Way to project, retard. I don't even know any Lisp at all, but apparently people use it because clojure and racket are getting a lot of attention these days. I think you're just a C tard who has something to prove, to make up for your lack of "something" in your pants, so you picked the (pointlessly) hardest language to write code for correctly to be all macho and shit. I've seen your kind of retards posting on Usenet and ganging up on newbies who fuck up some C program (which is inevitable in any language, but even moreso in C) and they love to go all aggro at him and prove how much they memorized the C standard and how they know all the undefined behavior cases (this is the retard olympics at its finest!)
Keep training at C, moron. Maybe in another 50 years when you're in the nursing home, you'll finally figure out that you could have saved yourself all kinds of trouble simplying by writing in Ada or even Pascal.
If Lisp is so good, how come nobody has even made a text editor with it? No, Emacs doesn't count, it's not pure lisp
The irony is that both Ada and Pascal were considered bondage and Discipline languages; but modern C is much more restrictive than modern Ada/FreePascal.
Bondage and Discipline.
Javafags were desperate for a scripting language that would be less verbose than Java while still meeting project requirements and took whatever they could get. Having had to write Java, I don't blame them.
What about them? They're practically unused outside of academia and memes.
Everything you apropooed about me was wrong. I'm not projecting anything. I'm observing. Just look at this fucking thread, all that greentext is here in some form or another.
Lispers are massive poser faggots and I absolutely fucking hate poser faggots. Now I was just playing with some filters on LineageOS gallery app, which is written in Java and oh boy it works well, filter preview is instantenous. Yes that terrible horrible forced OO Java lispers lament about.
Fine, you posers can't write a goddamn basic 21st century advanced gui text editor with git integration and all that other basic shit taken for granted now, just admit it, everyone can witness it.
Well let's lower bar again, write a photo gallery like that with a bunch of filters then. Surely you can do that much if bunch of dudes in their free time manage to do it in such a horrible inferior language and get it to run in a few hundred devices too. Fucking posers!
anything past assembly isnt good and is for brainlets
Assembly is infantilized Intel bullshit that doesn't represent the way the processor really works
Intel's one of the very few hardware companies that let you write assembly the way the processor really works but brainlets couldn't handle it and the Itanium became the Itanic. If you want your head fucked with, check out how you write assembly for one. I had to do that a long time ago and it was mind bending. Compiler authors weren't prepared at that time.
Because those machines were faster in general. Because Intel and Motorola were good at making fast hardware, and Symbolics was a bunch of programmers trying to be a hardware company.
