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.
The T2 Tile Project
Today I discovered The T2 Tile Project. Looks pretty cool! It’s a whole new approach to computing with a focus on robustness.
The project is being run by David Ackley.
The early days of Linux
This was a fun read, about Linus and the early days of Linux: The early days of Linux. I didn’t know he was a gamer! But, I suppose, who isn’t? :)
Auditors
This is just for the record. (So I can find it later, if it turns out that I want to.)
Mentioned here: KeePassXC Audit Report.
Sourcegraph
Heard about Sourcegraph today. Haven’t actually used it. Seems like the big use case I’d be interested in is code search.
