Some time ago, I played around with decompiling Java class files in a more efficient manner than traditional solutions like Vineflower allow. Eventually, I wrote an article on my approach to decompiling control flow, which was a great performance boost for my prototype. At the time, I believed that this method can be…
This is the first in a series of articles analysing the performance improvements in the Go 1.1 release.
Blog about programming stuff.
Cliff Click gave a very good talk at Google last week. For your viewing enjoyment: The slides are available here . (For those who watched i...
I was honored to present a talk on Ruby concurrency at RubyConf 2024. It represents a high-level distillation of much of my writing and research over the past year. The conference itself was great, and presenting was such a fun experience. Here is the talk, titled “In-Depth Ruby Concurrency: Navigating the Ruby…
In part 2, we completed the user facing part of the compiler with semantic analysis. Now we're free to focus on the backend, generating LLVM. To do so, we'll use the llvm-hs-pure library, which embeds LLVM into a Haskell ADT, allowing us to manipulate it without having to set up any FFI.|A blog about various…
This is a technical review of Haskell and why software developers should care about functional programming. For a non-technical review of why your company should be using Haskell you might want to watch this introduction to Haskell video by FP Complete.
As we all (hopefully) know by now, Python 3 made a significant change to how strings work in the language. …
Building a native GUI for a cross-platform application is a decades old problem. Nowadays, most people just don't and fallback to using a non-native experience such as Electron instead.
A tiny, strict, impure, curried, dynamically typed (although that may change), partially applied language with rather peculiar syntax.
python patterns diagram Over the past few months a number of people have come to me for guidance regarding various aspects of Python development, so I ...
On August 15th, the following answer showed up on the Retrocomputing Stack Exchange site :
In a land bereft of a canonical "killer app" web framework or two, one must think about the what, why, how, where of all the moving parts. Out here, one must become a student of web framework architecture in addition to web application architecture. For here, in Clojure-land, the two are one. ☯
If there is one highly underrated concept in philosophy today, it is computation . Why is it so important? Because computationalism is t...
A response to Hillel Wayne’s “I am disappointed by dynamic typing”
The neuroscience of why we make million dollar decisions based on identity, not data.
A transcript of the talk I given in 2018 about the state of embedded programming in Rust.
One could say I have a bit of an obsession with build times. I believe having a “tight feedback loop” is extremely valuable: when I work on a large codebase, I want to be able to make small increme...
C has a reputation for being inflexible. But did you know you can change the argument order of C functions if you don't like them?
I’ve noticed changes in how I prefer to develop software since I’ve been focusing my career on Elixir. It allows me to think bigger thoughts and to develop with lower friction and less fear. I don’t want to go back.
