Every time I come across a piece of writing by the author I wish to some day achieve such joy and love of programming.

Maybe it’s time to use more Lisps than Scripts.

If anybody starting out is reading this, I second the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programms recommendation. Wish I started with that as well, but it has been truly great even later into a programming career.

Excellent article. Worth reading for anyone interested in the Lisp family of languages. Author's other project, Pollen, is also very interesting.
