When I started Nim's development I had a small simple language in mind that compiles to C; its implementation should not be more than 20,000 lines of code. The core guideline has always been that Nim should be a small language with a macro system, which should be capable of extending Nim with all the features that the…
Swift 5 switches the preferred encoding of strings from UTF-16 to UTF-8 while preserving efficient Objective-C-interoperability. Because the String type abstracts away these low-level concerns, no source-code changes from developers should be necessary*, but it’s worth highlighting some of the benefits this move gives…
Julia is a high-level programming language for mathematical computing that is as easy to use as Python, but as fast as C. The language has been created with performance in mind…

It started as a program to add reader usernames, but quickly became the language powering The Times’s website.
We're pleased to announce TypeScript 3.7 Beta, a feature-complete version of TypeScript 3.7. Between now and the final release, we'll be fixing bugs and
The Swift 5 release enables runtime checking of “Exclusive Access to Memory” by default in Release builds, further enhancing Swift’s capabilities as a safe language. In Swift 4, these runtime checks were only enabled in Debug builds. In this post, I’ll first explain what this change means for Swift developers before…
If you already know lots about JIT in general and Ruby’s MJIT in particular… you may not learn much new in this post. But in case you wonder “what is JIT?” or “what is MJIT?” or “what’s different about Ruby’s JIT?” or perhaps “why in the world did they decide to do THAT?”… Well then, perhaps I can
In this step-by-step tutorial, you'll get a clearer understanding of Python's object model and learn why pointers don't really exist in Python. You'll also cover ways to simulate pointers in Python without the memory-management nightmare.

How Mozilla’s new language dramatically improved our server-side performance
Today on the 7th of December, we’re going back to the future and do some Smalltalk with the GraalVM.
Introduction
Diagnostics play a very important role in a programming language experience. It’s vital for developer productivity that the compiler can produce proper guidance in any situation, especially incomplete or invalid code.
For MS-Windows, download the self installing executable . Signed MS-Windows files are available on the vim-win32-installer site ( gvim_8.2.0012_x86_signed.exe is recommended) For Unix you probably want to get the latest version using git, see the github page Otherwise see the Download page for options.
Harness the Scala and JavaScript ecosystems to develop robust apps for browsers, serverless, and Node.js.
CPython has supported multiple interpreters in the same process (AKA “subinterpreters”) since version 1.5 (1997). The feature has been available via the C-API. [c-api] Multiple interpreters operate in relative isolation from one another, which facilit...

In all the above scenarios you might want to use other Clojure and Java libraries (dependencies or 'deps'). These may be libraries you are writing locally, projects in git (e.g. on GitHub) or, commonly, libraries available in the Maven ecosystem and hosted by central repositories like Maven Central or Clojars.
