I forgot I had a blog

It's plausible that I forgot it intentionally, and I did it so well that I forgot that I forgot it.

I still don't get to do anything with Lisp at work, but I'm studying Haskell in my spare time. My ideal language would have a Lisp syntax, a strong macro system, and a Hindley-Milner variant for a type system. I've been doing statically typed stuff so long that I'm really comfortable with static typing and I know enough about machine code to lust after type erasure.

I'm keeping an eye on BitC because it could be the real deal.
