Sun Apr 26 04:10:41 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> While we're here, I'll note that being tied to text (perl) is quite limiting. On CLIM today I can tell any object how to "present" itself, i.e., how to draw itself on the screen. Such a thing is unthinkable in a language based around regexes.
Sun Apr 26 04:07:52 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> !s brick lisp
Sun Apr 26 04:05:35 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> way less mental fatigue looking at them, I've found << I suppose. One can learn to read most anything. The importance here is the triviality of generating "syntactically correct" program texts.
Sun Apr 26 04:03:30 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> s-expressions + read tables are the ultimate notational abstraction
Sun Apr 26 04:03:05 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> checkout the scala "macro" system sometime.

Sun Apr 26 04:02:19 UTC 2015 <trinque> gabriel_laddel: sure, seems you need code to be data to do metaprogramming well
Sun Apr 26 04:01:58 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> we know how ALGOL and meta-programming (tree-traversals) interact
Sun Apr 26 04:01:30 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> <trinque> seems relevant to the lisp vs perl thing << ummm... the angle I'm attacking this from is that meta-programming is inescapable and sexprs are the only sane way to go unless you want to program forth or APL.

Sun Apr 26 03:48:19 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> anyways, I ran across lots of juicy information.

Sun Apr 26 03:48:08 UTC 2015 <gabriel_laddel> I ended up trolling through gov. documents on the yucca mountain facility (I had previously quoted wikipedia)
Sun Apr 26 03:47:58 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> gabriel_laddel sure. which was this ?
