HN comment orderI think its hilarious that this project is basically a 5k-line .ino file + immeasurable awesomeness: https://github.com/technoblogy/ulisp/blob/master/ulisp.ino This is something that is accessible to read and modify in a weekend. Really cool.
This looks really neat! There was a story about Lisp at JPL that got me dreaming about embedded REPLs: > The Remote Agent software, running on a custom port of Harlequin Common Lisp, flew aboard Deep Space 1 (DS1), the first mission of NASA's New Millennium program. Remote Agent controlled DS1 for two days in May of 1999. During that time we were able to debug and fix a race condition that had not shown up during ground testing. (Debugging…
How powerful is the cheapest microcontroller from the list of supported in comparison to John Maccarty's computer when he first time run the eval function? Did he desire this CPU performance in comparison to his IBM 704 at least for some aspects? He had 18KB of RAM and a multi-MB disk so probably he would enjoy a few orders of magnitude less ping for anything.
