By functional do you actually mean impossible to use?

I can't create an account. No matter what I try, the app just keeps saying it don't wanna.

I don’t think that counts as an automatic opt-in, given that it’s presented to the user directly during the setup process.

I’m so glad they got rid of the moon. The new Gerudo emblem is so much cooler looking.

What are you talking about? Those are absolutely issues that are being worked on right here, right now. This framing is obviously false.

The large scale capital allocation of our society (I.e. the decisions about what will get done) are not putting many resources into those.

But that does not represent "we" nor "humanity". Those decisions are made by rather small group of super rich sociopaths.

I mean masses also do bad decisions. But, they specifically do not get to do capital allocation decisions.

Asking for a friend - how much resources are being spent on data center buildouts vs helping out society at large?

It’s a cute idea but I found it to be exceedingly unpleasant.

Who cares if it’s ludicrous? It’s a fun idea!

That it's ludicrous makes the effort more interesting!

Given that a lot of people use it in the wild I’m not sure where you’re getting that from.

It used to be the official logo. The project was called PLT Scheme at the time.

The skull didn't last long.

> Wtf kind of intro to a programming language doesn’t include syntax rules?

Given that most languages don’t have syntax rules or anything like it, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that most language introductions/overviews/tutorials don’t mention it.

Most? I question that.

In fact, what languages can you say do not have syntax rules?

C, python, java, Fortran, ruby, Common Lisp, Haskell, go, zig (I think), forth, swift, cobol, pretty much any language that doesn’t directly descent from Scheme.

syntax-rules refers specifically to Racket macros.

Since macros are a very important part of Racket, complaining that a friendly introduction mentions them is [insert non-friendly characterization].

Python and Java do not have any similar constructs

What’s the safari story look like right now?

Safari support is currently stalled in this PR: https://github.com/asciimoo/hister/pull/46. I do not have access to macOS, so help with development and testing would be very welcome.
