-*** Computation
-+ Lisp (programming language):
-  + Almost no syntax.
-  + Code and data intercangeable.
-  + Easily self modifying.
-  + (The big Lisp idea: https://dev.to/ericnormand/the-idea-of-lisp )
-
-+ Smalltalk (programming language / runtime):
-  + Everything is object.
-  + On the fly modifiable / reprogrammable.
-  + Anything can be suspended/resumed from persistent storage on the
-    fly.
-  + [[http://esug.org/data/ESUG2015/3%20wednesday/1100-1130%20SQL%20Queries%20on%20Smalltalk%20Objects/SQL%20Queries%20in%20Smalltalk%20(James%20Foster).pdf][GemStone/S]]: Awesome feature list!

-+ Hadoop (computation system):
-  + Many individual connected computers behave as one big
-    computer. System is horizontally linearly scalable.
-  + Programming abstraction and execution model that naturally divides
-    problems te be solved in parallel and result easily combined.
-  + Data is spread across nodes, automatic failover, built in
-    resiliency.
-  + Small pieces of code are automatically transferred to the node
-    that contains relatively big data that needs processing (network
-    efficiency).
