- moron4hire 14y agoYes, I think the advent of cheaply available hardware prototyping is making something like the Connection Machine and Transputers a more viable target for home-grown research. Wouldn't it be neat to be able to make a kit for building one's own Lisp machine, complete with an open, hackable, live-inspectable, Lisp OS? I.e. recreate 40 years ago. How about converting nodes between data storage and processing? There's just a lot of potential fun here.
