Ask HN: Who's using Lisp today?
I know that in the past several companies like Viaweb and Reddit have used Lisp for their production services. After reading Hackers & Painters I've been motivated to deepen my Lisp knowledge, so I'm wondering, who's using Lisp in their production systems today?
I know HN does, but is there any other known website currently using it?
