Niente sorprese o qualcosa di nuovo da riportare comunque.

Ho anche guardato il talk su Oz. Li’ ho imparato varie cose nuove ed interessanti, tipo questo concetto all’incrocio tra logica e programming di lasciare unbound variables nel codice che vengono “riempite” da altri threads. Molto interessante. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oz_(programming_language)#Dataflow_variables_and_declarative_concurrency

Riporto anche qualche commento divertente da parte di Richard Gabriel, che ricorda gli anni passati al lavoro con McCarthy:

McCarthy was the worst teacher - of Lisp or anything - you can imagine. We called his classes "Uncle John's Mystery Hour."

He was so bad a teacher that the quarter I was his TA for Lisp programming, I received the highest set of student reviews in the history of Stanford. And I was not very good at all....

I knew him for 35 years; I worked with him for five of those. I believe he considered me a friend. He was a terrible teacher and speaker, but no one I knew or ever met was smarter than he was. And I have met many brilliant people - more than make sense to have met
