I don’t see the problem. But that’s probably because my goto-language is perl.

It uses XML-like syntax:


<span style="color:#323232;"><fun>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  <name>sum</name>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  <in>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    <int>foo</int>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    <int>bar=0</int>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  </in>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  <out><int>foo+bar</int></out>
</span><span style="color:#323232;"></fun>
</span>

I like it, this is clearly very enterprisey and solution focused, but I would like to suggest a couple of amendments if I may?

  • Namespaces We should make full use of namespaces. Make the structural tags be in a language specific namespace (to be referenced in every function spec, obviously) but change the in an out params to use the parameter name as the tag, namespaced to the function they’re for, with a type attribute.
  • In memory message queues Have all function invocations be marshaled as xml documents posted to an in memory message queue. Said documents should use a schema that validates the structure and a function specific schema to validate the types of arguments being passed. Namespace everything.

I reckon we could power a medium sided country if we could generate energy from the programmers despair.

EffortlessEffluvium ,

The tag indentation is a required part of the syntax and don’t forget colons at the end of the tag

How did you come up with such a ****ingly stupid syntax?!

They probably have experience with Spring

Welcome to the world of abusing the shit out of Ant. My first full time job was developing Ant in unholy ways. Tens of thousands of lines of Ant at least, doing significant logic. If-then-else, for loops, math, procedures, date-time math. I stuck it out for a year. It was a year too long.

The whitespace is not only required, but it must be tabs and spaces.

Calm down, Satan

Compiler rolls the dice if your only required indentation is accepted as space or tab. Per line.

But stores this information as a metadata file, which gets invalidated when a new file is added/removed from the program muhahaha!

A_Very_Big_Fan ,

I took every coding class my highschool offered, and the only thing that drove me more crazy than this syntax was trying to use CSS.

fibojoly ,

That’s because you didn’t try our lord and savior SASS. Vanilla CSS should be illegal at this stage.

Make sure to make ample use of mixed content elements.

That’s basically how the Android app Tasker works. You do the programming through its UI, but when you export/share your tasks, they’re saved as xml

Python script script ^script^

Make CScript, an interpreted, duck-typed language

Zangoose , in More confusion for recruiters

Screw it. Let’s actually make python script an ISA that gets run on physical hardware with no higher level tooling. Then we can have the python virtual environment which runs this for fools who don’t have the right hardware. Finally, when people start complaining about naming we make Python Script 2.1, which is a JIT language built on top of IL that looks nothing like either of them but can emulate both python and python script with the performance cost of being a quarter as fast as both.

nexussapphire ,

Honestly if someone irons out the edge cases, python probably could JIT compile to machine code via cython. It would take a fair bit of memory and probably a bit slow on low powered systems but it would be so much faster if cached.

Zangoose ,

Technically I think python already has an intermediate step that it uses before it starts running a script that compiles it into a lower-ish language (at least the cpython interpreter does this, it probably isn’t a part of the language specification though)

The actual line between JIT languages and interpreted languages is pretty thin since I think most interpreted languages do something similar to minimize the amount that needs to be done at runtime

nexussapphire ,

I think at this point in time it JIT compiles into byte code which is more efficiently interpreted the next time that function is called.

    Just Google meatspin - it’ll be easier that way than explaining it here I think. One of those things you just have to see to understand.

    Just today I heard someone whining about how in LinkedIn and other recruitment sites there’s like five bazillion profile tag options for RDMBSes and various dialects of SQL… when in actuality the recruiters are probably only concerned if the developer can do a bloody SELECT and stuff.

    The elves did not pay their license to exist in Middle-Earth. And so their opacity decreased until their bodies completely fade away.

    @SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca avatar

    For some reason I’m picturing the elves as white trash sovereign citizen types refusing to pay their taxes.

    As they fade away… “The flag of Gondor doesn’t have a gold fringe on it and you didn’t write my name in all capitals at a 45 degree angle in red ink therefore this court doesn’t have the authority to…” poof!

    Except that they’ll put it in more… eloquent language. 😅

    The world is changed: I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, I smell it in the air… Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it. Thusly the government of Gondor shall not excise a tax upon my pouch of gold for their statutes shall not apply to my person henceforth.

    Actually, Pythonscript is a whitespace-sensitive Python-to-perl transpiler.

    Make a UX or Project management tool with “Java” in the name so newbie recruiters look for people in the wrong department.

    They already do this, but this would make them do it even more.

    nexussapphire , in Site: "I don't feel so good...."

    You delete each set of letter from least significant to most significant with $ replacing each letter and the title tag saying where’s my money. If all letters disappear swap the entire website with space jam website and this gif. https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmedia1.tenor.com%2Fm%2FF4c6JDjOd3MAAAAd%2Ffat-tony-simpsons.gif
