It cannot be a better C. You cannot implement exceptions in it using set jump for example, but the biggest problem is memory management. You can't implement your own arena allocato…

Chief design goals were radically easy concurrency and speed of compilation.

I suspect this "not a systems language" alludes only to OCaml's rather steeper learning curve and until-recently difficulty with multiple threads. I am sure it could roll just fine…

I am reading about ipv6 nat. I guess it's possible but discouraged? This contention point confuses me. I consistently get downvoted for this opinion, and I've seen contrarian voice…

Article does not address the elephant: there is no ability to NAT with IPv6. Sure, absolutely, you shouldn't have to NAT, but in my datacenter, NAT is a feature, not a bug. The art…

I have recently blogged that AI and Common Lisp don't mix, but I've come to the opposite conclusion lately. AI evens the playing field between large teams and single developers. No…

Such humans are likely not programmers, which generally fits my use case. If I wish for my blind sister to contact me, I just give her my number.
