We are hosting the MIT Programming Languages Review on April 25th in person here at MIT! The PLR is a student-run workshop that aims to highlight the best papers from the past year that we believe will have a significant impact on shaping the future direction of PL research.

My tierlist for the PoE2 ascendancies. First pic: MINIMUM tier expected for an ascendancy (pessimistic evaluation, given that we don't know a lot) 2nd pic: likelyhood for a tier to be better than tiered. However: that's a risk/chance. Do you agree? What's your S tiers?

If you’re looking to this person for your Twitter content on programming languages and functional programming, look elsewhere. I’ll follow-up in this thread with some folks who I recommend.

I'm defending my PhD thesis on "Provably Correct, Secure, and Leakage-Free Systems" on Monday 7/15. One key result: we verified an ECDSA signing HSM (2.3 kLOC of code and 14 kLOC of Verilog) against a succinct 50 LOC spec. Learn more at the public defense (in-person or Zoom)!

Listen, I love and appreciate USPS. That being said, they are the undisputed and possibly undefeated final boss of ADHD.

Our server sleds don't have a BIOS/UEFI, it's a radical decision but it's part of a first-principles approach to security along that with hardware root of trust and trust quorum ensures that the entire rack-level computer is securely attested to: youtube.com/watch?v=fEy0VKSF…

Once you understand ZFS file system, you are spoiled forever and the dynamic range of what constitutes great design expands permanently. A new benchmark is set. I've heard similar things about FreeBSD, need to find time to mess around with it. Font is TX-24 Houston Mono™

That wonderful feeling when you see a paper about a topic you've thought about on and off (in a somewhat different setting, in this case) for a long time but been too lazy to get off your ass to work on. Really nice work: perso.ens-lyon.fr/thais.baud…

According to Bloomberg, HashiCorp is shopping itself. I think that their notorious relicensing last year is more reflective of an ailing business rather than its cause, but it is nonetheless worth revisiting my #P99CONF talk calling out this (mis)behavior youtube.com/watch?v=um5bC20N…
