Re:Lincos language on Monday July 20, 2020 @02:53PM (#23900749)

I posted this because Alan Kay linked to it in the context of objects that come with their own interpreters: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11957719.

This was in the same thread where he and Rich Hickey discussed "data": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11945722, which was mentioned here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23891069.
