Will Crichton : I'm starting a new group at Brown w/ @ShriramKMurthi and @KathiFisler called the Cognitive Engineering Lab. We build tools to make you smarter, grounded in cognitive science and programming language theory. And we're hiring PhD students!

If you know browser-based UI programming inside and out (eg, you could reimplement React or Svelte), let's build the PL of your dreams to make reactive UIs fast & correct. Or let's build the next LaTeX / Markdown!

Just discovered the mostly-defunct blog esoteric.codes. Some beautiful projects on display here.

Logic is utterly alien to human thought and computers are here to remind us of that

He was on a great esolang panel at SXSW a bunch of years back. One of the panelists showed a language that was implemented in terms of setting attributes on directory/folders in a Windows filesystem.

Mostly lurking and reading everyone else’s links, but I at last have somethign to share myself! Here’s my LambdaConf 2024 talk, which I think folks in here will appreciate! In this talk: Peter Naur’s “Programming as Theory-Building”, Donella Meadows’ Thinking in Systems , and James C. Scott’s Seeing Like a State .

Hello Chris, it's a really great talk! Thanks for sharing. Is there any chance to see slides?

Chris Krycho 2024-07-11 20:46:41

Thanks! Yes, slides and script (not a transcript, but what I was going from) are both here.

I need to add the YT link and a better splash image to that now that the talk is online!
