Wouldn’t it be wonderful if, in the world of LLMs, Lisp became the new lingua franca, because we don’t have to convince humans that parens are scary, and because it enables exactly this kind of magic.

Full circle for Lisp as an AI language.

I think OpenLDK allow you to use the Java world for sbcl when you don't want to use Clojure or ABCL. But using OpenLDK requires you to pay the interop cost and when speed of the java libraries is not a sharp constrain.

I love lisp. I have fond memories of reading/studying Land of Lisp many years ago. Glad to see stuff like this being created.

Your "light mode" button doesn't work.

Incidentally, it looks like this idea also works with Jolt now. It's still in alpha stages, but works as a proof of concept. https://github.com/jlt-commons/jolt-openldk
