@@tophy9865 Thanks for the question, there's a number of reasons. Like you mentioned, I prefer to develop on Linux, but I've often found the desktop environments to be less stable than I like. Developing remotely also means that I can develop from anywhere, with any level of internet connection. It's also useful to be about to start big computational processes and have them run in the background while I've put my laptop to sleep. Finally, if I somehow mess up the environment, it's very easy to destroy it and just start up a fresh instance. There are lots of other little benefits but those are some of the main reasons for me 😊

@@BartyDontCrouch Thanks so much, I appreciate it! Haha, yes it is 😄

@@RefRed_King The current language is called Seed, which I'll be using as a basis for another language I'm provisionally calling Ash 😊

@@smortimerk seed ash

Thanks so much 😊

Haha, I hadn't thought about that but I guess so! 😄

It doesn't require an extension, it's default Vim behaviour, and you can configure it in your .vimrc: set listchars=tab:\ ▸,eol:¬,trail:·

@@smortimerk Thank you

Hi, thanks for the question! I would say it depends on what your goals are. I've learned a few languages so I would say in general it doesn't really matter what language you start with, but I'd generally pick a language that lets you do fun things quickly. While it's not my favourite language, JavaScript is usually the language I recommend because of how easy it can be to get started with.

Completely possible. Python is written in C

@@Christopher4700 i see, thanks for your feedback! If you don't mind me asking, what is the goal with this? Is it for learning or ur trying to improbe functions other programming languages are lacking? I really don't understan what is going on in the video and for that reason I only watched a really short bit.

Yes, you can define a language then write a compiler in another language. Eventually, you can write a compiler in that language and compile itself (self-hosting)

What you mean by “writing a programming language from another programming language” is called “compiler”. Think of the compiler like a translator which takes one programming language and “translates” it into another language, which is often indeed assembly (actually it’s machine code, because this is the only language a computer can run and understand, assembly is also just a abstraction on top, which makes machine code readable for us humans). So a compiler is a program which operates on some text (your program source code) and in what programming language you create the compiler is up to you. But most programming languages try to achieve a self compiling compiler, meaning that the compiler itself is written in the language it is supposed to compile (look up bootstrapping compiler for more info) but the initial first compiler needs to be in another language.

And yes, the first compilers had to be written in assembly or even worse in pure binary. But because this is really painful to do, people came up quite quickly with the concept of using the machine to translate a higher level language down to the machine code. But before you can implement your programming language by creating a compiler that understands it you need to design it. You need to come up with a grammar (like in a natural language), that defines rules for your programming language. If you are interested, I highly suggest the playlist 'Compilers with Professor Brailsford' and 'Chomsky Language Level' and related videos from Computerphile, if you want to get a broad overview of those topics in computer science.

Thanks so much, I'm glad you're enjoying them!

Its probably one of the inbuilt ones. Either torte or koehler.

@@easonwang3208 Yes! But sometimes it takes a while to add updates. You can track the project at github.com/eZanmoto/seed.

@@brkydnc5054 It's a Kinesis Advantage 2, I believe the keys are Cherry MXs 😊

So you mean machine code is slower than machine code?

@@well.8395 rust is not machine code it uses js under the hood

@@araz911 C is faster because it does not require unsaf% Segmentation fault (core dumped)

@@klasus2344 i see rust dev i see future homless dev

the C compiler and rust compiler are different, meaning that the resulting assembly calls of the two languages can be very different (C tends to be 1.04x faster than Rust)

Noob detected.

Haha, that's interesting! I've been wanting to make one for a while, it just so happened that in the last few years I found an actual problem to solve that justified it 😄

It's a fantastic way to learn how everything works on a computer. I'm wondering why you are not writing a programming language called 'beep'

bcuz you hit the IT section so there's no doubt that this comes as part of algorithm (You shouldnt have asked that if you could answer yourself, dont make it hard on yourself buddy)

Why not?

For my dev server I'm using Debian, I can't remember which version 😅

also curious about your PC's setup🤔@@smortimerk

@@ruiuniver4 Haha, the PC is just a plain MacBook Pro using iTerm2, but on the dev server I use Mosh, Tmux and Vim. I don't really change many settings though, so most of those just have the default configuration

Hmm, that may depend on the resolution you have the UA-cam video on, I would recommend at least 480p, but I believe these videos can also be viewed in 720p. I think some parts of the steam dropped to my internet connection so I'll be aiming to upload a local copy in future.

For compilers specifically I'm not so sure, but I think that reference implementations are very useful because you can step through the code and see what it does. I've found the projects at github.com/adam-mcdaniel very useful, especially with regards to LALRPOP. For compiler theory, it can also be useful to look into TAC/three-address code: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-address_code

That's great, best of luck with it! It's a lot of fun.

would you say that making your own compiler is a good project to do when learning to programme

@@essentiallifter Hmm, honestly it might be a bit advanced for an initial project, because there are a lot of layers and moving parts. An interpreter would be a lot easier than a compiler, but I'd still often recommend projects like games and web apps when learning to program.

Thanks for the request, sounds interesting! I'll see what I can do 😊

That's not the point bro...

Thanks very much for the suggestion, I'll be sure to do that!

That's tmux, it gives you the nice segmentation that you mentioned, but it also maintains different sessions and windows, so you can hop between different work environments easily.

Haha, it's actually just regular Vim. I use Neovim occasionally, especially with Go, but for this project I just used my default setup.

@@smortimerk did you set any parameters like smart tabs or something like that or a theme?, I’m learning to program in C and I installed Helix editor, I liked it but I think it’s overloaded and it’s worth installing vim again

I only really use NERDTree - you can see my .vimrc here: github.com/eZanmoto/dotfiles/blob/master/%3E.vimrc. I used to use Solarized but I've changed my environment so often that I just never reinstalled it. Contextual autocomplete and jump-to-definition are probably the main things that I miss, but I find bare Vim just tends to suit my workflow the best. Neovim could probably solve that in a generic way but I tend to give less time to configuring my environment these days.

@@smortimerk got it, I'll try vimrc, thanks
