<EWEW>cwebber: augmenting the design doc you posted. I'm finding wingo's blog and actual implementations in https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git/tree/module/language a good addition to wrap my head around his style of thinking.

<dthompson>wingo's blog is a treasure trove of great compiler stuff

<EWEW>it is, I have to peel myself away. I'm already too many articles deep.

<dthompson>:)

<EWEW> https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Extending-the-Compiler.html i feel personally attacked by the first paragraph

<jfred>LATEL certainly looks like a practical language ;P

<pinoaffe>jfred: yup, I'm working on translating (part of) Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus into Latel :)

<cwebber>seconding dthompson. I once linked a friend to wingolog.org and they accused me of "wingorolling" them two hours of them rabbitholing them later

<cwebber>wingo: you've achieved *roll status and you may not have known

<EWEW>Let's just say it ate 8 hours of my day yesterday. I woke up today feeling like I have a hangover. I start to go through all of my browser tabs and I find myself reading through stuff like https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git/tree/libguile/vm-engine.c?h=wip-tailify

<EWEW>definitely *roll status

<cwebber>being wingorolled is directly one of the key elements responsible for Spritely happening

<cwebber>that's how I learned about ocaps

<cwebber> https://wingolog.org/archives/2011/03/19/bart-and-lisa-hacker-edition

<cwebber>which linked to http://mumble.net/~jar/pubs/secureos/secureos.html

<EWEW>For me the next most recent re-entry into all of these inter-related problems was stumbling upon http://prize.hutter1.net/ and spending too much time on it. All of a sudden I find myself buried in a pile of philosophy of language books.

<EWEW>"but what IS meaning?"

<EWEW>which of course gets even more complicated when multiple parties/entities are involved in "interpretation"
