Read doug hoyte then come back and tell me static typing is better ecl is good for live servers (eg. “web”) for obvious reasons every person who “uses lisp at work” refuses to share details so I know that lisp in production does not exist and they are larping solving the problem with a well-fitted language and modifying the (lisp) compiler mogs leet coders because of Kolomogorov complexity (see Graham’s stuff) props to style_warning for making his username a lisp shibboleth Before vibecoding I knew plenty of stack overflow copy-pasters etc. Before vibecode it was still the case that your average interviewee could not solve a basic coding question. Reading a programming book and doing some of the exercises will take you farther than l33tcode bullshit ever will. You can also be vaccinated against AI retardation. Also before vibecode I started to notice that 99% of the time I could solve problems with unix-philosophy tools and duct tape instead of reinventing the wheel. There is so much stuff on the internet which is easily accessible. This is still the case although the well has been poisoned quite a bit because tools rarely work anymore.
