Not planning on using OpenCL for your projects going forward.

Seriously, if you aren't learning OpenCL, you're going to be obsolete if you're a low-level C/C++ programmer, game programmer, AI programmer, etc.

List processing is shit because the hardware will never be as efficient for it. Now I don't want to hear you say "b-but Sussman, what about Lisp machines!?" It will always be a more efficient use of the electrons and transistors when they are employed for bounded homogenous arrays. Why? Because that's how the Universe works! Someone needs to make a new compiled Lisp-like language that provides abstractions for grid-computing and that uses OpenCL in the backend.
