On: Lisp Deserves a Fresh Look (2006)

[fbu]

"Martian question 3: Arent your machines getting faster much more quickly than your programmers are getting smarter?"

I found this to be a nice quote for high level programming.

[joe_the_user → fbu]

Excellent point to consider.

But I would like to ask a different one also:

"Are your machines getting faster more quickly than poorly written programs can slow them down?"
