Hey, you're improving! You actually modified your spiel instead of only copy/pasting the last iteration of your smear campaign like last time. Way to go :D

PS : what happened to the "you can't make a web app in Racket" part?

Lol. Who is this person you’re replying to, and can we get them banned for being a troll?

I really don’t know what this guy’s talking about in other comments. Web apps seem super easy to put together in Racket. For those curious, see:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/web-server/index.html

https://docs.racket-lang.org/continue/index.html

(The troll also acknowledges that Arc is a neat language— apparently, they think that racket is a terrible language to write bad applications, but I guess it’s good enough to write a language to write good web applications in!)

(I have heard a Racket described as the “second best programming language, the best programming language is the one you use Racket to build!)
