[Expert]Interview with a Lambda[AMA]

So for something different, we're going to have a direct dialogue and focus on a one resident Lambda Arthur Calculus / Sgt Kabukiman(?) and ask him any questions we have, see what makes him tick, and what the future holds for the last man alive to have ever read the standard.

The snake of computing.

He is all that is wrong with Python.
He is the essence of spaghetti code.
The answer to /prog/snake's question.
The winner of "Snake".
His scales are as real as the buzz-word itself.
His calculus is Lambda. His machine is Turing.
Those who travel from his tail to his head learn his wisdom.
Those who travel from his head to his tail suffer great misfortune.
