Pyrefly vs. Ty: Comparing Python's two new Rust-based type checkers
(edward-li.com)
Earlier this month, two new Rust-based Python type checkers hit the spotlight: pyrefly and ty. Although neither is officially released, they are a welcome change to the Python type checking world, historically dominated by mypy and pylance.

Access Control Syntax

I’m still tinkering on a scripting language for my hobby fantasy console project. I’m ashamed to admit this, but up to this point, the language had absolutely no notion of modules.

Lisp in Space
(corecursive.com)
Have you ever had a unique approach to a problem and been excited to use it, but you meet with skepticism. That’s today’s story. What happens if you take someone who’s passionate about a certain approach and put them in an organization where that’s just not the way things are done? Today is the story of getting LISP into space.

Hacker News now runs on top of Common Lisp
(gitlab.io)
Hacker News was written in the Arc lisp dialect, a dialect created by Paul Graham. Arc was implemented on top of Racket, but that has now changed. HN runs on top of SBCL since a few months.

We Tested 7 Languages Under Extreme Load and Only One Didn't Crash
(freedium.cfd)
In the quest for reliable systems that can handle extreme workloads, choosing the right programming language is critical. We designed a comprehensive stress test to push seven popular languages to their absolute limits, measuring performance under conditions that would make most systems buckle. The results challenged our preconceptions and revealed surprising strengths in an unexpected contender.

Why Algebraic Effects?
(antelang.org)
Algebraic effects1 (a.k.a. effect handlers) are a very useful up-and-coming feature that I personally think will see a huge surge in popularity in the programming languages of tomorrow.
