Vue Native 8 years ago

I'm confused. Wouldn't "native" imply it uses platform widgets rather than HTML?

The Idea of Lisp 10 years ago

I use Common Lisp, and now sometimes Clojure. I don't get why folks call Clojure a modern-Lisp. I miss the cons cell abstraction, the multiple values support, condition system, the fast start-up times, the native compilation, and executables.

Stacktrace in Clojure with no possibility to restart also make me sad.

Often I forget to disconnect from IVPN while playing low latency games like FPS. I mostly don't notice.

Aren't fighter pilots obsolete at this point?

Much of the complexity in the craft is centered around keeping the poor bastard flying it, alive. Then there are pretty tight limits on how much acceleration the human body can receive. Pilot-less craft don't have those limitions, so I figure they should be much more maneuverable and less expensive.
