Turning in the widening gyre, the falcon cannot hear the falconer. The center cannot hold.. The old prophecy is coming true.

Prompts are cheap. Show me the spark of consciousness that brings the whole thing to life, that which makes all of it worthwhile and meaningful.

Very cool, I enjoyed the explanation about how bitwise operations are built up to work on a set of gates all at once. I was browsing more of the codebase, it's really well-organized and commented code. I like how SHDL is readable for b

The project looks great! I browsed the codebase and enjoyed how much documentation there is about the user-facing and internal workings. I'm not familiar with the subject matter but I do love me a DSL, so the language design aspect was

React, Next, Laravel, Rails.. In fact, all higher-level programming languages from C on up are low-code solutions.

Trashism, that's a great term. I've been at a loss for words to describe the baffling mixture of brute fascism and juvenile idiocracy as the defining political culture of early 21st century U.S.

> extra step to get from CST to AST Could you elaborate on what this involves? I'm also looking at using tree-sitter as a parser for a new language, possibly to support multiple syntaxes. I'm thinking of converting its parse tr

Right.. So not only all data structures and operators, but all kinds of control flow can be described as functions. What an interesting way to look at programs, I'll study more in this direction. I wonder how languages support this que

That'a great example that demonstrates the idea in the article. And it concisely shows a functional insight in the language design of Clojure. I'm not a daily Lisp user yet, but as I learn more about it, I'm drawn to its many

Yes, we can look at an object as a function that accepts a key and returns a value (or null). Depends on language, it's called a set, map, or associative list. type AnObject = { [key: any]: any } type FunkyObject = (key: a

And a new era begins of endlessly fixing piles of machine-generated code that no one understands.

This brought me flashbacks of jQuery spaghetti monsters from years ago, some were Backbone related. In retrospect, over-engineered React code can be worse than decently organized jQuery code, but some jQuery mess was worse than any React co

Ah I see what you mean, the loop keeps it alive until login is detected, and after that the machine is kept alive by the SSH session itself. Appreciated.

That looks like a useful trick, using an ephemeral instance to SSH into a failed CI action context. I see in the script how it waits and checks for root user login, but to keep it alive, this part: > Then it loops while there's an a

Bravo, I respect that VS Code has added a single setting to disable all AI features. It prioritizes user choice and agency. Considering there was a recent rebranding as "the open source AI code editor", it means a lot to new and e

Let's do a "best of" ACM, to list everyone's favorite articles. First thing that comes to mind for me are the series of articles presented at HOPL conferences, History of Programming Languages. HOPL II (1993) https:&#x2
