The Alphabet Train once turned up crewed with ghosts, and after the initial shock passed, quickly became popular with people who wanted to end up somewhere entirely else on the globe fast - whatever the crew’s language was, it’d visit cities in that language’s alphabetical order.

Bad idea of the day: plan 9 from whitespace, a full implementation of plan9 in an extended version of the whitespace programming language, which ships with a printed copy of the source code (a blank notebook)
Language is a technology & we ought to start acting like it
ways of thinking that aren’t language:↵- climbing/dancing in ideaspace, problems as shifting mazes and solutions as lines of sight↵- letting flowers or cities grow before your inner eye↵- breathing in a concept so it unfolds like spiderwebs on the inside of your skull

You can trap even powerful gods in the right language: Well-hidden ambiguities will allow you to bind them, provided you can get the scripture translated that makes up their fabric
Hot take: the existence of garden path sentences tells us that: 1) language isn’t so much a representation of meaning as a way of representing constraints for possible intepretation, and 2) we start processing before all the constraints have arrived

How much bad UI design comes from a focus on making the UI consistent with underlying code that was designed based on ease of implementation in the programmer’s language of choice?
Javascript is a just-OK language saddled with the world’s worst graphics toolkit: three distinct languages, each with specs so large that nobody has written a new implementation in 20 years, for live-editing a rich tech document to make it resemble a canvas, in ways that are not portable between the 3 implementations or minor revisions of the same implementation.
Another formulation: the best of today’s GUIs make easy things easy and hard things impossible. The best of today’s programming languages make easy things hard and hard things harder. We don’t have a system that makes easy things easy and hard things merely hard for backwards-compatibility reasons.
