Hi all! Main argument was, that only with Lisp i can mathematically, formally proof, that my programs *are safe*. Demand for safe programs, libraries of all kinds is going through the roof.

Base was this paper here: http://www.cse.chalmers.se/research/group/logic/TypesSS05/Extra/lectnotes_vol1.pdf It has a good reason, why Lisp is also deeply sticking behind Webassembly, the standardized browser container format - and - hopefully - the new upcoming server container format, with S-Expressions at its base: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebAssembly/Understanding_the_text_format https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-langs/blob/master/README.md Unbelievable, all that language support, that now is translating to Lisp, isn't it? Pure fun! Formal verifiers - behind the scenes - then will ensure, that everything uploaded (by customers) will precisely follow its predefined specifications isand not doing - by evil code injection - anything other than that! Execution will instantly terminate then. That prototype is finished now, in the testing. And those containers will run on ultra cheap, ultra fast - Lisp executing ASICs with their own TCP/IP stack - in the very short future. Stay tuned. That's why most my software now is implemented in Lisp, most parts in PicoLisp. It's a nice, handy, easy to learn Lisp dialect and libraries are sufficiently complete, nothing important missing. Best of Picolisp is PILOG, the Prolog interpreter that can run on top of a distributed, self replicating, ultra fast persisting database, that comes for free with Picolisp, very much like (or even better) than Closure(Script) with its ultra expensive commercial DATOMIC database. This makes PicoLisp a total killer ... and is coming for free! That's just unbelievable! Nothing else in the world does even come close to that expressiveness and capabilities!!!! Even if i am repeating myself: "PicoLisp, in its design, is a genius strike!" And you? What where your motives to switch to PicoLisp? Best regards, Guido Stepken
