Racket Language
Racket is my favorite language. It's fast, practical, has solid foundations and an extremely nice concurrency story (based on concepts borrowed and extended from Concurrent ML). It has an excellent documentation system, with an integrated package ecosystem, which means that most packages have high quality documentation with cross-references. It has a great backwards-compatibility story -- a lot better than Python's, for example, which I use in my current dayjob. So, my impression of the commenters saying it's too academic or not practical is that they probably never dove deeply enough, or they are students who were only exposed to the teaching languages in the past. It's definitely not perfect: the community is small, the runtime has a high memory baseline, parallelism requires spinning up a Racket VM per system thread, among others, but these are things that will improve over time.
In the past several years, I've:
* built & run an e-commerce site written in Racket[1]
* built a native macOS and iOS reminders app, available on the App Store [2, 3, 4]
* built a cross-platform desktop client for Apache Kafka [5, 6, 7]
* built a `#lang` for Lua [8]
Among[9] other[10] things[11]. I think that's all pretty practical stuff!

Ask HN: What Are You Working on This Year?
My goal for this year is to continue building (mainly Mac and iOS) apps (like Remember[1] and Franz[2]) using Racket and to help improve the language and ecosystem in any way I can.

An Introduction to the WARC File
A bit of a late response, but yes I've been storing full text of every website I visit and it's excellent for finding stuff again.
The idea is to index pages as you visit them using a browser extension, thus avoiding all the pitfalls of being treated like a bot.
Here's the project: https://github.com/iansinnott/full-text-tabs-forever

Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
A quick DDG shows this github repo - same username on HN and GH, so one can assume this is the source: https://github.com/iansinnott/full-text-tabs-forever
Standard disclaimer: the version on Chrome Web Store could be different than the Github Repo.
