In terms of features, I imagine they are about the same. Here is why I think this. Maxima's function organization seems to follow and refers to the NIST Digital Library of Mathemat…

Very recent is david a roberts work to get this running on Pyodide, marimo and Observable. See https://mathics3.github.io/Mathics3-live/ and https://github.com/Mathics3/Mathics3-no…

Recently in https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-Pipe-Parallel-Job-Opt I read how GNU Make and 4.3 should speed up kernel builds by up to 10 times. Since I hav…

Actually, no, shortening names won't speed bytecode up in the way you seem to be suggesting. Variables "are" indexed by position in some arrays like co_varnames, co_names, co_const…

"Does anyone use this": I use it in the "deparse" command of my Pytohn 3 debugger trepan3k ( https://pypi.org/project/trepan3k/#exact-location-informatio... ) and the corresponding…

Yes and no. If you are sure that you start out with something generated by Python, then assuming the Python compiler is faithful, then of course you can always produces source code…

Instead of taking a quick look at the description of how it works, why not instead spend a little more time to understand more, before passing judgement? I have written http://rock…

Author here... The v8 debugger protocol rocks. The standard cli interface to it less so. For example, missing is simple frame-motion commands like "up", "down", with attendant eval…

Author here. Recently incorporated this into Python's traceback module: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/loctraceback and have used this idea in Perl (which from the help of perlmonks …

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not sure I understand the part about the text in 3 or 4 subtitles. You mean section headings on the wiki page, right? If that's what you meant that …

Author here: In the last 3 years or so I've been working on a decompiler, and it is like a compiler in complexity, engineering, and testing. But different. Since that URL is to a w…

> There are many exciting developments in compiler technology but they do seem to me to be fragmentary and not yet put together I think the same thing could have been said back in …

By the way... the person who wrote Turbo Pascal, Anders Hejlsberg, in fact went to Microsoft and was the principle architect behind Microsoft's J++, C#, probably the .NET runtime s…

I know. I am a long-time fan of your Perl work. And I know how to get them dynamically via an API which is done for example in https://metacpan.org/pod/Devel::Trepan::Deparse What …

Yes it does! It took a while however to find. I've now updated the remake wiki to include it. Direct link though is: https://github.com/rocky/remake/wiki/linuxBernsteinMakeDebug...…

Yeah, you win a few and lose a lot. I guess it all evens out. Judging by github ratings, the debugger for zsh (zshdb) is more popular than I would have expected. And that means I h…

Sigh. Showmedo seems to have shut down. I looked on my disk and I don't see a copy of the video. Or the notes I used to make the video. A shame because this was probably the more p…
