Hey, are people not allowed to self select as smug Lisp weenies anymore? Even on HN?
What Lisp enthusiasts lost in terms of actual status in the programming world they make up for themselves in their niche corners and everyone is happy at the end.

With very few exceptions, people who are “elite” at anything don’t need to blog about their eliteness, their work speaks for itself. Imagine for example Fabrice Bellard (too many amazing accomplishments to list here) posting that he’s an elite developer. That’s right, he doesn’t need to, everyone knows it already.
