Lensflare17450176d@donkulator @TeachMeCode lol, it‘s the user that I have provided for Apple that is needed to make the review for the App Store.
I wasn’t expecting that they would write comments here 😂 -
kobenz868176d@retoor definitely the `define-syntax` thingy but also how I can basically quote shit up, mess with it and unquote it back into regular code. Continuations are pretty awesome as well. Having decent comparison ops, a great numerical tower and ports just cherry top it
it's just so much easier to reason about scheme code. -
kobenz868176dShit, sometimes I gotta bake a function or interface to avoid repeating a shitload of code and I just can't stop thinking about the overhead... Like, if it was scheme I could just cook a quick one liner macro for it and have the cake and eat it too

Lensflare17450176d@kobenz An eternity ago I’ve implemented a scheme interpreter for a uni project. From what I remember it was quite nice and interesting, but I can’t imagine developing stuff like apps or a backend with it.
I don’t really know why. Maybe I’m just too unfamiliar with it.
Do you think that you can practically develop anything with it or would you say that it’s only good for a specific kind of programs? -
kobenz868175dneither have I. With both of them. Enlightening as always, thanks, @Lensflare, I've made my choice. I'm job hunting a scheme position
I'd really like to write more scheme :/

shit... I wish my job was writing scheme
