But at that point why use Lisp (which LLMs have been so far still to struggle to get matching parens every now and then)

What made Lisp cool and powerful goes away when you do it through an LLM.

I have a web framework running with a lisp interpreter built in, and I think it unlocks a LOT for the LLMs.

lisp can do things that make the currently accepted as standard best practice software engineering processes redundant, but it needs a different set of processes which I’m not sure are written about anywhere since apparently nobody is running with e.g. hot patching of application code

I'm doing fully interpreted Lisp with the AST stored in Postgres. I can access the REPL remotely and I honestly dont know if I'm ever going to build an API or CLI again

This sounds super interesting. Do you have any blog or pointers where I could read more about this?

Just to be clear this is not a release, lol, I just made it to show a couple buddies. My one friend was saying he learned a lot just by reading code and pointing Claude at it and asking questions about what he didn't understand. It is provided as-is with no warranty, or installation instructions. If you really get stoked about it I could probably clean up multi user stuff a bit to get you logged on, but I think even just the idea is pretty neat.

If you got it popular you could license it to AWS and sell it as an Elastic Lisp Machine or something
