gollark: I like what Nim does. You can define AST→AST macros and simple substitution ones for common cases.
gollark: You can't really ensure they terminate *and* allow IO and the language's full power.
gollark: It does also seem to be a difficult problem to have large scale meshes without trusting everyone involved or manually configuring things.
gollark: Some sort of mesh networking would make more sense than everything having expensive hardware to communicate with a faraway tower, for that.
gollark: How do you do IR phased arrays? I thought you couldn't really control the phase well enough given the high frequency? Something something lasers?
