I just connected my hard disc to my PC using both Firewire and USB cables. It was intense.

I'm trying to study for a very ENTERPRISE exam tomorrow about Oracle object-oriented databases and data warehouses, but the only thing I can think about is how to implement a textboard software in LISP. Damn you, /prog/.

PROTIP: You can't.

Use an Oracle object-oriented backend, and store each character as a separate object with its own value and encoding.
These are again stored as Cons'es with a Car and a Cdr attribute, of course.
This might sound grossly inefficient to you, but a true LISP programmer won't care as long as the representation is mathematically correct, and computer memory is so cheap nowadays, and it's cheaper to buy more hardware than to hire competent programmers, and soon it'll be the future and all efficiency problems will magically disappear anyway. Paul Graham agreed, don't bother him about it.

In 1921, the Sussman and the Abelson were discussing the latest supercomputer on the market, a 2 GHz monster of a beast taking up several African countries of space, which was fueled by incinerating negro babies.

"That be one damn fayn machin'!" said the Abelson.

"I don't see when it has over my 2 Hz Scheme interpreter." said the Sussman.

"Oh come on-a, with this we could probably switch to some easier-to-use language, like Python."

"ONE WORD. THE FORCED INDENTATION OF CODE. DISCUSSION OVER!"

That's rather cynical.
