- angersock 12y agoAh yes, but a small userbase!
- pkhagah 12y agoIf you're talking about userbase, I presume, Go should have less of a userbase than lisp.
- deeviant 12y agoPeople use lisp for something other than a programming discussion talking point?
- reportingsjr 12y agoThe message board that you posted this to. Written in Arc which is a dialect of lisp.
- deeviant 12y agoSo you mean they use it to create an application that allows them to... talk about lisp.
- angersock 12y agoSo, the correct answer here would've been that Viaweb--Graham's company that later became Yahoo! Store--was done in Common Lisp. I'm not really aware of any other example of Common Lisp in a real commercial setting other than Mirai (which I think is dead nowadays anyway). Graham later made Arc, the language in which HN is written. To the best of my knowledge Arc's only major project is in fact Hacker News. So, essentially, yes, you're correct.
