    Hi,

    So the Rob Pike account shows the full
    extend how people become schizophrenice
    or get amnesia in the age of the AI Boom.

    How it started:

    "Kernighan and Pike listed Mark V. Shaney
    in the acknowledgements in The Practice
    of Programming,[12] noting its roots in
    Mitchell's markov, which, adapted as shaney,
    [13] was used for "humorous deconstructionist
    activities" in the 1980s.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_V._Shaney

    How its going:

    "Fuck you people. Raping the planet,
    spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable
    equipment while blowing up society, yet
    taking the time to have your vile machines
    thank me for striving for simpler software." https://bsky.app/profile/robpike.io/post/3matwg6w3ic2s

    Or it was one of the many academic frauds,
    that Rob Pike even appeared talking about
    the earl AI bot, to get false credits?

    Bye

    P.S.: Has somebody seen Julio Di Egidio recently?
    He posted the same vile machines stance on
    SWI-Prolog shortly between 2025 and 2026,

    got probably banned and disappeared [forever?].
    Well good ridance that he *plonked* himself,
    fucking moron who didn't understand

    rational trees, yet harassed me.

    Hi,

    Just a quick take on the golang pulse:

    How it started:

    A Comparative Study of Language Implementations https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2502.01651

    How its going:

    Co-Creator of Go Language is Rightly Furious https://itsfoss.com/news/rob-pike-furious/

    Rob Pike going bonkers over AI.

    Bye

    See especially, ca factor 4x-5x behind:

    Go < Julia < Rust < C < Zig < Mojo < C++
    (a): Average tokens per second for stories15M.bin model

    Go < Julia < Rust < Zig < C < C++ < Mojo
    (c): Average tokens per second for stories42M.bin model

    So I guess its back to Fortran.

    Hi,

    Just a quick take on the Prolog pulse:

    - SWI-Prolog: Dead Horse, LISP / MeTTa is it.

    - Scyer: Dead Horse, no core commits

    - Ciao Prolog: Dead Horse, no core commits

    - Who else?

    So I guess its back to Strawberry Prolog for teaching!

    They are also building AGI:
