Damn it. Every time I read a Stephen Wolfram entry I am so divided between if what I read is there for its own sake or is it just another shameful plug for his products. I wish he could simply write for once in a neutral way. He has good me

C + Lua == 21st Century "C Programming" There is no silver bullet for everything, obviously, but for me the above combination is a match made in heaven. Lua is small and adds only the necessary tools to take care of higher abstrat

Although there is little need for C to evolve (apart from certain security holes), I think there is space. Thankfully, there are still persons that care about its evolution. The K&R is a classic, but it shows its age, especially as we h

Since someone mentioned it, how slower is PUC Lua in respect to LuaJIT? Compromisingly slower? Are there metrics out there or is it a relatively subjective feeling?

It is insane you have Plethon Gemistos in your academic tree. :) Not to take anything away from you, but I am wondering if the information 3-4+ hundred years back is accurate. Seems to cool to be true!
