- yellowapple 11y agoThat's an old version of the Jargon File, yes, with annotations suggesting that somehow hackerdom is permanently resigned to Lisp and anti-Unix philosophies. While I personally do lean more toward the Lisper realm than the Unix-weenie realm in most of my beliefs, I also happen to have an appreciation for the Jargon File as maintained by ESR and others for actually trying to document evolution in the broader hacker culture. The whole "well ESR's jargon.txt ain't the real jargon.txt" seems closed-minded and ignorant to me.
