David Nolens' Posterous blog, Lazy Evaluation vs. Macros. He really appreciates Lisp:
"The key insight of Lisp is that a programmer or a community of programmers should have have the whole of computation at their finger tips." Which goes in the direction I recommend: programmability.
"So the real question moving forward isn't "Is Lisp too powerful?", rather, "Are our mainstream programming languages and paradigms too damn weak?"."
What happened to software? Why is there so few creative software (2010)? Are we at the end of software? What are the forces which led to this situation, looking like a bit step backward to the epoch of non-programmable accounting machines? Is there a way out of this situation? Yes, and a very simple one: make good software. With invention. Developing models and abstractions. It is difficult but absolutely possible. It this re-start of software I wish to explore here in this blog. Welcome
