    Presumably it gives the JIT more type information, parent example was specifically about one of the type-check functions you can use for guards (is_float). While running it'll use …

    (Self plug) There’s also a lisp in the decl macro system directly: https://github.com/RyanWelly/lisp-in-rs-macros

    Now I’m curious; what book of grammar was it? What did the exercises look like? What other languages and strategies did you use?

    What would you say some of these pros and cons would be? I don’t think anyone really speaks about the possible negatives of having strong mental imagery would be

    I really enjoy tiled words, thanks for making this new addition to my daily routine!

    At some point there was "the keyboard extension" which was somewhat vim like (kinda). It was too overpowered and you literally could not flag someone who was using it in ultra or h…

    I usually play chess with just my mousepad, so I've basically always just dragged and dropped. Playing click and click feels about the same speed, but I'm less used to it; maybe I'…

    Although in a Lisp such as Scheme, you could pass around the negation operator in something like (map - '(1 2 3)), so it would be a valid concern that it might clash.

    Implementing a lisp in the type system would be fun, that's originally what this project was about until I got distracted with macros. Awesome projects like fortraith ( https://git…
