My sister was one of the many students who signed multiple letters of defense. She leans very much to the left end of the ideological spectrum but still had nothing but amazing things to say. What a shame.

Re:Ask HN: What's the process of writing a new programming language? on Wednesday May 04, 2016 @02:30AM (#11626605)

Is there a typical preferred language to write lexers and parsers in? I imagine Python would be quite intuitive...

Re:Ask HN: What's the process of writing a new programming language? on Monday May 02, 2016 @08:45PM (#11617005)

As the question is about a side-project, does the book also dive into languages that compile into another relatively high-level language (i.e. C) apart from writing a language the compiles directly into assembly? I'm more interested in building something light-weight to understand the general process than building something completely from the ground up.
