  • I think IS are not too much into music, on the whole.

  • Not always, i think. There are some SSO solutions that behave like this, and password gets filled in fine.

  • Scary, there is a real danger for Bulgaria to go the same route, after brain drain rate at least reversed in the last years. Here's to hoping

  • Just thought of an example. If you want to, you can open a file at macroexpansion time, and generate code based on its contents. There are no limits, pretty much.

  • Both languages you mentioned i highly recommend.

    Lisp macros are another level, because they are part of the language - you can use all language primitives to transform forms however you like.

    Haskell will give you a different view of programming. It's beautiful and concise, and implements all sorts of academic research in languages. Ocaml is similar in many respects.

  • Lisp macros.

    But I'd be curious of the possibilities of generating code with tree sitter.

  • Ditto. Pity that a "renaissance" education is not in very high regard nowadays (or I'm not aware). It's where a lot of innovation happens, too.

  • mice

    Jump
  • Yeah all this free energy waiting to be harvested

  • Yes, it is. I find navigating s-exps way easier. Also it has some lispy features, and macros.

  • Nice. I am working on some improvements to parenscript, this might come in handy.

  • I wanted to make something similar for my mom's garden, but yours look way better than what I had in mind. Thanks.

  • Great answer. I am also a fresh "lead" and am struggling with some aspects, but as you said, clarifying the direction and working together are the most important ones. Pairing also allows you to explain things in more depth, which aids understanding.

    We don't do complex planning, usually have a few meetings and we start prototyping. So that's been a non-issue luckily as a lead. Detailed estimation can be really exhausting and takes a toll on the team.

  • Another cool thing I realized - you avoid the chance of some framework updating under you and breaking everything. It's a bit like pdf, it gets fixed and generally untouched.

  • A generator can help if you have a bunch of data that you need to convert to some html structure. I know what you are saying though, as little complexity as we can get away with, innit :)

  • For this reason I'm building my own generator in Common Lisp, leveraging cl-who and parenscript. All components are descibed in one place and render as web components, which allows me to attach dynamic behaviors easily.

    This works great for business-card style sites, deployed to netlify.

  • It does look pretty damn cool. One thing that bothers me is it is in the npm ecoystem :)

  • Concepts like Reactive programming are widely used in web/UI contexts. The problem of connecting a UI to an underlying data set is not trivial. Several frameworks deal with this.

    As was already said, concerns like Accessibility are studied academically. They have more to do with user experience than the technology, so not sure if they match your question.

  • Same. Writing code is FUN! However that's not the only goal there is. It's a part of the puzzle. Perhaps it takes some maturity to reach that point.

  • I also played with my kids on lan, and they love it. Had to discipline them a bit to water the plants 😀
