SOME PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE IDEAS

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

This developer provides some ideas for improving programming language design, such as loosening the strict definition of function calls to allow for better error handling. Other ideas include incorporating production-level features like standardized logging and metrics directly into language design. A central theme is improving the integration of relational databases and modularity within programming languages. The developer proposes concepts like a semi-dynamic language, which offers the convenience of dynamic typing during development but compiles to near-static efficiency.
