The always awesome Asianometry channel covered Lisp, early AI, and the Lisp Machines earlier this year:

The Noumenon does not exist. There is no essence divorced from perception. All knowledge is gained through this comparison of Thing to the map of symbolics and semiotics we're embedded in, you know?

OK, I agree with all of this, and I will say that while AI has been in a bubble before in a general sense, the modern AI bubble is driven by executives who are worse people and are doing some bad things with the technology, like turning a chatbot into a Nazi. Symbolics never made MechaHitler.

goofy horror is personally my favourite

(TW: mild cartoon gore and cult symbolics)

Kudos to "Blood Magic" Minecraft mod for inspiration

Have I gone slightly mad? Yes. Yes I have.

For what it's worth, this was an actual keyboard. I will forever regret not keeping one when we tossed the Symbolics boxes.

Re Symbolics, yes, also the first domain name registered, I believe? I never used a lispm but I lurk with a bunch of collectors and a hardcore Common Lisper was my functional programming mentor a while back. He pointed towards SICP, Scheme, Standard ML, and thus was created a monster.

the existential structures are unchanged so that even a reinvented symbolics has to return to the original ones in substance, if unknowingly. modern action into nature doesn't change anything there. it merely introduces new occasions to reflect those structures.

The lost cause of the Lisp machines
2025-11-18 , Stuttering, Stupidity, Stories I'm really bored of Lisp Machine Romantics at this point: they should go away. I hope they never do that. History Symbolics went bankrupt in early 1993. Various vestiges of the company in the way of these things have, in this case, endured for decades. But 1983 was the time when Lisp machines died out. Death was not unexpected: when I started using mainstream Lisps in 19891 Everyone knew that specialized hardware for Lisp was a useless idea. The common thought was that the advent of RISC machines had killed it, but in fact machines like the Sun 3/260 in its 'AI' configuration had2 Nails were already being hammered into his coffin.

All we need now is for an AI company to name itself Symbolics and the cycle will close, dooming all caught within to a harsh and cruel winter.

Just say no to AI in every shape or form.

AI Winter 3.0 can't come soon enough and the more companies that go the way of Symbolics and LMI, the better since NONE of these companies are anywhere near as good as they were.

like the answer on WI. really nice. incl the ref back to populism. also, nice approach on populism. that's about where i am too. i also focus heavily there on how those symbolics are threaded with w "democracy" ones.

Introducing Symbolics: the cutting-edge tool that reveals unconscious patterns driving consumer behavior! 🌟

It taps into emotional gut reactions, helping brands define strategy, build activation visions, and fill innovation pipelines.

I want to make my next haikaveh art into a standee.. I'm not sure how to and I'll probably have to censor the lgbtq+ symbolics there
But I'll try to anyway, I'm very proud of this work so far

Is big tech politicizing social media? It's "a question of our sovereignty," @taylorowen.bsky.social (@mediatechdemocracy.bsky.social) tells @spaikin.bsky.social at 8/11pm with @carmilevy.bsky.social , @mcewan.bsky.social (@iccit-utm.bsky.social ), and @erinkelly.bsky.social (Advanced Symbolics).

Is there any discussion as to what the discipline of history might have to offer right now, except for more warnings and cautionary tails, more (for sure, justified) outrage over Nazi symbolics, the shredding of civil rights, and so on?

Genuinely wondering what history has to offer right now.

Nice symbolics but the way more important issue, where I see very little reaction from the left, is that your king threatened former ally Denmark with war and violence

One lisp machine company, Symbolics, started as a spinoff of MIT's illustrious AI program.

The company boomed, AI winter happened *again*, and the company failed. In 2009 Napkins dot com bought their domain name for pennies on the dollar.

Tech has had so many Lehman Bros, tho. Remember Symbolics? Netscape? Pets.com? The sheer number of magic-technology Y2K bullshit companies alone is staggering.
