Mr. Atlas, since this seems to be only your second contribution to the racket-users list (the first was yesterday) I'm reluctant to impute much weight to your views, since I can't verify that there's a sincere human behind them.
In any case, I can agree with you on the value of education. But the idea that lowering barriers is equivalent to "ruining community", "lying to people", and "insult[ing] people who are already in the project" — no, I don't agree, and those ideas are inconsistent with everything I've learned about how Racket operates. > On Jul 25, 2019, at 8:58 AM, Atlas Atlas <peacekeeperat...@gmail.com> wrote: > > 1.
