The FullScreenMario project burned brightly for a few short weeks in October 2013 after Boing Boing lauded it as “a pretty impressive example of what HTML5, in-browser functionality can do.” A few days later, it went viral on Reddit and by November, attention turned to scrutiny, and Nintendo took the project down with a DMCA request. Josh Goldberg speaks of his former project with a bit of pride—i
I did it. On Wednesday, I will hand in my badge and gun, so to speak, and dedicate the rest of 2025 to shipping my programming language, jank. It's been a long time coming, and actually a gradual transition, but how did we get here? The start of jankTen years ago, to the month, I started tinkering with programming language design and compiler development. At that point, I was deep into C++ and my
You have to decide if you want to stick with the latest LTS version, or if you go with the latest feature release and upgrade every six months. Both options are okay, but if you’re uncertain, stick with the latest LTS version. The OpenJDK project itself is managed on openjdk.java.net where you can find specifications, source code, and mailing lists, but there are no builds that you can download. Y
Most of my readers are probably familiar with procedural programming, object-oriented programming (OOP), and functional programming (FP). The majority of top programming languages on all of the language popularity charts (like TIOBE) support all three to some extent. Even if a programmer avoided one or more of those three paradigms like the plague, they’re likely at least aware of them and what th
Show navigation A recent article on WebAssembly Garbage Collection (WasmGC) explains at a high level how the Garbage Collection (GC) proposal aims to better support GC languages in Wasm, which is very important given their popularity. In this article, we will get into the technical details of how GC languages such as Java, Kotlin, Dart, Python, and C# can be ported to Wasm. There are in fact two m
Patterns for Building LLM-based Systems & Products [ llm engineering production 🔥 ] · 66 min read Discussions on HackerNews, Twitter, and LinkedIn “There is a large class of problems that are easy to imagine and build demos for, but extremely hard to make products out of. For example, self-driving: It’s easy to demo a car self-driving around a block, but making it into a product takes a decade.”
In 2013, I had an idea: "what if I were to build my programming language?". Back then my idea came down to "an interpreted language that mixes elements from Ruby and Smalltalk", and not much more. Between 2013 and 2015 I spent time on and off trying different languages (C, C++, D and various others I can't remember) to see which one I would use to build my language in. While this didn't help me fi
The many, many, many JavaScript runtimes of the last decade
This last decade has seen an inundation of new JavaScript runtimes (and engines in equal measure), enabling us to run JavaScript in all manner of contexts with precise fitness for task. Through these, we've seen the language spread to the Cloud, the edge, Smart TVs, mobile devices, and even microcontrollers. In this article, we'll explore what's driving this diversity, and why no one runtime or en
The State of WebAssembly 2023 survey has closed, the results are in … and they are fascinating! If you want the TL;DR; here are the highlights: Rust and JavaScript usage is continuing to increase, but some more notable changes are happening a little further down - with both Swift and Zig seeing a significant increase in adoption. When it comes to which languages developers ‘desire’, with Zig, Kotl
The Go Programming Language and Environment – Communications of the ACM
Go is a programming language created at Google in late 2007 and released as open source in November 2009. Since then, it has operated as a public project, with contributions from thousands of individuals and dozens of companies. Go has become a popular language for building cloud infrastructure: Docker, a Linux container manager, and Kubernetes, a container deployment system, are core cloud techno
Statically typed programming languages can help catch mismatches between the kinds of values a program is intended to manipulate, and the values it actually manipulates. While there have been many bytes spent on discussions of whether this is worth the effort, some programming language designers believe that the type checking in current languages does not go far enough. Koka, an experimental funct
Preface ¶ I started this paper in 2013, and in 2015 sent it out for review to the people listed later on. After incorporating comments, I sent it to Rik Farrow, the editor of the USENIX magazine ;login: to see if he would publish it. He declined to do so, for reasonably good reasons. The paper languished, forgotten, until early 2018 when I came across it and decided to polish it off, put it up on

Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) provide an intuitive visual frontend for interacting with computers.

The state of HTTP clients, or why you should use httpx · honeyryder
The state of HTTP clients, or why you should use httpx 15 Oct 2023 TL;DR most http clients you’ve been using since the ruby heyday are either broken, unmaintained, or stale, and you should be using httpx nowadays. Every year, a few articles come out with a title similar to “the best ruby http clients of the year of our lord 20xx”. Most of the community dismisses them as clickbait, either because o

If this target is provided by LLVM, LLVM may have the target as an experimental target, which means that you need to use Zig-provided binaries for the target to be available, or build LLVM from source with special configure flags. zig targets will display the target if it is available.

Local-first software: You own your data, in spite of the cloud
Cloud apps like Google Docs and Trello are popular because they enable real-time collaboration with colleagues, and they make it easy for us to access our work from all of our devices. However, by centralizing data storage on servers, cloud apps also take away ownership and agency from users. If a service shuts down, the software stops functioning, and data created with that software is lost. In t
This article is a translation, the original version is available here. I started using the OCaml language regularly around 2012, and since then, my interest and enthusiasm for this language have only grown. It has become my preferred choice for almost all my personal projects, and it has also influenced my professional choices. Since 2014, I have been actively participating in public conferences d
You can't fool me, young man. It's C all the way down! Believe it or not, not everything is based on C. There are current, shipping, commercial OSes written before C was invented, and now others in both newer and older languages that don't involve C at any level or layer. Computer hardware is technology yet very few people can design their own processor, or build a graphics card. But software is a
Useful Front-End Boilerplates And Starter Kits — Smashing Magazine
We don’t need to write everything from scratch every single time. With boilerplates and starter kits, we can set up our projects faster, and get to work immediately. We’ve also just recently covered CSS auditing tools, CSS generators, accessible front-end components and VS code extensions — you might find them useful, too. Today, we’re shining the spotlight on boilerplates and starter kits for all
Introduction: Density Is King (With a Tiny VM) I've previously come to the conclusion that there's little reason for using bytecode in the modern world, except in order to get more compact code, for which it can be very effective. So, what kind of a bytecode engine will give you more compact code? Suppose I want a bytecode interpreter for a very small programming environment, specifically to minim

The simplicity of Prolog
Back to homepage Nowadays the most popular programming languages are Python, Javascript, Java, C++, C#, Kotlin and Ruby, and the average programmer is probably familiar with one or more of these languages. It's relatively easy to switch from one to another (barring any framework specific knowledge that may be needed), since they are all imperative (and for the most part object-oriented) languages,
Why Algebraic Effects?
Why Algebraic Effects Algebraic effects1 (a.k.a. effect handlers) are a very useful up-and-coming feature that I personally think will see a huge surge in popularity in the programming languages of tomorrow.
