I haven't read this yet, but from the title I'm surprised that it doesn't mention Kolmogorov complexity. How does Kolmogorov complexity relate to the concepts in this article?

> Astronomical tariffs [...] and from all of this they got only $130B ?

Which is it? A number can't be small and large at the same time.

Could someone ELI5 what this does?

Would be interesting to heard about similar attempts, in particular for other languages like C++.

Hmm, interesting! Sounds a bit like a DSL for ECS with tight integration of event handling.

I'm probably not gonna do it, but just out of interest: What is the syntax?

Music being "good" is subjective. A programming language, however, can objectively be better if it allows a subset of programmers to better solve certain problems.

The reason for why OCaml is not more popular, thus, is that this subset is small. The reason for this may be either (a) habit or (b) it's not that much better than other languages. I'm gravitating to (b). OCaml guys seem to be quite dogmatic for the wrong reasons.

His name is Strangeway, he's sporting this preposterous mustache, and he looks after Big Ben. The guy is basically a living meme lol. He must be fun at parties; at least for like 2 minutes haha.

Why "Geometry"? Seems to just be a math 101.

  // You are responsible for releasing the structure in the end
  arrow_array.release(&arrow_array);

This doesn't look like RAII. How is this idiomatic for C++20? Why do you have to pass a pointer to "this" again as an explicit argument.

As a German, that's exactly what I was thinking lololol
