To the surprise of literally no one, I'm working on implementing a programming language all my own Inspired by conversation at a recent Future of Coding event, I decided I’d write up a little something about the programming language I’ve been working on (for what feels like forever) before I’ve gotten it to a totally shareable state.

Why You Should Be Using XSLT 3.0 (2017)

A look at the upcoming XSLT 3.0 release, and why it matters beyond the XML community Eighteen years ago, the originators of XML specification faced a problem: how to use the new language to generate a book-publishing format. What emerged were two new languages, the first for describing the various functional parts of a publication in XML called the XML Stylesheet Language Formatting Objects (ultimately XSL-FO) and the XML Stylesheet language (XSLT) for transforming XML-formatted content into th

Do the simplest thing that could possibly work

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-26 12:05:09

When designing software systems, do the simplest thing that could possibly work. It’s surprising how far you can take this piece of advice. I genuinely think you can do this all the time. You can follow this approach for fixing bugs, for maintaining existing systems, and for architecting new ones. A lot of engineers design by trying to think of the “ideal” system: something well-factored, near-infinitely scalable, elegantly distributed, and so on.
