- glv 10y agoIt did later come out that Tom Lord wrote it, but not as a prank; he was working with RMS to build Guile, and this was the opening salvo in trying to build the case for it. RMS did post it under his own name.

If you don't know Lisp (or its variant, Scheme), you don't know what it means for a programming language to be powerful and elegant. Once you learn Lisp, you will see what is lacking in most other languages. [1] https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html
