@alexshendi @amszmidt Splendid cityscape: "the world if phones had been Lisp machines".
(Also introducing a new trend: posting only the alt text, but not the picture.)

@alexshendi @amszmidt I have been wondering what an Emacs slash Lispm user interface should be on a touchscreen mobile device.

Update. I have now used PDP-6 ITS. It was a dream come true.

@me_ Tahoe?! Is Apple switching processor architecture again? Or rebasing the system onto 4.3BSD?
Also: Tahoe emulator anyone?

@ionchy I was using old outdated methods before they were cool. *beard grayness intensifies*

@qrios @troed This is the way. Not impressed by the Unix stubble. ^R is from the PDP-10; the beard is infinite.

@amszmidt I made an emulator that realistically exhibits the unusability of a VT100.

@amszmidt @crc As for Forth, two stacks, dictionary (another stack if you will), a handful of primitives, syntax made of tokens separated by whitespace.

@amszmidt @crc I think there are some serious and interesting points to be made. What is Lisp? What is Forth?
For the former, probably something about cons cells, atoms, functions, and S-expressions. I'd like this to include Scheme but exclude Dylan. But there's an angle where Scheme is kind of like the Esperanto of Lisp; it wants to make a clean break, so in this sense it's not part of the continuous Lisp lineage.

@amszmidt First you make your argument. I'm willing to humor your unsound reasoning. Then I can tell you why you're wrong.

@weekend_editor @amszmidt Is it still an ob"array" on the Lispm? Or just the Maclisp name sticking around? Asking for a fiend.

@0xba @Lee_Holmes This is the way. But honestly, can we expect people to remember that every time?
I work with weird file names like -READ- -THIS- so I have learned to use -- in my scripts. Even so, I sometimes forget.

@amszmidt @ksaj @loke I was also thinking of how "grandchild" is "barnbarn", and "grandson" is "sonson" or "dotterson", so in this case Swedish has both the specific and unspecific words. But I feel the preference would usually be "barnbarn".
By the way, also fun to note that in Northern England and Scotland they have the word "bairn" for child/barn. Old Norse influence?
