A computer scientist nigger admires anything complicated... the more
complicated, the more in awe he is. A physicist admires simple things.

If you make a really shitty operating system that is really complicated or a
fucked up compiler... all the niggers will stand in awe.

C is a plain and simple white farmer.
Lisp is a yogi.

"A design is complete not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to remove." -- Exupery

That's why curryniggers admire the JVM.

Exupery was a retard, then. What he described was "beautiful", not "complete". Completeness is precisely defined by the fact that there's nothing left to add.

A physicist admires simple things.

Citation needed!

Actually, physicists admire things that they get grant money for.

For what it's worth, I admire cocks. I'm not a physicist though.

You mistake ontological completeness for the functional completeness. So the only retard here is you, my subhuman afro-american friend.

You believe ontological completeness is different from functional completeness. So the only retard here is you, my subhuman afro-american friend.

Common Lisp is the simplest language. FORMAT and LOOP are practically mathematical objects like the natural numbers and the Booleans.

FORMAT and LOOP are about as mathematical as a JavaScript programmer.

Javascript was described as "we want to do lisp in the browser" to get its designer interested, if I remember that interview correctly... – Izkata

@Izkata: Indeed, Waldemar Horwat once told me that he viewed JavaScript as essentially Common Lisp with a C-like syntax. In fact Waldemar defined a metalanguage, wrote an interprepter for his metalanguage in Common Lisp, and then wrote the JavaScript spec in his metalanguage, thereby enabling him to actually run the specification. It was a clever technique. – Eric Lippert

It finally answers the question(What if Lisp was popular?)
JS==Scheme, Node.js==Common Lisp
Apparently all that was needed for Lithp to be popular is sane syntax and removal of more esoteric/expensive features.

At the same time, Parenscript is different from almost all other "language X" to JavaScript translators in that it imposes almost no overhead:

No runtime dependencies
Any piece of Parenscript code is runnable as-is. There are no JavaScript files to include.
Native types
Parenscript works entirely with native JavaScript datatypes. There are no new types introduced, and object prototypes are not touched.
Native calling convention
Any JavaScript code can be called without the need for bindings. Likewise, Parenscript can be used to make efficient, self-contained JavaScript libraries.
Readable code
Parenscript generates concise, formatted, idiomatic JavaScript code. Identifier names are preserved. This enables seamless debugging in tools like Firebug.
Efficiency
Parenscript introduces minimal overhead for advanced Common Lisp features. The generated code is almost as fast as hand-written JavaScript.

That's because they're the same language with different syntax.

Comp.lang.lisp posts which pre-date JavaScript have examples of "Lisp with C-like syntax" which look exactly like JavaScript. Some dude even used the function and var keywords just like JS does.

I think the world will be a better place if programming languages were more like JavaScript and less like Perl. (This is c.l.js. It's supposed to be OK to hold that opinion here.) JavaScript is based on simple, powerful, generally applicable mathematical concepts. Perl is based on a bunch of random crap that Larry Wall pulled out of his ass one day. Some people like random crap; I don't. The less random crap I have to deal with the happier I am.
