I worked for a company where the main workflow was to download an entire postgres dump at the start of the day and work off that. It took 25 min. I aliased our download command to play run a profane version of `say "beep beep"` after it finished. Then one time it spoke up during our stand up and everyone heard. It got more polite thereafter.

The whole point of homoiconicity is that a language (lisp) is implemented in itself. This is lisp implemented in python (not itself).

"antennas so big that we cannot even simulate their behavior. " - does anyone know what that means?

I wonder what that will mean for charging infrastructure that suddenly has to deliver 10x power to enable that. Not sure that sort of charging could be as ubiquitously placed as gas stations
