So I managed to get this dreaded error: Message ID: ZFS-8000-8A. It happened when I tried moving a directory between file systems on different zpools. Not gonna tempt fate and try that again. In future I will copy from source to target and then delete the target.

Some notes with regard to DejaGnu:
The seven programming ur-languages
This is an article with a list of very different types of programming language all of which are worth learning: The seven programming ur-languages.
In addition to ALGOL languages (which every one needs to know), check out:
- Lisp: PLT Racket
- ML: Haskell
- Self: Self
- Prolog: Prolog
- Forth: gForth1
- APL: K (via ok)
Oberon
I read about the Oberon programming language today.
TI MSP430
Reading about the TI MSP430 microcontroller. A pretty nifty looking device. It is referenced in Zen and the Forth Language: EFORTH for the MSP430 from Texas Instruments.
Forth
I’m reading Discover FORTH: Learning and Programming the FORTH Language and I have a growing interest in the programming language Forth. Here are a few resources:
And some other books on Forth:
And there are a heap of Forth books by Juergen Pintaske.
Object-Oriented Programming, lecture by Daniel Ingalls
This turned up in my feed today: Object-Oriented Programming, lecture by Daniel Ingalls. It’s an old talk about the advantages of object-oriented programming from one of the inventors of Smalltalk (Dan Ingalls).
bondi
So I was able to compile bondi with a little help from my friend epilys.
It went a little something like this:
$ sudo apt install opam $ opam init $ opam switch create 4.06.1 $ opam install base $ opam install ocaml-lsp-server $ opam install stdlib-shims $ dune build
I’m not certain stdlib-shims was required and the ocaml-lsp-server was for vscode integration (I think).
Scrapscript
This looks interesting: scrapscript. It’s a new programming language currently under development.
