+[[!template text="like it's dynamic, it's homoiconic, etc." start="00:01:37.934" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="But the interesting thing for implementors," start="00:01:40.462" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="is that, in theory," start="00:01:42.496" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="it can be implemented with very few primitives." start="00:01:43.576" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

+[[!template text="So the question is:" start="00:02:02.641" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="how many primitives do we have to implement" start="00:02:04.263" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

+[[!template text="Unfortunately, not really as few as we would like." start="00:02:13.308" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="In GNU Emacs, we have about 1500 primitives," start="00:02:20.234" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
+[[!template text="and the main reason for that is performance." start="00:02:25.400" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]

+[[!template text="But not only that, this is the main barrier" start="00:02:49.279" video="mainVideo" id=subtitle]]
