Three ways to add Ruby Macros, by Ola Bini. “I should begin by saying that none of these options are entirely practical right now…” The “hack the AST directly”-part seems missing.
After the thinkpad exploded, Alan Cox’s thinkpad blew up. Wow.
Abstract Machine for LDL, by Danette Chimenti, Ruben Gamboa, and Ravi Krishnamurthy. “We propose an abstract machine for LDL that maintains a high-level view of an LDL program while incorporating aspects of its execution that make a performance difference. A canonical AND/OR graph corresponding to the LDL program provides the skeleton of its execution.”

Is “post OO” just over?, “The author of this essay finds that much of aspect-oriented programming’s success seems to be based on the conception that it improves both modularity and the structure of code, while in fact, it actually works against the primary purposes of the two, namely independent development and understandability of programs.”
Ruby’s Array>>shift is shifty, and why conservative GC can be harmful.
Results of an informal GPLv3 poll amongst kernel contributors, not really surprising results.

On the Power of Magic, by Catriel Beeri and Raghu Ramakrishnan. “This paper considers the efficient evaluation of recursive queries expressed using Horn Clauses.”
Uschi Obermaier was a fashion model and groupie and one of the protagonists of the 1968 left-wing movement in Germany. She was regarded by many to be the sex symbol of the 1968 generation in Europe. Happy birthday!
Coral is a deductive system which supports a rich declarative language, and an interface to C++ which allows for a combination of declaritive and imperative programming. The declarative query language supports general Horn clauses augmented with complex terms, set-grouping, aggregation, negation, and relations with tuples that contain (universally quantified) variables.
