    "Welcome to Magic School. Here is your schedule."
    "Thanks! But..."
    "Yes?"
    "This is just 'Ethics' and 'Human rights' and things like that."
    "Correct, that's the first year curriculum."
    "Do we have to learn all this?"
    "Of course! What do you think this is, software engineering?"

    @aaronpk Huh, that's a tough question. Functions and some kind of module-like construct as units of code reuse, and... I guess a syntax for comments?

    It's easier for me to list features I think other people might consider mandatory that I don't think are critical, like objects, or loops, or Turing-completeness 😁

    Or to list features I wish every language had but can't insist on, like type inference, sum types (aka "tagged unions"), and closures.

    - robust community support and adoption
    - good impedance match with problem space
    - excellent support tooling

    note that none of those are about the BNF.

    What are the three features a programming language absolutely must have in order for you to use it?

    No wrong answers! Go!

    I really hope IndieAuth takes off at some point and allows us to privately host our own decentralized and federated authentication.

    Was the hotel that bad or the city?

    Aaron Parecki
    I mean I'm not a huge fan of California suburbs in general, but there were so many things wrong with that hotel... the elevators were down for a whole day, hot water went out one morning, the sheets had weird red stains, etc etc. I really should post a proper review.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
