Hello!

This is the current Lemmy equivalent of https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammingLanguages/.

The content and rules are the same here as they are over there. Taken directly from the /r/ProgrammingLanguages overview:

This community is dedicated to the theory, design and implementation of programming languages.

Be nice to each other. Flame wars and rants are not welcomed. Please also put some effort into your post.

This isn't the right place to ask questions such as "What language should I use for X", "what language should I learn", and "what's your favorite language". Such questions should be posted in /c/learn_programming or /c/programming.

This is the right place for posts like the following:

See /r/ProgrammingLanguages for specific examples

Yeah, MLIR is more or less an “IR with Dialects”, a lot of IR language spec share a lot in common with one another, so MLIR try to standardize that similarity between IR

Oh, shit, that sounds like C all over again, just for GPUs this time.

But that note aside, definitely sounds like something I need to learn more about.

Lol, that one way to put it. Basically a language convergence, not a bad thing to be honest.
