It needs good feedback. Agentic systems like Roo Code and Claude Code run compilers and tests until it works (just gotta make sure to tell it to leave the tests alone)
Old habits die hard? I used to administer old SunOS machines that didn’t have less (and would take considerable effort to install on all of the machines) so these days I just alias more to less
Unfortunately, the lisp machine didn’t gain traction because the start-up times were so long and I believe this is due to it doing lots of internal checks which was awesome but unfortunately things like the Sun SPARCstation won because it was crazy fast although buggy
