It's interesting that this software is using NPM as package manager even if it's written in Shell itself.

I love little languages like this one! Just look at the source — it's still so readable and easy to understand, and the size — I could read through it in an evening!

It reminds me a bit of diy-lisp where you implemented Lisp in Python yourself! https://github.com/daGrevis/diy-lisp

Not everything has to be useful or even sane. Especially on _Hacker_ News.

Edit: To clarify, I think this shows what hacking is all about. Playful cleverness and curiosity.

Looks great! Especially I like the clean design.

I'm waiting for DevDocs.io support for Clojure thought because there's nothing better than all docs in one place.

daGrevis — Mon, 09 Jun 2014 18:51:22 +0000

How can buttons be responsive? And why there are two hyphens in some, not all, classes like “btn--full“ or “btn--m“?

New comment by daGrevis in "HipHop: A "Popcorn Time" for music"

daGrevis — Thu, 05 Jun 2014 07:40:00 +0000

The main selling point of Popcorn Time is that it allows to watch movies more easily than solutions that asks money for that. I don't think music industry has this problem — there are services like Spotify, Rdio and many more that offers painless listening.

That aside, the app looks really polished and I'm glad it has Linux support backed in.

New comment by daGrevis in "Micro Python – a lean and efficient implementation of Python 3"

daGrevis — Tue, 03 Jun 2014 19:09:50 +0000

If someone is wondering what's going on with unicode support:

> No unicode support is actually implemented. Python3 calls for strict difference between str and bytes data types (unlike Python2, which has neutral unified data type for strings and binary data, and separates out unicode data type). MicroPython faithfully implements str/bytes separation, but currently, underlying str implementation is the same as bytes. This means strings in MicroPython are not unicode, but 8-bit characters (fully binary-clean).

The cool thing about diy-lisp is that at the end you implement standard library of your language in, well, your language![0]
