#2I found forth a pretty interesting language. Started collecting some useful links if anyone else wants to get started. https://github.com/owainlewis/awesome-forth

#3I still write some Forth occasionally, it's really awesome for embedded systems, as it runs on little MCUs like AVR. It's so cool to update the program without reflashing the MCU, and have potentially have an interactive interpreter on such low resource processors.
I think becoming proficient with Forth has also made me a better programmer in other languages; for example stack based iterative replacements for recursion come easier, as well as other stack based algorithms. It also makes understand the CPython VM a lot easier.

#6I have a soft spot for stack-based languages.
Anyone played around with Factor?

That's incredible. You should make a front page post of it.

Yes, it's truly a joy to program in. It's also covered pretty well in Seven more languages in Seven weeks.

#10It's kind of a shame that you don't hear more about forth.
