Hackers embrace new programming paradigms whole heartedly I guess. But I've seen so many fawning articles on Lisp (birthdate: 1958) that I'm tempted to stand by my original point: It's a slow-moving craft. EDIT: By the way, I was shocked to look at my own username's created date. 842 days. Jesus christ, time flies. Anyway, most of you probably don't realize that this forum was originally called "startup news" and was designed mainly for business, not "hacking" whatever that is. http://web.archive.org/web/20070221033032/http://news.ycombinator.com/ http://web.archive.org/web/20070221033032/http://news.ycombi...
