Prism: An Impure Functional Language With Typed Effects

I feel the author’s pain. LLMs take over right as we’re finally figuring out the unifying models and algorithms for programming languages.

Some time back I went on a tour of the fort at Dry Tortugas. Largest brick masonry fort in the world. Many innovations of the form. It was abandoned right as it was completed because barrel rifling had just been invented, dramatically increasing the penetrating power of artillery, rendering brick masonry forts obsolete virtually overnight.

This project evokes a similar feeling.

This sounds pretty cool. The author appears to be Claude.
