The C++ Standard moves at a fast pace. Probably, not all developers caught up with C++11/14 yet and recently we got C++17. Now it’ time to prepare C++20! A few weeks ago The C++ Committee had an official ISO meeting in Jacksonville, FL (12-17 March 2018) where they worked hard on the new specification.
The dark side of ergonomics
Python and JavaScript are two of the most popular programming languages . If you're a Python programmer learning JavaScript, or a JavaScript programmer learning Python, this handy cheat sheet might help you.
concurrent.futures is well suited to Embarrassingly Parallel tasks. You could write concurrent code with a simple for loop.
I had heard of it years ago, but never really gave it a lot of thought (or time) to it, despite being a huge fan of Common Lisp and a bit of a language polyglot. I think part of my initial reluctance may have been 'java' - as I would typically associate just the negatives to it (cumbersome language syntax, slow start…
Hello, friends! Long time no blog!I'm still here hacking away on JRuby for the benefit of Rubyists everywhere, usually slogging through compatibility fixes and new Ruby features. However with the release of JRuby 9.2, we've caught up to Ruby 2.5 (the current release) and I'm spending a little time on performance.I…
The Standard does not require that implementations define intptr_t nor uintptr_t. It also does not require that implementations define integer-to-pointer conversions in any meaningful fashion unless they define those types. Conforming implementations are certainly allowed to document some integer-to-pointer…
I’ve been looking for a decent TSDB for years now. Took a shot at writing one in Lush using HDF5 (as others have done), but the experiments I did raised more questions than I got answers. I&#…

In a bid to expand my programming brain by learning something about “dependent types”, I recently bought the Idris book. (Idris is a pure functional programming language that is mostly …
Hi, I'm Ariel (she/her), a newly-minted member of the Swift team at Apple ! Previously, I helped lead the Luau team at Roblox where my efforts primarily focused on the design and implementation of Luau 's type system. I also led the creation of Lute to support using Luau both to build developer tooling, and as a…
Inspirations & experiments, mainly about denotative/functional programming in Haskell
One of the long-standing issues that we’ve been wrestling with in Rust is how to integrate the concept of an “uninhabited type” – that is, a type which has no values at all. Uninhabited types are useful to represent the “result” of some computation you know will never execute – for example, if you have to define an…
You are seeing this because the administrator of this website has set up Anubis to protect the server against the scourge of AI companies aggressively scraping websites . This can and does cause downtime for the websites, which makes their resources inaccessible for everyone.
Spring framework is arguably one of the most popular application development frameworks used by java developers. It currently consists of a large number of modules providing a range of services. These include a component container, aspect oriented programming support for building cross cutting concerns, security…
This is an additional post in the “Go is not good” series. Go does have some nice features, hence the “The Good” part in this post, but overall I find it cumbersome and painful to use when we go beyond API or network servers (which is what it was designed ...
One of the main use cases for the Zig Programming Language is operating system development and embedded development. So, what better way to make sure the language is suitable than to work on a project in this field?
Hypergiant is a library for CHICKEN Scheme that tries to make it easy to make efficient games. 1 The idea behind it is the belief that games should start with a prototype that should take minimal effort, but these should be extensible to be whatever you want the final product to be. So Hypergiant attempts to find the…
I wanted to write a thoughtful article in response to Dominik Wagner’s “On my misalignment with Apple’s love affair with Swift” . During my research I realized, that Chris Lattner had already done this. Sort of. 17 months before Dominik published his piece.
There has been some debate on Hacker News lately about what makes Lisp cool , in particular about whether the secret sauce is homo-iconici...
