I have tried racket and it was fun enough but man those parens.

But racket is a really nice language to play with.


There are tools, particularly packages in Emacs, but also for VS Code and other IDEs, that make navigating nested s-expressions a breeze. And other tools for balancing parens automatically, and for syntax highlighting. You can just dim them if they are too visually jarring.


Another great company ycombinator funded... helping ICE and destroying lives everywhere.

Just another example of tech bros enriching themselves and destroying as much as they can along the way.


The wealth taxes on hexamillionaires+ can't come soon enough! Return to the '50s and implement 90% income taxes too on >$X MM/year, and on corporations after operating cost deductions but before dividends and buybacks. The Golden Age of the 20th century wasn't just because of America's post-war industrial monopoly, but also its laws and tax codes that kept a hard check on massive wealth accumulation.


lovely stuff... putting a renderer in make and writing about it is why hnews exists


Thanks!


Always the grift... corrupted to the core.


You are training your replacement.

The Supreme court currently is itself a joke. They are bought and paid for agents of Trump.

More vile destruction from the Trump admin.

Wonder who will help for fires now? Conservatives do hate trees I guess.


They love trees. What they hate is sharing their trees with everyone else!


Until now, timber salvage after wildfires hasn’t been suspicious; because of the way fires start. Tom Shultz comes from that industry.

This year is something like 20% snowpack.


Nothing says America first like making sure we all continue to get cancer so some shareholders make money


Because a good portion of the country voted for someone who wants to be a dictator. Fairly straightforward answer.


> Because a good portion of the country voted for someone who wants to be a dictator. Fairly straightforward answer.

But then the question is: why?

Protip: if your answer is something like "they're degenerates," you're just pompously congratulating yourself, having no empathy and knowing and learning nothing.

Conditions were created, and allowed to persist, that shouldn't have been tolerated. The political system failed, and recent events are just a symptom of that failure.


As others have mentioned you have to watch the battery if you do this for real.

The battery will swell and explode if you run 24x7 on a phone.
