  • @suttonkoeser said: I'm still thinking about what CCS means or could mean for my practical work as a programmer - it feels orthogonal to the conversations with team members and the goals of well-written, working, maintainable software that we're…
  • @patricia_s said: Here's a screenshot of the list of protected domains It's an interesting list of sites, including many popular messageboards. Just noticed that Echo and (several different domains for) the Thing both made the cut, but th…
  • According to this paper, An Approach Toward Answering English Questions From Text by Simmons, Burger, and Long (p.361), Protosynthex II was also written in LISP, although it doesn't give a version. I see from the first pdf you posted, @Lesia.Tkacz, …
  • @jang said: On cleverness versus "cleverness", the baroque and the downright rococo: topically, there has recently been (another) call to "write boring Haskell" (a quick search here will provide arguments both for and against) - as a reaction aga…
  • @jeremydouglass said: Have you considered submitting a few examples such as this to Rosetta Code, e.g. their 99 Bottles of Beer task? They already host examples from a number of esoteric languages. While this JavaScript dialect is implemented as …
  • @jeremydouglass said: On the project homepage I was particularly interested in the playful point that the language will "Question forty-five years of advice against expressiveness in the text of code" and the link to Dijkstra's "The Humble Progra…
  • @Ignotus_Mago said: FloodNet was developed in 1998 by the Electronic Disturbance Theater (EDT), a group of artists and activists working in the area of Electronic Civil Disobedience (ECD). FloodNet enabled activists to hold "virtual sit-ins." ...…
  • @jeremydouglass said: @Temkin thanks for sharing this! Which Java decompiler did you use? I used CFR 0.148
  • @jeremydouglass said: I think it is interesting how the anthropomorphized transactions (the kitties) are articulated in terms of generational reproduction and sexual dimorphism Cryptokitties seems to be of two minds about sexual dimorphis…
  • Thanks Paul and Shawné; this is a fascinating project. The context about dds attacks is fascinating, and the controversy around it as an approach for protest. @Ignotus_Mago said: Here we apparently have a list of servers/organizations that …
  • @jeremydouglass said: I wonder to what extent it would matter if basic control-flow operators of a language -- such as if, while, for, break et cetera -- were automatically localizable in all major programming languages and replaced during a pre-…
  • @jeremydouglass , it's an important point that there are different levels of validation of a language as you've described. Just to summarize: Is its alphabet valid in a string? Can it be used in a variable names? Does the IDE support it (here I'm a…
  • I'm very interested in the morphemic aspect. In nearly all programming languages, an identifier would appear as the same token each time; you wouldn't have a plural version, or a different tense for instance.Cree# carrying meaning within these varia…
  • @Lesia.Tkacz said: I'm not sure what on line 24 does, but I like how it reflects a programmer's or user's actual language in use; after all, who hasn't periodically sworn at their machine? Yeah, my first thought is that there was a CLEAR…
  • Thanks for posting this, I hadn't read it in years but it's a great one, especially about language and gender. I have a lot of questions about his description of Sapir-Whorf; the examples he gives (the future tense and Schadenfreude ones) are so …
  • @ebuswell said: In fact, this extratextual activity is deliberately hidden, precisely in order to create the space in which the textuality of the code can come into being. There's something a little sad about the runtime environment getti…
  • I love that list of empty programs. Now I know which languages consider zero-byte files valid code
  • This reminds me of Pall Thayer's Microcode work Sleep. Modeled on Warhol's film, it's a program that does nothing for eight hours; but of course background processes are active throughout. Zero-byte code is kind of an obsession of mine. I made a …
  • Hi, I'll be co-hosting week 2, and am psyched to take part in this year's discussion! I make programming languages where code consists of empty folders, or where data decays over time, or where spelling everything wrong is okay. I believe we are …
