Renzo Borgatti (twitter.com/reborg) will be presenting: “A Tale of Lisp”
Lisp is one of the oldest languages and it has a long and fascinating
story. It went from being popular and well funded to a period of
relative abandonment. In more modern times we’ve seen a resurgence of
functional languages, including the return of Lisp to the mainstream
with Clojure. Surely this must be the time that functional takes over?
In this talk we are going to learn from the past remembering the
fascinating history of Lisp, drawing conclusions about the present and
ultimately ask ourselves what makes a language popular.
