Scientists don't need tables implemented in their markup. They need tables inside linked files that readers can actually use in data analysis without having to learn yet another complex technology. The browser could render linked CSV o

It also seems to be impossible to use a keyfile for unlocking additional disks.

If only interactive JavaScript visualizations could be readily embedded in Emacs, or intelligently handled through linking to an external browser. I wish xwidgets got more love.

R can do this too if I understand correctly.

I really want to support Joris since I think extremely highly of TeXmacs and its principles. Frustratingly, the shipping cost to the US is almost as much as the book: 49 euros for the book and 31 euros for shipping. I hope they can find a U

I'm not concerned about sometimes laggy scroll speed. That was a common issue with the first android phones. Not being able to use the camera hardware at all is something I hope they are prioritizing fixing ASAP. If it can't be

But I would be very interested to learn more about what you are doing with SQLite if it is more than finding a few means and standard deviations.

Potentially an easier path I've been thinking about is to take the already well polished Rcpp<->R bridge and extend it one more layer into a guile<->Rcpp<->R bridge. Part of the motivation here is to get better integr

I don't know if I would call knowledge of regulations"deep". But I agree with the rest of what you are saying. I'm just want to point out that the problems most effectively aided by LISP are those that require orders of

I agree. The fraction of programmers that are tackling really challenging problems that push the limits of what's possible has probably always been small, but it has only gotten (much) smaller. Mainstream programmers don't do thos

I don't understand why HN hates R. HN loves lisp, and R as a language shares a much greater affinity with lisp languages than python or Go do. The language was born out of the original authors reading SICP (as statisticians). Sure, man

R is much more lisp-like than python: more functional, more emphasis on DSLs and metaprogramming, and the community is far more inviting to New comers: reminds me a lot of Racket in that regards.
