Z Lem Loglan'82 is a programming language conceived for object and distributed programming. It has many features that make Loglan'82 a tool surpassing other programming languages: It enjoys a unique safe and efficient system of managing objects, see Safe dealocation, It offers modules of classes ( class ), moreover it allows to declare modules of cooperating objects i.e. coroutines and modules of threads ( process ). One can create not only objects of classes, but also objects of coroutines

After inventing calculus, actuarial tables, and the mechanical calculator and coining the phrase “best of all possible worlds,” Gottfried Leibniz still felt his life’s work was incomplete. Since boyhood, the 17th-century polymath had dreamed of creating what he called a characteristica universalis—a language that perfectly represented all scientific truths and would render making new discoveries as easy as writing grammatically correct sentences.

As many others observe as well, one of the major reasons to write is to firm up ideas in one’s own head. Serializing an idea out into English words is still no guarantee one understands it deeply, but it is great progress over a very fuzzy idea that has never been fleshed out at all. I’ve known for a long time I wanted to sit down and write this out. But I had no idea how many principles I’ve either drawn out from my times with functional languages, or had sharpened by them forcing me on to cer

photo_Pawel/Getty Images We ran a piece last year summarizing an IEEE study of programming-language popularity based on job listings. This article fostered conversation, including debates about whether the languages IEEE used in its survey were even languages. Most of us are familiar with polls and poll results, especially during campaign seasons. Unfortunately, polls have long been proven to be far from accurate. Some polls have a natural bias for one party or the other (not for nefarious rea

There’s been a lot of buzz about GUI stuff lately, which made me briefly reflect on the state of the art and share something I’ve been working on as of late. What's this? Read on, it's a bit of a story... It seems folks really feel the pain of their ever-expanding tech stacks, multiplied by an explosion of display form factors and related tech such as accessibility. People are coming up with new ways of the GUI (PanGui, Dear ImGui, etc.), which is very exciting and encouraging in itself. Are w

On the foolishness of "natural language programming" . Since the early days of automatic computing we have had people that have felt it as a shortcoming that programming required the care and accuracy that is characteristic for the use of any formal symbolism. They blamed the mechanical slave for its strict obedience with which it carried out its given instructions, even if a moment's thought would have revealed that those instructions contained an obvious mistake. "But a moment is a long time,

If someone had told me a few months ago I’d be playing with .NET again after a 15+ years hiatus I probably would have laughed at this. Early on in my career I played with .NET and Java, and even though .NET had done some things better than Java (as it had the opportunity to learn from some early Java mistakes), I quickly settled on Java as it was a truly portable environment. I guess everyone who reads my blog knows that in the past few years I’ve been playing on and off with OCaml and I think

Here’s ChatGPT’s summary of the responses (with its boldface emphasis preserved): “The coders have spoken—and they’re not packing up their keyboards just yet.

There is a common metaphor for hyperspace travel in science fiction, where some scientist type explains how the FTL works by taking a piece of paper, drawing a line on it to demonstrate “normal” travel, then folding the paper to bring the origin and destination together. Imperative code affords straight line approaches to problem. I have some code. It does 73 things.

How do we tell truths that might hurt? Edsger W.Dijkstra, 18 June 1975 from https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/ewd04xx/EWD498.PDF Sometimes we discover unpleasant truths. Whenever we do so, we are in difficulties: suppressing them is scientifically dishonest, so we must tell them, but telling them, however, will fire back on us. If the truths are sufficiently impalatable, our audience is psychically incapable of accepting them and we will be written off as totally unrealistic, hopelessly idea

Less popular or less commonly used ones. By that, I mean, not including the usual suspects, such as C, C++, Rust and Go (I know the controversy about the last one being a systems programming language or not). I'm asking this because I used C for both application programming and systems programming, early in my career, before I moved to using other languages such as Java and Python. And of late, I've been wanting to get back to doing some systems programming, but preferably in a more modern la

Obligatory LLM Section What can we take from these systems? Over the last decade, we’ve seen great advancements in distributed systems, but the way we program them has seen few fundamental improvements. While we can sometimes abstract away distribution (Spark, Redis, etc.), developers still struggle with challenges like concurrency, fault tolerance, and versioning. There are lots of people (and startups) working on this. But nearly all focus on tooling to help analyze distributed systems writt
