The history of compiling for first-class continuations, first-class environments has shown that a little effort reduces the tax for *not* using them can be fairly low, and the cost *for* using them can be lower than one might at first expect.
I would be willing to be the same is true for fexprs once some experience is gained compiling for them in a modern language with modern compilation techniques.
Hey, how are things on Twitter? I have reduced my commercial social networks down to just Google+. And I am gearing up to build something via unhosted, webrtc, etc. (Although I think xmpp may be necessary to bridge the gap until webrtc for data is available.)
The one downside for the time being is... everyone is holding every conversation on Twitter.
I think you overreacted a bit with leaving Twitter (especially if you continue to use G+) :-)
I'm also working on unhosted/webrtc stuff, so maybe we can collab. Need to do a writeup...
Being off twitter is refreshing, except for the part where everyone else is on twitter. I'll be happier still when I give up G+, but it's my remaining outlet for now.amazing
re: collab on unhosted/webrtc, definitely. At a minimum we can compare notes, and either develop some common bits or at least make sure they can all get along with each other.
If you start a little write up about unhosted/webrtc then I won't have to continue distracting this wonderful llama from paying attention to fexprs.
Oh, and going back a few days where someone was speculating on what an imperative OOP reactive environment would be like: please tell him it was done already. More than once. e.g. ThingLab in Smalltalk, Loops in Lisp.
