Yes, I also dug into its codebase. Have you actually used Self for example?

LT didn't bring any new inventions, emacs, self, morphic, CL, they've all done some aspect of it 30 years earlier. LT has shown however that you can make a load of money of kicksta…

It's good that LT is finally acknowledged to have failed as "the uber clojure IDE". It's architecture is horrible, and its catering too much to other languages. Once it's dead the …

Just do public foo(Bar bar) { bar = baz(bar); //Lots (10+ lines) of code return finishProcess(bar); //Note, this should have been updatedBar. } nothing prevents you from reusing th…
