Some APL environments such as ngn/apl[0] allow tab completion like |o<tab> results in ⌽. This is probably available on tryapl.org too, but I can't test it when it's down :/. It may also be available in the full dyalog apl product and IDE.

EDIT: see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27462828 too

(not parent) personally I would like to see [trains](https://aplwiki.com/wiki/Tacit_programming#Trains) in more languages, though the way they are implemented in APL is pretty spotty (e.g. the length of a train changes its semantics)

I agree, but you have to take extensibility into account. You either have an extensible language and extend it[0], you make it an array language to the core, or you just have a few slightly convenient functions (not a language). (I don't have enough experience to judge which category Pandas / numpy are in)

Should I have linked to project gutenberg or some other version? I linked to the mobile version because it doesn't have many sidebars or footers.

I didn't know that about the name. Should we pronounce it /ˈɡɒdoʊ/ like wikipedia says the play's name is pronounced?

I've only tried Glyphr[0] because it's online and gbdfed because it was in my linux distro's package manager and it was small (turns out it was a bitmap editor, which was fun to try out, but now I have a .bdf file that I don't know how to use). I can't really recommend these because they are the only ones I've tried, but Glyphr is simple though it doesn't have that many features.

Then find a way to use the font, like on a website, and you'll notice any problems or ugly parts.

I use a custom font[1] I made ;). I'm still learning bits of typography, so it's not the most legible, but it was fun to make.

Common Lisp[1] is pretty easy to set up, you can use portacle[2]. It's also one of the oldest and most popular. If portacle isn't in the repos, sbcl[3] is.

EDIT: For reading you can try Practical Common Lisp[4] or the Land of Lisp[5] if you want a dead tree. These I've read but there are more[6].

It's a small game, they could port the entire game to another language or platform pretty easily.

I agree that Gitea looks a lot more like Github (but with a dark theme!), and I think this is a good thing. I also like Gitea because it doesn't have reCaptcha or other proprietary components, but it doesn't seem to have the advanced ('Enterprise') features that Gitlab does (I program as a hobby so I've never needed these). When Gitea has grown and is more accepted, I hope the Wikimedia Foundation will consider using it.

I need clarification: is this Mediawiki or Wikimedia moving to gitlab? It seems the Wikimedia foundation is moving their code, so why is this on mediawiki.org?

I enjoy lisp/scheme syntax, but I'm especially impressed by lua's simple, readable, flexible, whitespace-insensitive-but-whitespace-friendly syntax. It is a bit more complicated than scheme's, but more intuitive because you don't need to explain quasi-quoting and other lisp-specific stuff. https://www.lua.org/manual/5.4/manual.html#9

As a new user, I was able to get a pronounceable(ish) 4-letter username. It's not always hard. But Prologue is an English word and a lot of English words are taken. (and probably many words in other languages, too)
