Somehow I read this as "my mental model of self was wrong" and it totally resonated with me.
Then I saw it was about LISP, which I don't know/use and got a little bummed out.
Now maybe my mental model of self is wrong and I need to learn LISP and create a mental model for setf and that will lead me to an awakening of a correct mental model of self?
- monarchwadia 2y agoAm also similarly bummed :)
- layer8 2y agoSounds like your mental model of the title was wrong. ;)

- msla 2y agoI think you need to learn Smalltalk to have a mental model of Self: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_%28programming_language%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_%28programming_language%2...
- cypherpunks01 2y agoSame. I was reminded of a quote I like from a Mongolian Buddhist lama: "It's not that you're not real. We all think we're real, and that's not wrong. You are real. But you think you're really real — you exaggerated."
