What this might point to is room for a new high-level
language that maps better to the reality of current
hardware.
Isn't that exactly what the author said in his last two paragraphs, including a hand-wavy sketch of what he thinks that high-level language might look like?
- vvanders 10y agoSince the site is down and I can't read the article I can only guess here. For me it's something with value types & memory coeherancy sematics. That's what you need to get the most out of your hardware. Good candidates for that today are Rust, C, C++ and maybe C#(don't have enough experience with their value types to make a judgement yet).
