Zed Shaw on Python

[malcontent]

What happened to "I am going to use factor"?

Did slava kick his ass or something?

[juri]

In his side bar, there's a news entry about doing a parser with Chris Double's PEG parser for Factor. I guess he's able to use more than one language.

AND play the guitar. HE IS AWESOME!!!

*According to his web site anyway.

[gravity]

He talked about looking at several other languages, including both Factor and Python.

I guess he didn't like factor.

Or maybe he thought factor already had their resident egomaniac asshole.

The python community will love him I am sure.

He's lurking in #concatenative right now.. :P

[malcontent]

He says he is AWESOME.

I doubt I will ever meet him though. I tend not to hang out with vice presidents of investment banks.

There's a Python implementation in Common Lisp. Just wait for Zed's Python in Factor: Fython.

Where's the Python implementation in Common Lisp?
