news.ycombinator.com Kiran Gopinathan 2025-09-17 01:17:05

The most exciting part of Programming Languages (PL) research for me has always been in Programming Language Design. By carefully crafting a language with a syntax and semantics tailored for a specific domain, PL designers can provide an interface for end users that seamlessly aligns with the sensibilities and intuitions of practitioners, allowing users to focus on the "interesting" parts of a problem and tackle larger and more complex problems.

Played by Dominique Thorne, Riri is a genius inventor, just like the late, great Iron Man, but without his billionaire resources. That conflict will be at the heart of the new show, which debuts on Disney+ June 24, and Tony Stark himself just endorsed it. Two fantastic Ironheart videos just came online, one of which focuses on the practical suits built for the production. E

A New ‘Star Trek’ Comic Will Bring Captain Kirk Back to Life

Somehow, Captain Kirk returned. Wrong sci-fi franchise for that meme, but it’s true. IDW Publishing has just announced Star Trek: The Last Starship as a new addition to its line of Trek comics, and it’ll focus on a certain Starfleet hero who’s been dead since the big-screen events of 1994’s Star Trek: Generations. How is this possible? Well, beyond the long-held notion that anything is possible in sci-fi, a notion that also applies to comic books, the Hollywood Reporter—which was the first to a

Foundation season three will pick up 152 years after the end of season two, which means a new set of supporting characters is on the way. However, given Foundation’s fondness for clones (be they organic or digital) and robots—as well as people who endure extended cryosleep—all the main faces will also be back. That time jump will advance the action to a time of great unrest, as predicted in season two by Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell) using a combination of mathematics, the “prime radiant” quantum
