   Dual purpose

   I like the idea of YouTube serving as a search engine and an entertaining feat

• My history with Forth, and stack machines

  My impression so far is (in general), Forth are practically limited to doing embedded/microcontroller development. For us, web/mobile/desktop app devs, beside: - 8th (https://8th-dev.com) - Factor (https://factorcode.org) Any suggestion which implementation we should look for? - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Pharo 11, the pure object-oriented language and environment is released!

  Factor is also very much worth a look. Forth-style syntax, but with many of the ideas from CL and Smalltalk as well. In fact as a CL fan, I was very impressed by it. It's also quite "batteries included" a la Python. Source: about 1 year ago

• The toki pona of programming.

  Otherwise, and more seriously, I'm not completely sure variables are needed. Factor is quite usable (it's my favorite go-to language if I quickly need to script something), and mostly doesn't have them. Source: about 1 year ago

• What the hell is Forth? (2019)

  Is there any "battery-included" ANS Forth (more or less like Python/Go) which provides access to concurrency, networking, database, GUI, etc? Not an embedded device programmer, but mostly deals with frontend apps, and occasionally backend, so those are very relevant to me. Or perhaps use "non-traditional" Forths like 8th (https://8th-dev.com) or Factor (https://factorcode.org)? - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• A Dynamic Forth Compiler for WebAssembly

  There's a note on the page from 2022-08-19, that a lot has been added to it. It also links to the github page[1] for the up-to-date changes. I am a Lisp, April, APL/J/BQE, and Forth[2] aficionado. I did some file munging programs in Factor back in 2012 at my job to sort through theater attendance logs in Word to compile statistics.

• Tesla's FSD – A Useless Technology Demo

  Well if their sales grow exponentially you might be correct, but I’m not sure that’s the case. I’ve seen some pretty impressive videos on this channel: https://youtube.com/@aidrivrclips?si=dYOXOhn5cdGDpWmh. - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago

• Ask HN: Share Your YoutTube Channel

  Here’s mine: https://youtube.com/@chadobear I have a repo with some of the stuff I use to produce my videos, too: https://gitlab.com/crgk/chadobear-monorepo/-/tree/main/studio?ref_type=heads It’s very sloppy and hacky and maybe(?) more interesting to this audience than the videos themselves. - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• I learned Vulkan and wrote a small game engine with it (in 3 months)

  Highly recommend this guy’s channel, he livestreams building a Vulkan game engine and he has a crazy style too https://youtube.com/@tokyospliff?si=CMF53295xeETykbP. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• Broadcom's VMware strategy looks ever more shaky – and less relevant

  Probably. One of the most informative channels out there. https://youtube.com/@asianometry. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Kernel dev writes a USB driver from scratch in 3h [video]

  I need to make sure that SerenityOS project owner Andreas Kling’s channel is mentioned: https://youtube.com/@awesomekling He hasn’t been uploading much recently but the backlog is full of OS development, applications ported to his OS and his most recent mission, building a web browser from scratch. - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago
