Overlapping. Some are the same, but the earlier team was Lisp hackers instead of MAD-Slip & FAP hackers, which makes sense and is almost a non-overlapping set of individuals IRL :-)

This has been picked up by a bunch of tech news sites. On Gizmodo someone wrote: “Hello World. OMG what the fuck happened while I was asleep?!!” Which is funny enough, but of course the next comment in response is: “How does that make you f

You want to be truly amazed, check out Newell’s IPL-V, which is a machine language for a stack machine, developed in the 1950s and used to implement the first AIs. It had every idea n Lisp except the parens.

Jeremy Braddock just (well, in October) published a scholarly yet extremely enjoyable book about The Firesign Theater, the brilliant 1970s-ERA audio improve group. Firesign often rolled technologies into their humor. In particular, the albu

Team ELIZA (and friends) are trying to make the original ~1965 MAD-SLIP ELIZA (discovered a few years ago in Jospeh Weizenbaum's MIT archives) run. A number of semi-overlapping groups are involved in this. Some have a 7090 emulator, so

Yeah. That's actually one of the things that makes this story so interesting: It took place exactly at the dawn of the inter(arap)net, and physically close to BBN (which was the arpanet implementor), so there was lots of sharing betwee

Not sure what you consider "production", but I used *Lisp extensively on the CM2 at Xerox PARC in the late 1980s. In fact, I published several papers based on this research.

We've just added two new runnable ELIZA adaptations to the ElizeGen collection. One is Steve Cherry's Apple II P-Lisp ELIZA, c. ~1980, put online by Ron Garret. (This one's been around for a while.) The other (brand new ...

BTW, I didn’t check every detail, but a card reader reading “up to 200 cards/min” sounded way wrong, as I recall it. And it is way wrong! The IBM 3505 could read up to 1200 cards/min.
