When did lisp die?
Staging Area for the Common Lisp FAQOnce a year since about 1975, if you listen to people on Usenet. Interest in lisp did drop considerably in the mid to late 1980s, when the "Big AI" bubble burst, and the end of the Cold War brought budget cuts to many of the AI and simulation projects sponsored by the DoD. It's not clear-cut, though. Some of the very best books on lisp programming were written as or shortly after mainstream interest in Lisp started to wane (see or list above).

FAQYes, because she thought that the sufferings of the soldiers in the Crimean War had led to improvements in Britain that she had helped to bring about. Yes, almost certainly. A young man spent nine years before the war proposing marriage to her but she rejected him to do God’s work instead. No, probably not a practising one. She seems to have had passionate friendships with women in her adolescence and again late in life. But for most of her life she was happier in the company of men.

FAQNo, she died of extreme old age at 90. There is no possibility at all that she had syphilis. Her life is extremely well-documented and the symptoms of syphilis are not compatible with what we know about her. But this rumour about syphilis is quite common. I have been told that it was publicised by a priest who was opposing a church proposal to commemmorate her. He said she was an atheist who died of syphilis, and this was widely published in the press and resulted in the proposal being dropped.

Frequently Asked Questions for comp.lang.lispScheme is a member of the greater family of Lisp languages, assuming that is considered to include others like Dylan and Emacs Lisp.

Project Mu : FAQMmmm, tragedy. Dina always had to die, and due to Krystyn's MASTERFUL writing, her death was urgently more necessary because of the strong emotional connection you guys developed with her. Life isn't always a bed of roses. There is a character in the Sondheim musical, Into the Woods, named The Baker's Wife. I liken Dina's purpose in Project Mu to be similar to The Baker's Wife - on her way to have a child with the Baker, she needs to lift a curse the witch next door has placed upon them.
