Why are lispers so smug and elitist?

Kinda obvious. LISP is a dead language, so people try to learn it to act like they did something amazing.

Fuck you ANUS faggot. Common Lisp has more features than most of the toy languages you hipsters pretend to come up with these days.

why don't more people use it then?

because you can't write non-trivial programs in it

I think Crash Bandicoot was written in LISP. That was a cool game.

And yes, we do run security checks on your code before we parse it. We’re not n00bs, thankyouverymuch.

I wonder how easy those are to circumvent

Knowing lispers, it's a lookup table of the current vulns, updated manually with each release.

They weren't written in Lisp, but in a high level assembly language with lisp-like syntax. I.e. it was more similar to plain C. Even Symta is closer to Lisp.

And these games were super-optimized, the reason they used assembly, because of C compiler of the time generating totally garbage code. That is why Crash Bandicoot looks better than any other game on the PSX.

Unlike functional language you can write non-trivial programs in Common Lisp. It's a general purpose programming language with a huge library, a decent community, and CFFI. There's nothing stopping you.

Then why has nobody done it yet?

They have. You're head is just too far up your ass to realize.

an os which holds the all time title of input latency? was that even in cl?

there is literally more relevant software written in arc.

Don't change these.
