MELT PhD student Lucas Kramer will be presenting his work on adding Generics (a la Haskell) to BlueSpec at the Haskell Implementers' Workshop. This is work he did while interning at Google. https://t.co/GXqN2gJLDG

We're giving a tutorial on our ableC extensible C compiler framework at PPoPP on Feb 16, with a focus on extensions for parallel programming. Consider attending or retweet to help us get the word out. Thanks. Details available here: https://t.co/VsoLgzWBM4

Many extensible language talks as @splashcon this week - hear about our work at @sleconf, @GPCECONF, OOPSLA, @wsdsldi, and Parsing@SLE.

[DSLDI @wsdsldi]

And if you're just checking in, note our fantastic invited speaker: @Felienne! #dsldi2016

[Tijs van der Storm @tvdstorm]

“Programming” is just the right word. Not coding, developing, engineering, constructing, implementing. Programming. #programming
