  Thanks. Looks neat. Will see a bit more of it. Of course the next question is, why they abandoned it, and reading this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3815491 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3815491 My translation of this is they had bug which came from the libs which they couldnt fix.

  Maybe thid is not a showcase of 'superpower'. From what I read it took a whole summer to write in lisp and the rewrite in python took a weekend. (But will try to double check this)

And one guy in comp.lang.lisp wrote a working Reddit 1.0 clone in Lisp in 4 hours: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.lisp/9WD9-yEaqMs/HJzbZtoESl0J https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.lisp/9WD9-yEaqMs/H...

      It didnt seem to be online for a significant amount of time? How would one know it worked (and was mantainable)?
