    Looks like we are entering another #programming language boom era. Which would be great and all, but seeing #Claude used there extensively, I am left wondering whether the human author actually knows what is he doing. Under the hood and all I mean.

    But the pitch is actually solid. #Lisp aesthetics, #Rebol -like brackets instead of parentheses, simplified ownership - what's not to like there? Very alpha, but still something to keep an eye on.

  2. 🚀 Behold the #magic of "Red," a #language that claims to do everything from low-level wizardry to high-level sorcery, all crammed into a single 1MB file—because who needs more than that, right? 😏 Apparently, it's inspired by #REBOL, which everyone totally remembers and uses daily. 🤔🔮

  8. My 18yo nephew asked me what my favorite #ProgrammingLanguage is and I don’t actually know the answer.

    I *use* #C and #Go for applications. I write #Python for data munging and scripts and small apps. I’ve written many thousands of lines of each. I sponsor #Zig.

    But is one of them my *favorite*?

    I think my favorite would probably be something like #APL or #BQN or #Lisp or #Prolog or #PostScript or #Forth or #REXX or #Tcl or #Eiffel or #REBOL or #Oberon or #HyperTalk or #TutorialD or…
