Lisp actually kind of sucks and the community is insufferable but a lot of good things in computer science are unachievable without lambda calculus. Compilers, type inferencing, Rust's borrow checker, some parts of React, async/await desugaring all flow from monk-like practice of the lambda calculus. You could possibly invent these things as a Turing machinist but it'd be by stumbling backwards into them and likely doing a shitty job. |
