> In The Amazing Digital Circus (episode 8, "hjsakldfhl"), when Kinger opens the terminal to try to reset Caine, you can see that Caine (a creative AI built in 1996) is programmed in Lisp. The file is literally named Caine-core.lisp.

Nice touch. Explains how Caine returns in episode 9: Lisp continuations allow for graceful error recovery.

Much as I am a fan of Racket, this is not a friendly intro. It is a speedrun.

When an introduction says “friendly”, I don’t expect it to assume that I know what lambda is.

When an introduction says “friendly”, I don’t expect syntax rules to appear in it. At all.

any time the topic of racket comes up, i wonder if there are any interesting apps i could explore. but all i find is libraries and dev tools: https://awesome-racket.com/

I've never seen the appeal in schemes other than hot reloadability...

Will definitely try it.

Very cool! Always was interested in racket, I will try writing Black Jack in it!
