TSM-10.1: HLIR – Homoiconic, High-Level Intermediate Representation
instructions in a homoiconic form. It represents a novel synthesis in compiler design by bridging the gap between human and machine representations of programs. By combining monadic composition with homoiconic structure, HLIR allows developers to express computational intent with minimal syntax while maintaining direct mappings to MLIR's powerful optimization framework. This marriage of high-level semantics with low-level compilation produces a uniquely ergonomic intermediate representation - one where code is data, transformations are first-class citizens, and optimization becomes natural rather than imposed. The result is a language that is both easy for humans to reason about and efficient for compilers to transform, potentially setting a new standard for intermediate representations in modern compiler design.
TSM-5: Homoiconic C (HC) Syntax Cheat Sheet
Homoiconic C ("HC") is a minimalist and highly expressive alternative to traditional programming languages. It eschews traditional grammar, keywords, and reserved words, focusing instead on a single type of object called a Frame. HC's syntax is a thin veneer over its robust semantics, which are centered around ubiquitous scope, consistent evaluation, and homoiconicity (symmetry between code and data). This cheat sheet provides an overview of HC's key syntactical elements.
TSM-4: Total Computing with Pres — The Future of Safe, Expressive Software
For decades, Turing-complete computing has been the bedrock of modern programming. While this has empowered developers to create powerful, general-purpose systems, it has also forced us to accept a troubling reality: bugs, crashes, and unpredictable behavior are often seen as inevitable. These issues are typically viewed as the price we pay for the flexibility and... Continue Reading →
