What do you think is the best example of this rope you're talking about? Macros? Something else?

It's downvoted because it's missing the entire point of this article?

Almost every week a new article comes out from some language index saying Python is at the top or overtaking Java or C or C++ to reach the top very soon. I think the evidence is simply not there to support that static typing is somehow pref

I've always thought that static typing is the least interesting thing about functional languages.

Could this be used to create a macro system for python?

Programs should be written in languages that model them almost perfectly. Languages that are too powerful or too weak for the application means the programmer will make modeling mistakes and either leak abstractions or obscure them.

The New Yorker is an establishment mouth piece. This article is such laughably obvious propaganda and that its embarrassing, considering how good the New Yorkers journalism is for non political issues.

I've spent a few months learning Clojure - never gave CL a try. Here are a few thoughts on Clojure: 1. Excellent syntax and library support. It is my first Lisp, but I can't how I programmed without macros and persistent data stru

Would you recommend learning Common Lisp over Clojure?

But then you have to code in... Tcl...

So I should stop supporting my old parents by paying for their rent/expenses and move somewhere else because I'm currently not following my dreams? Some people don't have the luxury of being selfish.

Where did the parent say "bullshit" or "trivial"? They said its socially useless and unproductive, which seems roughly true to me

I think Android's popularity and extremely quick adoption owes itself to the fact that it's open source.

If Google had gone the open source route out of the goodness of their hearts, you'd have an argument. Google went the open source route to bootstrap on top of a well known operating system (Linux), as well as to accelerate adoption and

My uncle owns a Tesla Model 3 and my dad owns a Lexus RX350. I find the adaptive cruise and lane keeping algorithm in the Lexus much more comfortable and ergonomic. I find the Tesla sometimes make jerky decisions while the Lexus is more pr

Are there car dealers trying to offer a la carte car + entertainment system packages but are being shut down by BMW?

The media reports on this story are quite conflicting... Not sure who to believe. Is this guy an innocent whistleblower who's being targeted by Tesla or someone with an agenda against Tesla trying to sabotage the company?

That's all true. I'm making a stronger claim. I believe Wikipedia is the best website for the two things I mentioned. There isn't a second competitor that comes even close to the breadth, depth and convenience provided by Wik

Wikipedia is the best website for following: 1. Current events. 2. Sports tournaments. The information entropy level is quite high, with basically no ads, extremely good formatting (relevant tables, charts etc.), and relatively unbiased. Th

These are all merely syntactic sugar that replicate functionality available in Python that would otherwise be done in a more awkward way. This PEP is doing the same thing.

Whataboutism. Corrupt politicians have ruined Pakistan and all of them should rot in prison regardless of their political affiliations. This also includes the corrupt Army generals and officers who have sucked Pakistan dry for years.

Decorators, context managers, list comprehensions, multiple assignments, keyword arguments are all gratuitous. Should we remove them?
