I was thinking "Who's going to convince their company to let them do this?" and found the answer: "Sat-Sun".

The schedule grows small. I have stopped writing new Elisp and will learn CL in order to adopt Lem.

A few years back, this schedule included smart voices attempting to exercise some cultural leadership. It was bright, well-meaning, and largely right. Being right does not stop RMS. It inspires him to travel in an alternative direction of his choosing for the rest of his life.

Could you expand on your comment a bit please? I've not heard of Lem before now. How does it compare to Emacs? Also your comment about cultural leadership. I'm not sure what you're referring to specifically. (Asking in good faith out of curiosity).
