Experimentation with Optimized Closures
There's docs about how the compiler generally does optimizations here: https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/blob/main/docs/optimizations.md

Load projects with dependencies on Repl
You should add your +1 to https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/issues/8764, which would add a syntax like #r: project ... to FSI.

Updated .NET Managed languages strategy - .NET
So when people are mad about MS and F#, one can see here that: https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/graphs/contributors MS does a lot more for F# then people being all pessimistic in reddit.

Ask HN: Is Clojure Dead?
Can't speak to the others, but I'm pretty sure the F# team just doubled or tripled in size (it's still small though). Also the GitHub repo is very active: https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp .
- Why is it not possible to pipeline .NET class methods?
- What are the features you're looking forward to in the next version of Fsharp?

Dada, an Experiement by the Creators of Rust
Yea, that's true. I forgot about that. I did think of Clojure CLR, but I don't get the impression that this is an all that natural or used implementation. ClojureScript is obviously much more used, although it is still a "different" language.

Ask HN: Does an equivalent of Clojure exist for .NET?
ClojureCLR can already run on .NET 5.0 , so at least it made it through the .NET Core migration. I'm sure they'll get it to 6.0 at some point.
- Clojure, but without the JVM?

Elixir Protocols vs. Clojure Multimethods
I recently found there was a clojure implementation for .NET and also one for the BEAM Virtual Machine. Has anyone used the latter? Regards

Scheme for embedding in .NET application
Maybe it's not exactly a scheme, but there's Clojure CLR and it's actively maintained: https://github.com/clojure/clojure-clr/wiki
