The schedule grows small. I have stopped writing new Elisp and will learn CL in order to adopt Lem.

A few years back, this schedule included smart voices attempting to exercise some cultural leadership. It was bright, well-meaning, and largely right. Being right does not stop RMS. It inspires him to travel in an alternative direction of his choosing for the rest of his life.

    Could you expand on your comment a bit please? I've not heard of Lem before now. How does it compare to Emacs? Also your comment about cultural leadership. I'm not sure what you're referring to specifically. (Asking in good faith out of curiosity).

      Lem is an Emacs-like editor built in Common Lisp. It's very impressive and usable for its age and I can see why some people see it as a better Emacs. Still has nowhere near the mindshare of Emacs, though, and it has a long way to go before it can match the Emacs ecosystem.

      GP is a longstanding pita in the emacs community who has yet to come to terms that FOSS is an financial black hole.
