| r_schestowitz | I remember sharing similar thoughts, @tomgrz, but more on the level that achieving colloquial bidirectional source-to-source translation of code between arbitrary programming languages would (1) represent an adequate training challenge as preparation for colloquial human languages translation, and would (2) if achieved, enable coders to pick the language of their choice to intervene on an established codebase. The dream. | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | The browser has made Javascript the main target of source to source translation to high-level languages, pretext for me to shamelessly plug here mention of such an effort, Brython, to which I participated indirectly by authoring a lean and mean Python sudoku solver adopted early on by the lead of the Brython project, Pierre Quentel, to showcase that the approach was fast enough to be useful. | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | The demo page is at https://brython.info/gallery/sudoku.html that includes a link to the listing. | Oct 04 02:38 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-brython.info | NO TITLE | Oct 04 02:38 | |
| r_schestowitz | The story of that solver is that back in 2006 I spent multiple months evolving versions of a pure python Sudoku solver, using no “included batteries”, by simultaneous optimization of LOC count and raw speed in the standard CPython implementation – until I couldn’t do any better. Then I felt ashamed for the time I’d spent on it and buried it. Five years later I stumbled upon a blog post someone had just written, comparing | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | sudoku solver implementations across languages, so I submitted a pick out of my dozens versions in a comment, after tweaking the code in a couple minor ways to help legibility. | Oct 04 02:38 |

| r_schestowitz | The fun bit was that ancillary to the overt intention of the blog post was the intention of the author, Heng Li, to showcase the performance of a particular internal representation for sudoku that I’d independently adopted. He had written solvers using that representation in multiple languages, including Python. His Python solver, however, was marginally slower than the textbook Python implementation that Peter Norvig, the head of | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | Google research, had published. My own solver revealed about 4 times faster and 4 times more concise (partly because it didn’t bother with any sudoku player-friendly display of the sudoku grid). | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | A particular irony of this situation is the light it casts on the “Zen of Python” line, “There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.” | Oct 04 02:38 |

| r_schestowitz | I’m aware of the Racket programming environment, but not others… | Oct 04 02:38 |

| r_schestowitz | i believe qb64, fig, coffescript, freebasic are all source to source compilers. only one of those im not confident about is freebasic. | Oct 04 02:38 |
| r_schestowitz | i just found one called ROSE. which means there are two-- i made a source-to-source compiler called rose as well. (i dont use it for much, though it inspired a feature in an extended version of fig.) | Oct 04 02:38 |

| r_schestowitz | Now imagining a pair of reciprocal source-to-source compilers, there will be two cases, those whose pairs whose combination converges to a fixed point (or perhaps a short cycle) when iterated, and those for which that’s not the case. I believe current technology makes it hard to avoid the second case, yet curing that automatically looks like an interesting problem. | Oct 04 02:38 |

| r_schestowitz | Here is a good example where a fellow made use of a minimal Lisp to bootstrap a high-level language: | Oct 04 02:39 |

| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-shenlanguage.org | Shen Doc | Oct 04 02:39 | |
| r_schestowitz | The Shen mission was to develop an ultra-portable version of Qi that can run under a wide variety of platforms and which incorporates missing features in Qi such as streams. This approach involved rewriting and redesigning Qi to fit within the smallest feasible instruction set. - The means of achieving this involves developing a small fast Lisp called Kl which is rich enough to encode Qi, but small enough to be easily mapped into other | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | platforms or implemented as a standalone. | Oct 04 02:39 |

| r_schestowitz | i prefer python for that, but racket is certainly used for this purpose. there is a course at brown that uses racket for this. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | any turing-complete language can be used for this purpose. some languages are better suited than others. i consider lisp and python both highly-suited to the task. i simply prefer to work with python for many reasons. javascript, for those who love it, is also suitable. | Oct 04 02:39 |

| r_schestowitz | i mean this is how i teach people to create their own toy language: | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | define commands as functions | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | parse input source according to the rules they want | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | output python source that calls those functions | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | make exceptions for things that cant be defined as functions, like “swap a b” becomes “a, b = b, a” in python | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | 3 and 4 are often as trivial as printing (or file writing) the contents of variables with added parentheses and commas. really basic text manipulation. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | 1 is basic everyday coding. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | 2 can also be made trivial, and the thing youre most likely to find libraries for-- you know, parsers. but i tend to create my own. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | short answer: yes. there are parsers available for python, javascript, even php. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | of course im in favour of people creating more projects like this-- both for themselves and for other people interested in learning this aspect of programming. | Oct 04 02:39 |
| r_schestowitz | i keep it simple-- i like to teach programming language creation for relatively inexperienced programmers, who become better versed as a result of trying to do this. | Oct 04 02:39 |

| r_schestowitz | Based on WIkipedia FSF has just 11 members of staff (maybe less depending on their IRS filing), so I can understand capacity limits… | Oct 04 08:17 |
| r_schestowitz | capacity limits are irrelevant if they made more use of volunteers. | Oct 04 08:17 |
| r_schestowitz | the most realistic way to view the shortcomings of the fsf is they treat software freedom as their baby (which itself is not a problem at all) and they are helicopter parents. | Oct 04 08:18 |
| r_schestowitz | if it werent for this style of parenting, it would be easier for those who really believe in software freedom to help guard the baby while keeping it in touch with the real world. instead, the baby stays “at home” where it is brought up in a relatively isolated environment, guarded only by 11 very tired, overworked parents as a swat team led by GAFAM try to kidnap it forever. | Oct 04 08:18 |
| r_schestowitz | it would be better if the fsf had an army of babysitters, the child would be more prepared able to flourish and take over the world someday. maybe the reason the 11 caretakers are so protective is because of their extremely negative experience with the open source babysitting agency-- but this is still unhealthy for the childs development and the truth is– | Oct 04 08:18 |
| r_schestowitz | if free software wants to take over the entire world, it must also belong to the entire world. it cant remain in isolation and develop a capacity for much greater change. we need to get it further out into the world for it to grow, and it is not hard to find examples of the fsf putting limits on that. | Oct 04 08:18 |
| r_schestowitz | there are some rules we need to respect-- some core things only an enemy would try to change. but the fsf puts too many unnecessary things in that category. it has not learned to distinguish the VITAL laws from the minor obsessions.

| r_schestowitz | This is perhaps the central problem with the Green Party US gaining access to more voters: since we do not accept donations from corporate-affiliated PACs or corporate executives, we often have very little money to work with.

| r_schestowitz | Thanks for reminding me why I can’t stand Chris Hedges. | Oct 04 08:28 |
| r_schestowitz | *“They turned on him not over an egregious impeachable offense…but because he made the fatal mistake of trying to take down a fellow member of the ruling elite.” | Oct 04 08:28 |
| r_schestowitz | What a load of crap! Wasn’t Hillary part of that “ruling elite” as well, and isn’t trump? This is another example of pseudo-left populists agreeing with the right-wing, populist, false, analysis. And besides, the shake-down of the Ukranian PM…and for his own political gain is an egregious impeachable offense, whether it’s victim is part of the establishment or not! | Oct 04 08:28 |
| r_schestowitz | But worst of all, is the statement: "“It would not impede ICE from hunting down the undocumented and ripping children from their arms to pen them in cages.” How the fuck does he reach that conclusion? Babies in cages, and forced separation, are policies very specific to this particular deranged madman. No other president has done it, and a Democratic president is sure to discontinue it. I guess none of his children are in cages so | Oct 04 08:28 |
| r_schestowitz | it is not a real issue to him. | Oct 04 08:28 |
| r_schestowitz | The fact that he packages it with some legitimate criticisms of the US is no excuse for such a horrendous oversight. | Oct 04 08:28 |
