Hack Lang: Contexts and Capabilities
Learned of this in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37186869 it was posted 2 years ago to no discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30291459 seems far more interesting than that.
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/blob/master/hphp/hack/doc/H... appears to be where it was proposed, and has more background than the current docs.
- Has Meta/Facebook stopped developing hacklang?
-
Hacklang is no longer opensource?
also fredemmott is not working on it any more https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/9376

Interesting ocaml mention in buck2 by fb
Hack and Flow are also written in OCaml.

Buck2, a large scale build tool written in Rust by Meta, is now available

Taking Hack Seriously - Slack Engineering
Compared to PHP, with its visible community, Hack/HHVM does seem like a dead-end technology. But it’s very actively maintained and it powers the largest website on the planet. It definitely doesn’t make sense for the average PHP developer to switch (and the article steers clear of evangelising) but it also definitely doesn’t make sense for us to switch back.

I know that's the name of the language, I'm asking about the first P
PHP is nearly as old as the web. Change the conversation and say: I use Hack on the Hip Hop Virtual Machine

Wax compiler – a tiny language designed to transpile to other languages
This remineds me of Haxe[1]. I like Wax better because of the Common-Lisp-like syntax.

Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball
I thought this was a three.js demo but it's actually built with a language called haxe [1]. I've never heard of this language before and looks really cool. Makes me want to play with it!

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
The Haxe programming language (https://haxe.org/). It's insane how unpopular this is compared to its value.
"Haxe can build cross-platform applications targeting JavaScript, C++, C#, Java, JVM, Python, Lua, PHP, Flash, and allows access to each platform's native capabilities. Haxe has its own VMs (HashLink and NekoVM) but can also run in interpreted mode."
It's mostly popular in game dev circles, and is used by: Nortgard, Dead Cells, Papers Please, ... .

Is this idea worth pursuing? (a common grammar interface for various interpreted languages written in C)
Sounds like haxe: https://haxe.org/

I really enjoyed programming in AS3, and https://haxe.org/ was really helpful at the time to make development easier.

TIL: "private_constant"
Been tinkering in the Haxe programming language recently. I definitely suggest checking it out, but one thing I liked was private constants. I know other languages have this, but its where I've encountered it most recently.
What are some alternatives?
