The author discusses the transformative impact of AI on programming, highlighting how advanced language models can now handle substantial coding tasks with minimal human intervention. While acknowledging the potential for job displacement, the author emphasizes the importance of adapting to these changes and using AI as a tool to enhance creativity and productivity in software development.
The author shares their experience of creating Beep, a fictional programming language, in collaboration with the AI tool Claude Code. Through detailed examples, they explore features like lexical and dynamic scoping, as well as the AI's assistance in solving complex programming challenges and refactoring code.
The author explores the concept of "vibe coding," where non-coders use AI tools like Bolt to create applications with minimal technical knowledge. While the process seems accessible and fun, the resulting applications often lack depth and robustness, raising questions about their real-world effectiveness. The journey illustrates both the potential and limitations of such tools in empowering non-technical users.
Durable Execution (DE) engines allow for the persistence of multi-step workflows, enabling them to resume from the last successful step after interruptions. This article explores the development of a simple DE engine called Persistasaurus in Java, which utilizes SQLite for logging execution state and highlights key implementation choices.
