I have about 2,700 characters in my flashcard pool which I started in May. I recently got hellotalk to practice with some Taiwan folk.

I’m so glad I’m not alone.

Isn’t this (in-package …) form just a namespace feature?

It is not only a namespace feature; it is first class. You can use find-package to fetch a package object and pass it around and manipulate. It looks like this can be done to some extent in C# as well.

For C# namespaces, exports carry over to different uses of the same namespace, but using statements go out of scope at the end of the current namespace use. That signals to me that imports are not related at all to namespaces. It seems that C++ acts similarly. From what I can tell Both C# and C++ allow for fully qualified names without any sort of import.

I have to agree with you about Rust: they goofed it up my trying to make too many rules about which libraries and symbols can be used in which places.

The final strawberry for me was forcing people to have 2fa.

True. They are not near as nicely integrated as lisp macros though.

1. Common Lisp
2. Haskell I guess
3. defmacro. This would probably involve changing the syntax to list form like axel does.

This exact thing happens to me.

Outer Wilds. It isn’t the whole game, but there are parts that will chill you to the bone.
