Lots of people have pointed out the advantage of https://foo.bar/ or foo->bar for syntax. It makes it easy to explore things you can do with foo. I think it's an instance of a more general pattern: prefix syntax that an IDE can spot. This has interesting consequences!

@cstanhope A friend also pointed out hotels dot com :). I do think they're rare though.

I was slightly shocked when a Common Lisper first pointed out to me that macros are syntactic. For example, threading macros aren't limited to function composition. (->> "UTC" (current-time-string (current-time)) (lambda ())) This elisp is building a closure!
