My [LIL language](http://github.com/badsector/lil) does that and it is indeed slower than Ruby, but it is a feature not a bug :-). The language works by performing string substitutions in a similar manner to Tcl. There *are* ways the speed could be improved, like for example not using linear search in name lookups :-)...

I think because that's what web based SCM interfaces have always done, for example [here's a directory in the W3C's cvsweb](http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/webfonts/WOFF/DoC/). It might be useful if your commit messages were only ever relevant to one file at a time?

Is there a mathematical way to solve this? I could do it brute-force, of course, but that's less fun.

The original Macintosh OS was not written in C. I certainly recognise Dennis Ritchie's massive impact on computer science, but playing a game of 'whose death is sadder' seems inappropriate to me. Can't we recognise that both men made great contributions to the world, but in different ways?

Hi, Thanks, I have changed the wording re: generics. They still feel more Java-like than C#-like, due to the weak typechecking. Any List<T> is List<Dynamic>, and even in type-checked mode, mixing of List<T> and List<Dynamic> won't, I believe, issue any kind of diagnostic. However, T itself is ...

Just one Environment type, any number of dependency traits. If it's unwieldy to have lots of dependency traits, you can certainly combine them into a single Environment trait, but you get some nice compile-time checks if you split them up - you can ensure that client classes will only be able to access specific functio...

Do type annotations only currently have no effect on runtime when compiling to Javascript, or is it also already decided that they won't have an effect on runtime in a specialized Dart VM? BTW your example doesn't really show that generics are reified. The compiler could just be using the static type information in th...

You don't need a decidable logic for program synthesis (in fact, moving to first-order logic already means you're undecidable, never mind higher-order logic). You just need to be prepared to wait a very long time for the program to be synthesised, or for the synthesiser to not halt at all. Also, there's something tha...

Yeah, I was thinking about this actually, and an Environment is precisely what a Spring Context is anyway - and we've had to put a lot of work into making our contexts useful for overriding dependencies @ testing. I might use this environment thing to demonstrate Scala's possibilities at work. :)
