Three years ago, I first looked at the then-very-new language Julia. Back then, I concluded that there were many interesting features, but also regretted too much bad Matlab influence in the array handling.
Julia vs. Python: A comprehensive comparison
The debate between Julia and Python sparks intense discussions. Julia, known for its compiled nature, boasts remarkable speed, while…
Comparison of plotting packages
I want to write a small 2d physical simulation to sharpen my Julia skills and learn how to use Julia to display more than “regular plots” I saw a post suggesting using either Makie, Plots or Javis I don’t want to start a fan war but would appreciate a comparison of the different use cases where each of the packages shines and where it can be challenging to use

Yesterday @supersonicai released an open weight jev-like model called julia-1This demo shows julia-1 running locally on my M5 Macbook Pro doing ~1500 tokens/sec calculating a live call's scam risk and risk types.Even for this moderately complex task, julia-1 was able to do… pic.twitter.com/VYHRvrjyIS— Thomas Yu (@thommyyu) September 27, 2026

why not matrix?
at this point it seems like most of the tech community is familiar with matrix, the "open network for decentralized communication". lots of projects and communities have migrated from a host of other platforms, including irc, discord and slack with the promise that their new spaces will be free forever. i first discovered matrix in 2021 and have dedicated a lot of time trying to understand exactly how it works, as well as trawling through github issues to try and understand whether we should consider matrix…

nyigoro/lumina-lang
Most languages make you choose: safety or the web. Lumina doesn't. Lumina is a statically typed, web-native language with HM type inference, algebraic types, and trait-based polymorphism, compiled to JavaScript and WebAssembly. Build reactive UIs, WebGPU workloads, and WASM modules in the same language, with the same type system.
A Very Early History of Algebraic Data Types
Been quiet around here! I’ve been putting almost all of my writing time into Logic for Programmers and my whole brain is book-shaped. Trust me, you do not want to read my 2000-word rant on Sphinx post-build LaTeX customization. But I spent the past week in a historical rabbit hole and had to share what I found. It started with Algebraic [Data] Types are not Scary, Actually. The post covers AlgDTs1 in more detail, but a quick overview is:
Issue 084: Spreadsheets
Welcome to the 84th issue of De Programmatica Ipsum, about Spreadsheets. In this edition, we declare spreadsheets the most popular software programming environment of all time; in the Library section, we learn how to use Lotus 1-2-3 for science reading "Spreadsheet Physics" by Charles Misner and Patrick Cooney; and in our Vidéothèque section, we discover that Excel is a Turing-complete, functional programming language through the eyes of Dr. Felienne Hermans.
Gleam a lovely little language - Markus Eliasson
When was the last time you programmed without using an if-statement? Ok, what about a for-loop? Recently I have been digging into the Gleam programming language. A small functional language that, as you probably guessed, neither has if-statements nor for-loops. And it has been a lovely experience.
Boomerang | Proceedings of the 35th annual ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages
Bidirectional programming languages are a practical approach to the view update problem. Programs in these languages, called lenses, define both a view and an update policy - i.e., every program can be read as a function mapping sources to views as well ...
