I think we need a #MinimalistProgram for everything. I've been wondering what the equivalent of #CKOgden's #BasicEnglish might be for #Racket or #Scheme. The #FossAndCrafts Scheme tutorial mentioned #LambdaTheUltimate and reminded me of #DougHoyte's #LetOverLambda book where he quote #GuySteele on primitives. I have Laozi in mind and want to think of #LambdaTheBase or #BasicLambda... With just lambda and an approach like #TheSchemersGuide learning could be in a very minimalist situation.
