Code Is Data

"encode"

** Use "encodings" instead of OOP/polymorphism

Quote may seem a bit of a foreign concept, because few other languages have anything like it. It's closely tied to one of the most distinctive features of Lisp: code and data are made out of the same data structures and the quote operator is the way we distinguish between them.

Address busses works well and are at the heart of both processor and memory design on a variety of scales. Address busses make computers a logical machine for when they are properly clocked we can reason knowing all elements have been considered. But this pattern is rare or nonexistent in nature. Let's understand why.
