There seems to be a lot of "Lisp is better than C/C++/..." articles around. I wonder why? If the purpose is to try and convince non-Lispers to use Lisp, a more convincing argument (for me at least) would be to demonstrate modern commercial software written faster and more bug free in Lisp. For example: "Here is a modern biz web application written in Lisp" showing step by step how Lisp makes the development process faster and less buggy than implementing the same application using (say) Typescript/C++. Notes: I use custom code generators to generate more than 90% of the Typescript/C++ code needed to implement biz applications. Leaving only the core biz logic. So macros for code generation doesn't really give me anything I don't have already. And using macros for defining my own DSL's within the language would just makes the code unreadable for other developers. So it is not a feature I actually want. |
