Will these kinds of software end up like a programs written with bespoke Lisp macros? Lots of power but only one person actually knows it by heart.

If cryptobros didn't flaunt their wealth, crypto wouldn't have been where it is now. Flaunting is part of the spec.

I’ve been thinking about this in the context of my kids.

I am a bit of a snob (a huge one if I’m being honest) about media I consume. Naturally I guide the content my kids watch quite closely, much closer than my peers. I am their curator.

But I can’t help but feel I am isolating my kids when I do this. The things they watch and listen and play and read at home are vastly different than other kids their age.

Ahh right. Yes I am in fact conflating the two.

But can the compiler be used without the library? Or can the library be used without the compiler/would it still be beneficial?

While the level of commitment to backwards compatibility is commendable, I had hoped this would trigger dropping GCL instead of forking it.

My surface level understanding is that GCL is a big reason why 3rd party libraries are a huge pain to use in Clojurescript.

Of course this would have went completely against the project’s goals, so it was never going to happen.

Yeah but you can't raise trillions of dollars with that. Investors want to be able to tell to their friends at parties that they helped made blackhole tech possible.
