A different way of stating my remark is that it might be nice to have a page that lists other lisp variants and has a bullet point or two for saying how ArkScript does things differently in a way that someone might find nicer.

I’m no frontend dev, so I battle a lot with it so it displays how I want ; I tried with flex to center vertically the « getting started » section, will have to try again.

Yeah, I remember having to fight similar battles when I created a web page for a similar project! Don't worry about it if it proves too much of a pain.

Excellent! I got a bit concerned when my experimental infinite loop was able to run for over a minute. 😉

And the cool thing is: not only were you able to install this 6 years ago, you were able to install it 16 years as well!

Given that there are zillions of lisp variants out there, why would someone want to make serious use of this compared to something like Guile Scheme (or one of the other schemes)?

Having said that, the website and branding is really pretty!!! In particular, I absolutely love your usage of color gradients. Some minor feedback is that when the screen is wide, I think that would be nice if the "A small, lisp-inspired, functional scripting language / Get Started" element flowed to the middle relative vertically to the examples column rather than floating at the top. (I do like how it floats above the right column when the screen is narrow, though.)

Also, just to check, do you have a time limit set for the Playground so that people do not over-tax your system? (You might also look into WASM so that people run their scripts locally.)

A rare instance of a violation of Betteridge's law!

yeah no one is talking about this term.

Yes they were; that is exactly what "after they win seats in the midterms" means.

but you just have to look at bidens last term for your answer.

Democrats were not a majority in the Senate at any point in Biden's term, and even if you lump the independents in with them that only gave them an extremely narrow margin.

On top of that, they lost the House half-way through Biden's term.

The cuts are not so easily rolled back as long as Trump has veto power.

I suspect that having to wear skirts would have been more of a problem.

No wonder he refused to upstream it!

Imagining your death. :P

But seriously, it's perfectly sensible when remember that i is just the mathematical representation of "left turn", just like -1 is the mathematical representation of "go backwards"-- and as we know, two left turns sends you backwards. So think about this triangle in the following way:

Imagine you are a snail, starting at the origin. Now imagine that you walk forward 1 step along the horizontal line. Then you turn 90° to the left to start walking along the vertical line, but then, because you need to walk i steps along this line you take another 90° turn to the left, which means that you are now walking backwards and you end up back at the origin. How far away from the origin are you? Zero steps.

+1 actually a shower thought

Thank you, my human language parser is not fully operational at the moment so I actually appreciated this summary!
