This article describes almost exactly why I think gradual typing is actually a good thing. Type checkers shouldn't get in the way of your code compiling. Yes, the language has to be designed with this property from the beginning. Yes, you should always enforce complete checking in CI. But you should also be able to try half-baked ideas.

If you have never used QLab, I recommend downloading it and tinkering for a little while. It is probably the best-designed native macOS app that I’ve ever come across, finely tuned by a handful of developers for something like 15 years. It’s a great reminder of what apps _could_ feel like.

That's a strange lisp...

A few other strategies for solving this problem include something along the lines of the Small Clojure Interpreter (1) and Defunctionalization (2, 3)

In general, you should be thinking about the delivery semantics of the systems calling your code. Many very useful callers offer "at least once" delivery guarantees, implying that your system should behave idempotently to their calls.

@borkdude’s sci actually seems like a nice contender for this as well.

New comment by telekid in "Milton Glaser, designer of ‘I ♥ NY’ logo, has died"

telekid — Sat, 27 Jun 2020 04:15:21 +0000

Sad to hear of his passing - Glaser was prolific. I used to work fairly regularly with a company (Masque Sound) that provided audio equipment for Broadway shows. Milton arranged a beautiful illustration for their 75th anniversary. I still have a shirt with that drawing on it - it's a cherished possession.
