Can’t load this website, what is it?

Thanks for your help my good man.

This is so nice… Thanks.

I know about all this — I actually began implementing my own JVM language a few days ago. I know Android uses Dalvik btw. But I guess a lot of people can use this info; infodump is always good. I do that.

btw I actually have messed around with libgcc-jit and I think at least on x86, it makes zero difference. I once did a test:

– Find /e/ with MAWK -> 0.9s – Find /e/ with JAWK -> 50s.

No shit! It’s seriously slow.

Now compare this with go-awk: 19s.

Go has reference counting and heap etc, basically a ‘compiled VM’. I think if you want fast code, ditch runtime.

I think that happens when app developers learn2optimize. Stop using interpreted bytecode languages on small processors!

Cool, will do.

Thanks. I actually have a parse-related question which I will post somewhere soon (as in 2-3 minute).

I will download it all and mirror it on my server and Github pages. Hate to see it go. What happened to this dude? Was he old or young?

That’s what they are doing with Fandom (formerly Wikia). Right?

Uh apologies. I did not realize that.

I don’t understand. Am I doing something against the rules of this instance? I have posted stuff like this before?

You showed up! So, about this, you see how ‘let’ binding does not allow you to add parameters right? (the val binding does) I think this is a good place to use tacitness. I will basically add Perl-like, POSX-shell-like features. To further add concatativenss, I shall add OCaml-style shell (|>). I will take a page from F#'s book and add a ‘<|’ too. I was originally planning to have these two operators be defined orthogonal-like via the operator binders (infix, infixr etc) but I think it’s necessary to bake them in.

So any other cool stuff? I plan on having intrinsics like ‘add’ and ‘or’ etc. Since it is translated down to C, I will add a two-way FFI, similar to the language I am writing it in, Cyclone Scheme.

THANKS.

Alright sorry. I’m just trolling people. If you go to my profile I have a lot of Rust projects. @hascat @FizzyOrange

Cool, as I just said, Rust is more of a ‘fandom’ than a ‘compiler’ really, it’s also not much of a ‘language’. I use C because it’s standardized by ISO, not some basement-dwelling incels who keep RFCi’ing their ideas instead of implementing it their own.

Cool. I can’t see the implementation though? Thanks a lot man. Really means a lot. @Corbin knows a lot more though. (since I called Rust a ‘shitlang’ I realize you may be ironic — Since Rust is more of a ‘fandom’ than a ‘compiler’, but I’m not going to offend you by assuming so. If you are truly giving me props, it’s really appreciated! :D )

No problem my good man. Have fun.

Why ‘exactly’ is it bad that people are still using C, a language with 4 decades of toolchain and library build-up, instead of a shitlang like Rust that is mainly used to create garbage webapps?

(Sorry if this is a double post) I think what you call ‘decoration’ I call 'augmentation;. After many iterations ,I came up with this AST: https://pastebin.com/NA1DhZF2

I like it, but I am still skeptical as of comitting to it. I really want to use Functors… But i’m nto sure how. These are new concepts to me!

The advice offered by Steele in this video no longer applies. It’s still a bit more up-to-date than Kernighan’s talk of a similar title. The fun of this video is in how he twists the English language. He’s truly an erudite man.

The reason this advice no longer applies is, that I, as a person trying to enter the world of langdev, at least personally, see no reason on defining a new language. I think we should find new ways to describe languages we already have i.e. implement them.

I am currently making a C compiler in OCaml, besides some other languages. I just began work on the AST tags. I somehow decided to use SSA versioning here.

But descring a new compiler for C, it’s blaze. I only do it because C is easy, at least non-intrinsicaly. For example, there’s no automatic GC. There are no first-class functions, or function literals (aka ‘lambas’, although this term is massively ‘disused’ — function literals are one thing, lambda literals are one thing, lambda expressions are one thing, function expressions are another thing and so on and so forth – and I don’t have classical education, I just managed to understand that imperative languages abuse the term ‘lambda’ to a dangerous degree. They have named their literals after the concept which it derives from ,it’s like calling binary computers, not the concept, the literal thing, 'Neumann machines, right? Like, go to Best Buy and say ‘Give me this Neumnan machine to play games on’! Maybe that’s because I am too uneducated that I think that, anyways).

Besides that, there are:

1- Too many old languages that could use a new veneer, like a SML compiler that uses MLIR or LLVM. 2- There are too many interpreted languages that could use being jitted. Like Ruby. Not sure if there’s jitted Ruby, but I just discoevered how sweet it is and I like a faster version 3- We could dig a mass grave and bury every Python user alive, after torturing them (I’m kidding! lol)

So I’m not very educated, I brute-force. I rely on ChatGPT models to spit facts at me, or give me validation on my work because I kinda need a ‘college simulator’. Like, I figure, I don’t have nay peers so let’s make this bot my peer.

In the realm of DSLs, let’s look at a successful example of ‘re-description’: Fish.

Fish is truly a marvel. Ever since I switched to it, you can’t beleive how faster I work. I don’t know if there were interactive-friendly shells before Fish, but Fish is ‘Friendly’ you know?

I am implementing my own shell too.

I dunno man. I’m just rambling.

Thanks.
