@rentzsch Decompilation sorts of things?

@jckarter nah, think dual runtimes

@rentzsch Not quite sure what you have in mind. Got a reference?

@jckarter sadly no, I have yet to find preexisting lit for this simple model. Really hope I’m not the first

@rentzsch Does it fit in a tweet, or a blog post? I'd be interested in hearing more.

@jckarter maayybbee? Can I pitch you the idea at WWDC? (Outside WWDC since I won’t have a ticket)

@rentzsch Sure. You'll be out front with a megaphone?

@rentzsch @jckarter Or what about dynamic-to-static? When exploring the problem space you want something fast and loose to work in at first…

@rentzsch @jckarter …but which you can progressively tighten as you crack the algorithm and refine implementation to a final distribution.

@rentzsch @jckarter Why do mainstream langs insist you work ALL one way or ALL the other? It's a terrible way to evolve code to a solution.

@hhas01 @rentzsch I'd love to see more flexibility here. It'll take implementation time to get there, and we're still just starting.

@jckarter @rentzsch That's the flaw in your logic right there: you don't make the cake taste better by throwing in MORE & MORE ingredients.

@jckarter @rentzsch You use the smallest number of ingredients that work together. You can then try lots of different variations on that.

@jckarter @rentzsch I blame CS schools—used to teach Lisp, which was plugins all the way down, but now it's all #RigidLanguagesForRigidMinds
