  > Lisp will blow your mind. If you're easy to impress and up until you have real world problem to solve. I have used Lisp for 20 years, it's basically a fun toy, nothing more. It's very hard to build anything production-hardened with it, nor anything really fast. What is the percentage of games built in Lisp ? What is the number of database back-end built in Lisp ? How many embedded platform firmware written in Lisp ? Lisp is an academic toy, fun to play with for sure, not something you want to turn to if your livelihood is involved - unless you're a fanatic.
