@akjcv@types.pl @haskal getting a roomette is more expensive but if you're sharing it and factor in the free meals and accommodations it’s not THAT much more expensive and very nice…

@aescling @akjcv@types.pl javascript isn’t actually a Lisp because code you write today on your machine will work tomorrow on someone else’s, but the fact remains that most of the people writing Javascript compilers and optimizers actually hate core features of the language

@aescling @akjcv@types.pl oh i was talking about proper tail calls (only implemented in Safari), Symbol.species (trying to be removed by Chromium), and all the stuff TypeScript implicitly leaves out in order to be remotely sensible as a language

@aescling @akjcv@types.pl evidence that javascript is just a weird lisp grows

@akjcv@types.pl “Finally, a Lisp compiler that does what it should...”

“It […] contains many known bugs. Not everything is fully implemented.”

maybe a little too on-the-nose…

@akjcv@types.pl ah, the ruby of lisps

@coriander the villains in Elementary are almost always either doctors, rich businessmen, or other cops they really nailed the profile of who is doing crime in New York

@coriander Elementary does a pretty good job of this; there are like two good cops but mostly it’s just Sherlock being an anarchist weirdo who works with them because they let him into buildings

@coriander the good news is that it was also definitely way cheaper to produce than Breath of the Wild

i think it will be fine; nintendo isn’t above making small-team, lower-budget, high-quality games to keep their IP fresh in-between blockbusters

@coriander oh yeah i mean 2D zelda is great and i’m sure it will be a fun game i just also know there is no way it is doing anywhere near the numbers of Breath of the Wild

it could be the best game ever made for the Switch and still never do anywhere near the numbers of Breath of the Wild, purely for genre reasons

@coriander excited for all the people who have been clamouring for a playable zelda for years to never play it because it’s a 2D action-puzzle game and not an open world cinematic adventure
