Kind (an efficient proof and programming language) retargeted to HVM (a garbage-collection-free virtual machine based on interaction nets).

A C++-like programming language.

I don’t care for the language, but the name is hilarious.

A constructed natural language that is also a programming language.

A programming language and theorem prover, designed to be approachable to programmers and mathematicians alike.

Code manual (as in documentation) generator with Javadoc and OpenAPI integration.

His preferred tax system: a personal expenditures tax. It works like the following:

  • Idea: Tax only consumption, but in a progressive way.
  • How? Tax people’s income (similar to how it is done today, but regardless of the source of income), deducting what they leave in savings (be it checking accounts, stocks, whatever).

What’s nice about this is that it is income-agnostic (capital gains and wages are taxed the same) and progressive while still incentivizing people to save.

Plus a Georgist land value tax, of course.

A small functional programming and proof language with accessible syntax.

Runtime for functional programs. Claims to be very efficient. Lazy, garbage-collection-free, parallel, and beta-optimal.

Comparison between different monadic effect systems.

I am still hoping Scala 3 gets a built-in effect system eventually so that all of this can go away. Monadic style does not fit the language well.

Functional programming language for the JVM with row types, algebraic effects, and embedded Datalog.

A framework for secure booting, building on top of whatever secure booting functionality the firmware provides and then taking over from there.
