That the methodology of lisp coding leads to less bugs. I'm not going to say that's true, but that's one of the points of the comic.

- _ph_ 5y agoI would phrase it a bit differently: Lisp gives you great tools for fighting bugs (which most code initially will have). In that sense, the comic i right. Also, given all the powerful features, the programmer is more productive and can spend more time on bug-hunting.
- civilized 5y agoPersonally I didn't get that message amid all the cutesiness, and I don't see how anyone would get that message if they weren't coming to the comic with that belief already. Preaching to the choir.
- mbrodersen 5y agoCan you elaborate on what Lisp gives you to fight bugs that other languages doesn’t have? I know Lisp quite well and I am not sure what specifically you are thinking about?
