you get to work with data in a more functional way than you otherwise could. I imagine ferret follows that example.

Lucky you, one of the chapters implements scheme. Seriously though, use CL, you’re not going to have a good time with scheme with this book. It’s making use of some CL specific behaviours

> The Kubernetes build system is bash. The project experimented with bazel but removed it (too complicated, bad developer experience). I know I’m being very uncharitable but I had to giggle at the irony here

As someone that fairly recently spent many months trying to shard a large mongodb system, this is patently false. Mongodb is not sharded “by default”, and sharding it is a lot of work and comes with a very heavy performance impact.

How are they “The Enemy”? Are they coming and killing Americans or is it just generic xenophobia?

Both google and Facebook have monorepos, and I think apple does too. I’m not sure about the others, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did as well

Clojure is the big outlier

How is this different from any other scheme?

No, he's right. It got 'demoted' from a core function to a footnote in a module. See also https://blog.finxter.com/about-guidos-fate-of-reduce-in-pyth...

What a self-centred take. Not everyone has the same priorities as you, and if he values wfh more highly than whatever the benefits of working for apple are, then why would you call it “entitled” to decide to quit rather than go back to the

Give babashka a try. It’s a (very batteries-included) clojure dialect that has the specific goal of replacing shell scripts like that: https://babashka.org/

I loved Coast and wrote at least one production app with it (and very quickly and pleasantly at that), but it needs to be said that swlkr is the only developer, and he seems to have mostly moved on to Janet ( https://janet-lang.or

If I remember correctly it was in fact written in Common Lisp; the output was originally that file but it may have been modified since. You can probably google the truth with those breadcrumbs :)
