I feel for a smallish project I'd rather prefer to have more readable, dense code like Ruby's over the ceremony of static types.
Sounds cool, as someone interested in concatenative languages and also a user of C#, might I ask if you have a link?
Factor is super cool! And the amount of packages ("vocabularies") it comes bundled with is just astonishing.
I assume that in most array languages, you also create "words" or however you want to call functions, to reuse code. I wonder about a purely aesthetic issue: how does it look to interleave those symbols with…
It is a very interesting write-up. A random thought I had while reading this: I feel like long-term, a system that schedules/"optimizes" the process of learning by reading/watching content and then engaging with this…
Did you learn that handwriting pose already as a child? If not, how hard was it to teach yourself writing that way?
Hi, as someone also fiddling around with a concatenative toy language, I wanted to ask if any of your languages have a public repository somewhere? You seem very knowledgeable on the topic and your descriptions made me…
See my answer on the sibling comment.
https://sweepy.com/ There is also one that is called "tody" that we didn't try out. Both require a small subscription fee though, which I really dislike. I wish I had found a nice open source alternative. Besides the…
I like it! For me, I can confirm that the smaller the task, the less likely it is for me to procrastinate on it. I also didn't know that receipt printers don't need ink, that's cool. On a similar note: me and my partner…
Are there any other VM's like the BEAM? I never heard of any (admittedly I know little of this subject), and I wondered, is it because there is no need for another one because the BEAM is just so good, or is it because…
That sounds very intriguing, do you mind sharing the smart pen model?
Thank you. I once read a bit about Span<T>, but some of this reference stuff is very new to me. Interesting, definitely. C# really is a big language nowadays...
I sometimes write C# in my day job. But I think I don't know much about how to write really fast C#. Do you have any recommendations for learning resources on that topic?
Anecdotal: I recently found a little trick that works for me to overcome the horrors of the blank page: I turn my phone (having opened my preferred note-taking solution) into horizontal mode. The keyboard gets larger in…
Me too. If anyone likes that font but doesn't want to spend so much money, I found SF Mono and CommitMono to be kind of similar looking.
Nice. I also have an implementation in Rust (no public repository, private note-taking app). One low-hanging fruit (IMO) to improve on the base SM-2 is to more smartly pick the initial ease. I just took the average ease…
Working on a concatenative language in my free time, lots of fun: https://codeberg.org/tzell/TSL
I love this font.
Thank you for clarifying! I guess math is uniquely suited for this kind of strategy, but would you say it translates to learning concepts in other domains too? I was thinking about whether something like "what is X?" ->…
Say you have concepts/items/cards A, B and C, with A -> B -> C (C encompasses B, B encompasses A, keeping the notation from the article). As I understand it, the article advocates for showing C first, then you can…
Thanks for sharing.
I am quite curious about Swift as a "more ergonomic Rust". How would you say it fares for typical backend stuff?
Thanks.
Thanks. And yes, I forgot to mention, here in Germany it as apparently also more costly than regular laser surgery.
