Nice to have, but how many of you actually using Common Lisp?

  I am as well.
• jsmcgd 18y ago
  Are you being a tease?
• Hexstream 18y ago
  Me. Wondering what's the real motivation behind that question though.
• briancooley 18y ago
  I am.
• qwph 18y ago
  Now I have a quick reference, I might start using Common Lisp.
• tdoggette 18y ago
  That question is rhetorical everywhere but here.

  I use Lisp whenever I can. I think most people who have been initiated into thinking in Lisp would prefer to use it over other languages in most circumstances. Many recent languages have grown to accommodate Lisp thinking in differently branded packages for this reason. It is fair to view Lisp as the ultimate high-level language that will persist as other languages come and go. The main reason is its ability to process itself. That's a key innovation that makes it more than just another programming language. There are programming languages, and then there is Lisp.
