I'm aware of these, but thank you nevertheless. Clojure has plenty of nice things balancing the scales, so it's not all pain and misery!
The take I have is that with a dynamically typed language you still have a static analysis step. It’s just that the analysis happens in your and other developers’ brain and it is objectively worse. I honestly can’t think of a single thing in favor of dynamic typing.
I write Clojure in my day job and it’s insane how often we have issues where it would have been immediately caught by a static type check.
I don't have an ADHD diagnosis but clearly have some of the typical symptoms.
My brain is constantly in an obsessive state, meaning that I get an obsession about something and my brain just focuses on that single topic for some variable amount of time (days, weeks, months) until I get a new obsession. I'm quite unable to think (or do) anything else during that time.
Last November I experienced something that I have not experienced before. My mind was at peace. I had no obsession for at least two weeks. It felt amazing, I was so content.
I started to read Wizard of Earthsea, which I finished few days later. Then I read Tombs of Atuan in a few days as well. I read The Farthest Shore about halfway before my brain rebooted into its usual obsessive state. This was the most I'd read in almost 10 years!
I wish I could experience that peace of mind once again.

It's doom-nord from the doom-themes package.
Also better look and feel[1] for Mac (including dark mode) users with
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(ns-transparent-titlebar . t))
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(ns-appearance . dark))

Git really should have issue and merge/pull request data shipped with the repository. Does anyone know if this has been planned or not?
What, no id[1] in the major companies?
EDIT: Nevermind I found it way down the list, but still, id is pretty major company when it comes to games.

Not really related to the article, but would you look at that web page. This is what all of them should look like! Nothing fancy, just good content, 64.91KB in total.
Currently there's only a tokenizer/parser implementation publicly available. I'm currently working on the type system.
Progress has been a bit slow, but I will be posting here on HN if I end up making something worthwhile.
This is something that I'm actually writing for my own programming language, coincidentally also written in Rust.
My idea was to label each expression with these flags, i.e. is the expression constant?, tail recursive?, etc., and then make that information available for the text editor and other tooling, so the user can instantly see certain things about their program, and see the type of optimizations the compiler will do for them.
Maybe they could add an option to order an on-demand print from a service like Lulu.com
I think he means the CLI.
3.5 Use object method shorthand.
I disagree. With anonymous objects it breaks the syntactical uniformity of the expression. I think it is much clearer when each field is given a name(and a value) the same way.

What about layout versions for different screen-sizes, orientations, etc.?
I wish I could use 'type' as a variable name or as a field on a struct. It's one of the most used identifier names and the inability to use it is frustrating.
I wonder how many people contributed under the assumption that their contributions would remain under GPL. I assume the CLA specifies their right to change the license?
I was thinking what GNU could be if they launched GitLab or some alternative to replace the archaic Savannah. It could take the project to a whole new level.
An honest question: Isn't it that in some legal systems, an absence of license means public domain?
What is wrong with standard unix timestamps?
