I would read that blog as well. I can't use CL at work but I'm always interested.

Thank you so much for that!

It's something that I'd love to do, especially as there aren't many people using it in production, or at least talking about it, and I think that showing people it's a viable language could be important.

It's a shame that we as a community still throw around the Grammarly article as proof of people using it, I wish we had more recent examples.

Same here, I'm interested in the finance angle as well. I've written a few crypto arbitrage bots for fun over the years, and now that I'm deep in the Lisp hype phase, I really want to do it in Common Lisp. I'm already vibrating at the idea of being able to introspect its operation from day 1.

Also, now that I've decided to go solo-entrepreneur, there is no one that can laugh at me if I decide to use CL for a core system.

Looking forward to reading your blog.

The hype phase won't disappear unfortunately. Sorry about that.

Especially in finance where most of the effort is geared towards data and data manipulation, it's almost a super power being able to work with live data and live systems. Your development speed is going to 10x.

I wish you all the best on your journey! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Another blog I would read...
