My Experience at JuliaCon
Introduction Link to heading I just got home from JuliaCon, the first conference dedicated entirely to Julia.

Lisp: More is less
There’s recently been a resurgence of interest in Lisp (specifically, Clojure) in my neighborhood.

Since the introduction of Swift, speed has been a key selling point. Indeed, it's right in the name of the language. It's said to be faster than dynamic languages like Python or JavaScript, potentially faster than Objective-C, and even claimed to be faster than C for certain cases. But how exactly does it do it?

Typographic Programming Language
Allow me to present a simple thought experiment. Suppose we didn’t need to store our code as ASCII text on disk. Could we change the way we write – and more importantly read – symbolic code? Let’s assume we have a magic code editor which can read, edit, and write anything we can imagine. Furthermore, assume we have a…
