The purpose of the Smalltalk project is to provide computer support for the creative spirit in everyone. Our work flows from a vision that includes a creative individual and the best computing hardware available. We have chosen to concentrate on two principle areas of research: a language of description (programming…
I would like to preface this article by saying that Haskell is great. I have been using it as my go-to for native applications for several years now. Everything that follows is a product of my love and affection for the language, and a desire to see it succeed. And none of this is intended to disparage the efforts of…
One of my favorite languages is the Go language. I love its simplicity. It is popular and useful in a cloud setting. Many popular tools are written in Go, and for good reasons. I gave a talk on Go last year and I was asked for a criticism of Go. I do not mind that … Continue reading The Go compiler needs to be smarter
I have been using the Julia REPL as my day-to-day calculator on the command line for more than a year now. I am surprised that I haven’t seen more posts talking about how powerful and extensible the language is for simple numerical calculations and scripting In fact, the Julia REPL is much more than a simple…
This weeks hottest new JS runtime.
Relics Gilad Bracha recently posted an article "Bits of History, Words of Advice" that talks about the incredible influence of Smalltalk but bemoans the fact that: ...today Smalltalk is relegated to a small niche of true believers. Whenever two or more Smalltalkers gather over d
Exploring JVM specification and trying to write a little code to interpret a Java class like a real JVM.
In your build tools, you may have noticed that you have an ECMAScript 3 target, and 5 and up, but never a 4. Why is that?
I want to do $THING. Normally I do my hacking in Python, which is okay but has lots of frustrations. My friends tell me $LANGUAGE is better for doing $THING. After going through the online tutorial, I can see why. Maybe I’ll try $LANGUAGE for this project! Just a few things I need to figure out first: How do I install…
Explaining the different mental model Deno has about managing dependant code.
Simplex Sigillum Veri
For those who only read above the fold: I don’t say that all object-orientation is bad! OOP, especially classical polymorphic OOP, has a well-deserved place in real code. I’m going to talk about a very specific antipattern that I see with some frequency: the use of class for things that should be simple free functions.
If you follow me on facebook you know that I’ve been publishing daily CoronaVirus statistics. I generate these statistics using the daily updates in the Johns Hopkins github repository .
I've just released a new version of Idris 2 , which is a significant release in that it's the first one which is able to compile itself. Thus, it's the first one where we can really see how the performance of Idris 2 improves on the performance of Idris 1.
An overview of self-supervised pretext tasks in Natural Language Processing
A guide to Python's asyncio module covering async/await, event loops, tasks, and when to use asyncio vs threading or multiprocessing.
If you are living under a rock, quarantined against COVID-19, here’s quite a long, and somewhat technical, post for your consumption. This post will talk about how C and assembly dance together–the tango? waltz? who knows?
Context It’s not often I get excited about programming languages since meeting Ruby in 2015. Way before that, drowning in misery of writing university course works in Java, has pushed me away from development. Ruby’s freedom and expressiveness was what pulled me back, and its style has kept me in. I was on the lookout…
Five years ago, I wrote a post about the things I hated most about my then (and still) favorite scripting language: Ruby.
I have a particular view of Python performance from my experience on the Pyston project, and since this view is somewhat nonstandard I wanted to take some time to explain it and give a motivating e…
Python and R are slow when they can’t rely on functionality or libraries backed by C/C++. They are inefficient not only for certain algorithm development but also for common tasks such as FASTQ parsing. Using these languages limits the reach of biologists. Sometimes you may have a brilliant idea but can’t deliver a…
Well, the title says it all!

Project Loom aims to drastically reduce the effort of writing, maintaining, and observing high-throughput concurrent applications that make the best use of available hardware.
I have a shameful confession to make: I have long neglected an open-source library that I maintain, clj-tagsoup .
