Ironic that this uses "PL notation" in its title - an ungoogleable acronym (luckily Hacker News has clarified this as meaning programming language notation).

- DonaldPShimoda 6y agoTo be fair, this is posted on the SIGPLAN blog. SIGPLAN is the ACM's Special Interest Group on Programming LANguages. (The ACM is the Association of Computing Machinery.) While the title doesn't work well when posted to places like HN, it's not nearly as ambiguous if you're a follower of the blog in general haha.
