The Lisp Curse (2011)

Re:The Lisp Curse (2011) by stray on Thursday February 25, 2016 @02:35PM (#11177121)

The software I produce at work is Ruby. I don't know that it's popular -- but it is central to a large company's operations.

But I generate and validate that Ruby code with Common Lisp -- in other words, I write Lisp that writes correct, idiomatic Ruby.

I would be very surprised if I were the only person doing this.

Have you written about this somewhere? I've love to read more about it.

Is it possible that you can share some information on this, if allowed by your company / employer? This is a first I've heard of this, sounds quite interesting.

I understand why you might want to do that, but why are your reasons for doing it?
