> The goal is that most of your code can have the assurances of static typing, but you can still opt in to dynamically-typed glue code to handle repls, live code reloading, runtime code generation, malleable software etc.

Wasm-mvp is very simple, especially if you drop the floating point instructions. But WAMR supports a lot of extensions - https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime?tab=r... . There is a garbage collector, ji

One of the dynamics is that people get older so they move into different buckets. We can make the model way simpler to make it clearer. Say in 2020 we hired 1000 20-24yo, 1000 25-29yo etc and then we didn't hire anyone since then. That

I don't think Austral uses second-class references. Even the page you linked says: > But is it worth it? Again, the tradeoff is expressivity vs. simplicity... Austral’s linear types and borrowing is already so simple. Austral’s equi

This is an old prototype. I ended up making a language for it from scratch so that I could attach provenance metadata to values, making them directly editable even when far removed from their original source. https://www.scattere
