...I needn't worry about anything much, I could inspect the stack and CLOS if i wanted. I learned professionally to chug out GUI work for PCs for the time very low level and hand tuned, but I feel like I'm still wrangling the small stuff with lots of the js framework interface I do now. It's more painstaking than it is seeking inspiration, and the feeling of immaturity I get, please don't take this to demean the code quality in terms of value, but I mean in the consistency and fluency of APIs, leads me to much faster "brain fade" during a coding stint, than if i was corralling a CLOS like system. Bottom line, I think this is all about the way you mentally engage with your program, and that huge productivity growth lurks somewhere in the real subject of my head scratching. I think our minds just need a fluency, like music, and I have to reread GEB sometime soon to reconnect with the feelings I have on the problem.
