Lisp
You can use it for one off hacks and prototyping stuff
Well said.

So did I. I saw his posts on c.l.l when I was a smug lisp weenie. He's funny, like some kind of Richard Dean Anderson of programming.

Did you find this from the ``Common lisp's fixable issues" thread?

The funny thing is he is rambling incoherently about a load of crap but I know exactly what he's talking about.

I guess so. One of them threads, anyway. I've recently been checking c.l.l again. He kind of makes me want to write an application.

    `Functor' is not applied to enough type arguments

Did anybody see the widget rant? I mentally responded, "Thank CDR I'm not the only one who thinks these are a bad idea!"

Prelude> import Control.Monad.Fix

<interactive>:1:16:
    Ambiguous type variable `f' in the constraint:

    Probable fix: add a type signature that fixes these type variable(s)

IT WAS HANDLING BETTER AT 140 THAN IT DID AT 50! ....... Same thing with Lisp.

Typical crazy arrogant American, I guess. And he says he is in the
path of Buddhism? He is in the path of foolishness.

I think he is not doing any good to the CL community. Probably he his
responsible in a high percentage of people being aware of Lisp.  The
other day I was talking in #Clojure, very respectful people, and
talked about c.l.l. They agreed that in c.l.l there are very closed
mind and hostile people... well ok, but sadly c.l.l is still the heart
of the Lisp community.

     A married couple were considering moving to a new town.  They came
     to visit and, while driving in, they saw an old farmer working in
     his field.  They approached the man and asked "What are the people
     like in this town?"

     The farmer asked them "What are the people like in the town where
     you live?"

     "Oh, they're horrible." said the woman.  "Unfriendly, boring, never
     a kind word about anyone, and very stand-offish."

     "Well," said the farmer, "I expect you'll find folks around here
     just the same."

     The next day another couple contemplating moving came by and asked
     the old farmer the same question.  "What are the people like in the
     town where you live?" he asked, again.

     "Oh, they're wonderful!" said the couple.  "Friendly, interesting,
     always willing to help someone out."

     "Well," said the farmer, "I expect you'll find folks around here
     just the same."

Just another crazy, arrogant American on the eightfold path,

Patrick
