After all these years I am still wondering how people like complicated
sintaxes full of special forms more than the simplicity of lisp. After all,
the parentheses and the prefix notation do not look so terrible to me,
especially considering that you gain a lot in clarity and simplicity of the

yes, but the point here it is not at core and even having a float lib or

Right. Perhaps we should say "more explanations" instead of "documentatio
Hello guys,
I' m just a hobbyist here, but if you're ok, this is my 2 cents.
As it has already been written by many, Picolisp has already many
features that are IMHO killing features:
- simplicity
- the integrated web server + client library,
- the integrated NoSQL database + the integrated
Yeah, you mean some commercial or FOSS products with the opportunity for
PicoLisp programming/consulting/service business around it.
My company does that since 2015, and it's our main source of income
since 2018.
Currently its customized business applications (so similar to the
business model of A
I'm just saying that it would be nice to have a Picolisp app that has a
real demand and a little ecosystem around it ...
Like e.g. Moodle or some CMS system, that probably have an ecosystem of PHP
programmers around them, and many organisations using them (with need for
some support). For them it'

I thought interfacing with important data science libraries would be a pro,
but of course it has to be done first, it's quite a lot of work and not
always that easy, even if it's C, not to mention C++.
I guess you are right about the popularity of Lisp ...

I also believe that the simplicity of PicoLisp by itself is a "killer app".
I've explored several languages in the past but PicoLisp is the only one
that allowed me to understand the implementation of the language all the
way (I still have to work on the external symbol bit :) . I was so used to

Hi,
That's surely because it isn't made in Picolisp! :D
Kind regards,

The problem is that such an app would probably not be accepted by those millions
of (data) scientists. As always, Lisp

with the clear goals
- for all those millions of (data) scientists that work with R etc, it
should be the easiest (because fully integrated) way to build applications
on top of their data
- for those who like Picolisp it shoul
Yes. CLOSOS assumes Common Lisp.
ATM I am studying Intel N4100 on which to experiment with them.

Yeah I had kinda similiar ideas, Thorsten.
PicolispDB is certainly a killer feature - multi-paradigm database
(Key-Value, Object, Document, Graph, Relational.. really everything
covered), ACID (transactions), many indexing capabilities (including
text and spatial indexing), performant, extremely f
hallo list,
I always thought a "killer app" would be nice, to make those "killer
features" popular, and I always thought that could be a "data science
application builder" with 3 features:
- easy data import into a Picolisp DB
- ffi/java wrappers for many data science libs (Rmath, Weka, ...)
- ea
What are you talking about? Troll bait much.
Majority of IT practitioners have really bad knowledge about history of

Most things are in popular use solely because they are popular (which
may give legitimate non-technical benefits).

Hi Tom,
It appears that so long as the virtual machine abstraction is of any value
the PicoLisp ecosystem will continue to grow. PicoLisp basically is Cell
(cons pair) processing. One needs to approach PicoLisp bottom up from cell.
Surprisingly the cloud and its serverless abstraction are ultimat

People willing to use it will use it. People not aware of it or not wanting
