In this episode, I excerpt and discuss the 1969 ACM Turing Award Lecture by Marvin Minsky.
-
In this episode, I read from One Man's View of Computer Science, the 1968 ACM Turing Lecture by Richard Hamming.

-
In this episode, we read excerpts of Maurice Wilke's 1967 ACM Turing Award lecture titled 'Computing Then and Now'.
-
In this episode, I read excerpts from Alan Perlis's Turing Award Lecture called 'The Synthesis of Algorithmic Systems'.
-
In this episode, I contemplate whether I am an early adopter or a pragmatist, and how that influenced my choice of Clojure. Does Clojure appeal to early adopters? Has it crossed the chasm?
-
In this episode, I read from Lambda: The Ultimate GOTO. We learn whether avoiding GOTOs makes your code better and how to make function calls fast.
-
In 1977, John Backus presented an algebraic vision of programming that departed from the von Neumann fetch-and-store semantics. This seminal paper has influenced functional programming in many ways. In this episode, I read excerpts from and comment on John Backus's 1977 Turing Award Lecture paper Can Programming Be Liberated from the von Neumann Style? A Functional Style and Its Algebra of Programs.
-
In this episode, I excerpt and comment on a seminal paper in programming language design, from all the way back in 1966, called The Next 700 Programming Languages.

What causes an API to cross the line into becoming a DSL? Is it really a 'I'll know it when I see it' situation? I've been searching for an answer for years. And I think I found it in a paper I read recently for this podcast: Lisp: A language for stratified design. In this episode, we go over the main factor that makes an API a DSL: the closure property.
-
I've never been satisfied with the standard definition of 'software design'. Is the term useful? What could it mean that is useful? In this episode, I talk about some definitions that I don't agree with and explain my definition.
-
In this episode, I read excerpts from Why Functional Programming Matters by John Hughes. Does it answer the question of what is functional programming and why is it powerful?
-
Out of the Tar Pit came out 14 years ago and it was a big influence on my thinking. I've thought a lot about it and I want to share some extensions and refinements of the ideas in the paper. Specifically, I hope to present a more objective definition of complexity and refine the idea of Essential vs. Accidental complexity.
-
In this episode, I read excerpts from Out of the Tar Pit, a classic paper in the functional programming community.
-
I try to define software architecture, both in the large and in the small.
-
We read one of the great articles by Alan Kay, inventor of Smalltalk.
-
In this first episode of season 3, we analyze a great paper called Lisp: A language for stratified design.
-
I'm taking a break to retool for Season 3, which will start in the new year. I also give an update on Grokking Simplicity. I am working on Chapter 7.
-
Bruno Ribeiro asked a great question about the practical uses of monads. Are they useful? Why are they used so much in Haskell? In this episode, we briefly go over the history of monads in Haskell and how they allow you to do imperative programming in a pure functional language.
