But I hope in thirty years, there's an AI native way we make software that is wholly uncorrelated with the current set of programming languages. They're not uncorrelated, but I think most programming languages today were designed to be efficiently au
Verse is a functional logic language, because we think that that's the way to make the most simple and powerful language simultaneously. Back in the nineteen seventies, the the programming language designer who built Pascal, one of the early programm
So I did a bit of historical research recently for some reason. I just wanna just understand the moment we're in, and because it's such a special moment, it's important to contextualize it. And I read this quote from Grace Hopper. So Grace Hopper inv
There there's a bright eyed 20 year old asking you what are the top languages to five languages to learn. If I were to pick five languages that I think people should learn or at least, how about let's restate it this way. I'm gonna say a couple langu
I think we built an amazing platform, but the business is not performing. And the reason the business is not performing is that code is the bottleneck. Right. Yes. All the other stuff is important to solve, but syntax is still an issue. Syntax is jus
I don't wanna take something away from people who enjoy it. So if you like TypeScript, all the most part of you. If you're using TypeScript because you think that's what a professional programmer is supposed to do, here's my permission. You don't hav
And so, you know, there's a long history to the field of programming languages, but in the nineteen fifties, the first programming language designers got together and the first standardized language called ALGOL. And, there was this meeting in 1956.
This reminds me of something you mentioned on a podcast recently, this idea that you think there's gonna or there should be a new programming language that is more designed for LLMs versus humans. Can you just talk about that? Because I think a lot o
It does have, like, if you have case statements, and it's pretty crazy what you can do with it. Functions. You can do all that. Yeah. It's You shouldn't. For stored procedures, that that's how you make your life hell. I will say that all the top lang
The key thing to know is that the memory of the computer can store two different things, the data that the program uses and the instructions of the program itself, the literal lines of code. And in this example we're about to paint, all of this is wi
...vibe coding is just developing a new language, which is super cool. Yes. Lord knows the world is built on programming languages. In the eighties, if you drove slowly past the computer science department trying to get a PhD, they would just invent a n
because LLMs are good at generating it, and it has some of the characteristics that makes it resilient, like garbage collected. Because everything's weird in this new world, and that just makes the most sense. What's the best ridiculous question? Wha
cycle Yes. With the models. Yeah. So any predictive power goes out the window. Correct. And anyone who says, like, something negative, you're gonna be the next person who says the Internet is gonna be a passing fad like a fax machine. And that's a ba
about Ruby is that here we are, 2025. Ruby has been worked on for over thirty years. And, essentially, the first draft is 90% of what we're still using. There was almost a sense of divine inspiration possible in wherever Matz was writing that initial
...future, how how much do you think a coding background matters? I think having problem solving, critical reasoning matters a ton still, because coding is just a a way to express formal logic. And that a lot of that is grounded in, like, problem solvin
...now most coding is done with the scripting languages, right, which that have you see my point. The scripting languages have abstracted away, like, five layers of detail underneath that that people used to do by hand, and they don't anymore.
the way that you would actually do computing, the way that you would do calculating, like, the way that an insurance company would calculate actuarial tables or the military would, like, calculate, you know, I don't know, whatever, troop logistics, y
