Saying that LISP is for writing code and Python is for reading code is like saying that cars are for travelling uphill and bicycles are for travelling downhill.

- mkramlich 16y agoyou're right though, even if you thought you were making fun of it because that was the OA's point: that if a developer wanted to optimize for going uphill, choose a car rather than a bicycle. downhill? bicycle will do that with less resources, waste, cost, pollution, volume passed through, etc. pick which is better given the context and optimization goals.
- kenjackson 16y agoWhile you were being facetious, I do think that I'd love a device that turned into a bike when I was going downhill and then a car when going uphill. At the very least... a motorized bike for going uphill (which obviously do exist).
