Another story about LISP: the fate of Lisp in Google

Previously mentioned remote debugging of Lisp on an aircraft in the "Deep Space task"CodeThe story, I found the source, http://www.flownet.com/gat/jpl-lisp.html JPL is to promote the power laboratory, if you remember correctly, it seems that Qian Xuesen was involved in the creation.

 

The author mentioned in his article that he had been away from JPL and went to Google to work. He wanted to promote the application of Lisp and find the VP in charge of technology. The conversation was as follows:

 

Me: I 'd like to talk to you about something... him: Let me guess-you want to use smalltalk. Me: Er, no... him: Lisp? Me: Right. Him: No way.

So lisp ended in Google. A year later, he returned to JPL.
