Why WTF! I'm looking for AI type work, which is much much rarer than sql work, which was my point. You wouldn't use lisp for that either (matlab/numpy followed by c optimizations is used there).
Why not just do relational programming - prolog or sql. The lisp weenies still don't get it.
And now you've peppered the entire thread with non sequiturs and off-the-wall droppings. Please take a break.
I'm simply trying to tell the kids on here that SQL is great and ROR/LISP/NoSQL worship around these parts is misguided. No 'droppings' in that.
Yes, I write Lisp on my resume to make me look like a stronger candidate. I learnt it a few years ago for fun, that's all (I'm not a lisp flip-flopper). Just want to put the advice out there to be a relational weenie (instead of lisp weenie).
If you have something to say about the actual post, then please say it. Otherwise, get out.
