That is a great strategy. It gets easier over time though. My tipp is to still join smoking friends, but just don't smoke. Makes you robust against the temptation longer term.

Any language can be sandboxed on the VM level. It's a property of it's implementation. So you can say that Lua has no sandbox friendly implementation right now. For example, termination you can solve by unwinding the stack in effi

Feel free to drop Dr. Futamura an email: https://fi.ftmr.info/ If he says yes to changing his name you have my full support.

I work on Truffle for more than 10 years and I recently wrote a comment on hackernews using Futurama instead of Futamura. That comment had it wrong twice.

Truffle has no opinion on how you parse the sources. It cares about how you execute them from an intermediate Truffle guided representation produced by the parser. In other words antlr and truffle are a great fit. We even use this pairing f

Very few people have heard of them. That is exactly the reason why I mention them as often as I can. They are a great entry into the world of meta compilers.

The truffle compiler extensions in Graal will be part of Galahad. For example the partial evaluator. The truffle framework and all the languages are consumed from a maven repo as a regular java library these days. Some background on the rec

Pkl was built using the GraalVM Truffle framework. So it supports runtime compilation using Futamura Projections. We have been working with Apple on this for a while, and I am quite happy that we can finally read the sources! https:/&

Thanks for the link. I didn't know Peertube, yet. I can't see how you can avoid the centralization problem and also have decent monetization for the videos. But I want to certainly become convinced that it can work. Crypto made me

We do not do process isolation yet, although we have plans to implement that as well as a fallback strategy. The advantage of the native-image-isolate-based isolation is that it is much more lightweight. For example, calls from and to the h

I did some digging on past discussions, and yes, it seems the stars are not aligned for extension methods in standard Java. But tbh, there are some very good arguments against extension methods. Also, some tricky questions about overloading

Well a language fork. But not a full implementation fork of course. Or would you argue that what Lombok does is part of the java spec? It effectively extends the java spec in non backwards compatible ways.

Another java fork like Lombok. But this time the authors didn't take the time to support all java compilers/IDEs, so the situation is even worse. If this is just to highlight the merit of static extension methods with a follow up
