Funny you should mention Common Lisp, which has become the ultimate "no" language -- its spec has been cast in stone for a quarter century now. No threads, no module system (beyond packages), no new collection types, etc. etc. etc.
I'm not saying this is a good thing, but you seem to contradict yourself by liking CL at the same time you agree with Steve Yegge.
- gruseom 16y agoCommon Lisp, which has become the ultimate "no" language By historical accident. I'm talking about language design. Yegge says much the same thing about CL in the OP, by the way.
