"compared to lisp, java looks like a DSL" -- pwned

dunno why i see so much universality in lisp .. since i heard about it, everything i see is a function with parameters ..
html forms are like a visual instanciation of a small macro (xxxx-form-action (fields)) that would expand some soft typing to from a monadic user input to typed entities to some kind of business result.

talking about monads ... typed streams seems to be some specialisation of the monad concept.. or maybe only a practical image maybe. but it helped me to feel confident about it, maybe ill try to hask someday.

on top of that i see bindings everywhere ... i think im ready to read the lambda papers of sussman.

worthless to say that i spent my day trying to read java code that looks meaningless to me. even if its at least the tenth time that i read it. even if its 98% working (the 2% last arent even implementation bugs but domain ones T_T)
I have to admit that this student know how to program for sure. No style, no polymorphism but he always uses some kind of minimum feature set to reach his goal.

lisp again, ... everybody agree, lisp is some kind of really high level language.. for once i wont go against the mass. but at the same time i felt that lisp was also like assembly .. i mean it has the same level of composition and freedom. and it has just been confirmed in "the ultimate OpCode". ^^
