Yes, lisp dialects are powerful but there is no magic. The road to enlightenment is long and arduous and can not be put in an HN comment box. It's like I said in my original comment, the only way to get there is to just continue to write code and explore different paradigms and languages.
- ehurrell 12y agoYes, I agree, I think pragmatic discussion like this is important, the 'magic, beautiful, life-changing' hyperbole is probably better left alone in analysis I'd say.
- icebraining 12y agoI think what you can enlightenment is what others are calling magic.
- pmoriarty 12y agoI would not describe the road as long and arduous, so much as long and joyful. I have never used a language a fraction as fun as Scheme (except for Common Lisp, which is also quite fun).
