Racket ftw

Racket's compilation phases are much better than Common Lisp's "one big mess" approach. Global mutables visible at compile-time only? Importing modules for use in macros only? Separate compilation where the compile-time mutability in one module can never sip into another? Fuck yeah to all of that. They've got like unlimited number of phases, i.e. 0 is runtime, 1 is expansion time, 2 is the expansion time of macros used in phase 1, etc.

I made a typeclass system with Racket macros in a jiffy, and it's even better than in Haskell as it has first-class instances. You can inspect instances, modify them, choose which one to call, etc.

Fuck yeah Racket!

C implicitly converts between floats and integers, despite they being completely different and incompatible objects, while conversion between them incurs high runtime cost. This leads to inefficient code, confusion and complicates semantics.
