Growing a Language, by Guy Steele
Bill Pugh · 11 recommenders · 10 months
Guy Steele's 1998 OOPSLA keynote on designing a programming language that its users can grow. He builds the talk using only one-syllable words and terms he has defined, to demonstrate the idea.
Why Hacker News readers recommend it: HN considers it one of the best technical talks ever and cites it in discussions of language design, small cores and extensibility.
