This is what I love about Ocaml enjoyers...we are super critical about the limitations of the language, and want to fix it and make dope libraries to make peoples DX stronk!
Wonderful guest with an equally wonderful project! OCaml is amazing. Kudos to the extremely Swedish kitchen background as well. LISP was never a functional programming language to begin with. The early LISPs were system langauges and heavily procedural in nature, where the idea of having macros was to hide what would otherwise be clunky abstractions if done in languages that were modern back then. The "magic" of LISP also came from the fact that they were garbage collected, dynamically typed languages with a level of expression that is unmatched even to this day. Keeping in mind that per-architecture-assembly language was something that people wrote for a living, along with FORTRAN, COBOL etc, the comparison to LISP was indeed seemingly magical. The notion of LISP being functional came later with the birth of Scheme and further interest in academia. Now we have Lisps like Clojure and Scheme, but they're still in a minority as most other LISPs are multiparadigm.

Leo is a wonderful guy, glad you had him on the podcast!
I think Go was using co-operative scheduling until v1.14

First Comment!
Great ep. Lance. Please have Anthony GG for next episode, he's also a fellow Gopher.
Yes
OCaml mention, let’s goooo

One day we corporate coders get to use a proper functional language! 🌈
