Neurodivergent devs: what languages actually *click* for your brain? Not popularity — what feels kind, predictable, low-cognitive-load? Why?

I'm building a framework for ND devs and want real experiences. Rust? Go? Odin? Python? Something else?

Tell me what works (or doesn't) for you.

@dylanisaiah #CommonLisp

It's like you're walking through an abandoned mall and discover a custom rolls Royce parked with the keys in the ignition fully fueled. And you can just... Drive it.

It's got a lot of quirks but underneath it all is a solid foundation that has so many good ideas in

@catboi29 You've sold me on the imagery alone. What does Common Lisp actually *feel* like to use day-to-day? Is the quirkiness charming or frustrating?

@dylanisaiah difficult to enumerate. Some bits feel very old (like the "car" function named after a register on an old IBM mainframe from the 70s) and some of it is space age: getting into macros and writing programs that write programs.

It's a language that you will be learning new things about for years and years.

A good place to start is googling "practical common lisp" as a free introductory book.

It is, unfortunately, completely unemployable!
