They were able to pin point the root cause to a faulty fuel system caused by a a bug in the LISP software due to the fact that LISP programmers never do any error handling. Why do we still use LISP, or any functional programming language for that matter, in the year 2016. It's old and ugly and only used by Jewish academics who can't be bothered to learn how to create something useful.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6. “What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said. Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher. “So that the room will be empty.” At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

>>1 Professional software development standards forbid the use of error-handling in safety-critical applications, due to the potential adverse effect on performance.

You either don't know what Lisp is, or what a functional programming language is.

Literally the first 3 words of the Wikipedia article you fucking newbie. Next time at least attempt to figure out what you're talking about before you out yourself as a teenage retard hopping on whatever bandwagon he can to fit in. I'd like to tell you it gets better when you get older.

Is this a joke? Anyway citation needed, LISP programmers are as bad as pythonistas with letting their program crash wherever it feels like.
You either don't know what Lisp is, or what a functional programming language is.
So this is the part where you just project your rage and lack of knowledge without saying anything of substance to mask the fact that lithpers have no clue what they're talking about.
any sauce on this being a bug in lisp code? I wouldn't be surprised if it was (I like lithp but lithper claim that it allows writing bug-free code is laughable) but I couldn't find anything on that
>>7 Lol, "Lisp (historically, LISP)" means nobody capitalizes it anymore. Only those who have never actually been around the language, documentation, or community think it's still spelled like that. Capitalizing """LISP""" is the first way to tell somebody who doesn't know shit about Lisp. Just like closet homosexuals call others faggots, you're screaming "newbie!" to try to sound like a non-newbie.
LISP programmers are as bad as pythonistas with letting their program crash wherever it feels like.
So, [citation needed] from your end, buddy. Common Lisp is an industrial language, forged from projects that dare not crash, and allow for maintainers who need to fix running systems without downtime. Here's some reading for you: http://www.nhplace.com/kent/Papers/Condition-Handling-2001.html
So this is the part where you just project your rage and lack of knowledge without saying anything of substance to mask the fact that lithpers have no clue what they're talking about.
More laughable, incorrect garble, quoted for posterity. Again, just because you don't know Lisp doesn't mean others are in your boat.
>>11 Do you also complain about people who use ``proper quotes'', dipshit. It's really hard having conversations with mental midget delusional lithpers. I can't do this.
