In another window, regarding Julia po= tentially emerging as a Python replacement, I was writing a separate privat= e email to someone else about Julia's unfortunate lack of static type syste= m like infamous Dylan's unfortunate lack of static type system but unlike F= ortress's static type system. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_(programming_language)#Language_feature= s Another gaff: I wrote =E2=80=9Cparent UID=E2=80=9D a few replies ago where= fixed UID and fixed parent-PID should have been discussed separately. And yes, Pink was where Taligent taught the C++ world about mix-in inherita= nce as the =E2=80=A2only=E2=80=A2 useful restricted(-via-idiomatic-self-dis= cipline) form of C++ multiple inheritance, as borrowed from the Lisp-family= language Flavors, where pure-interface is captured via inheritance (i.e., = without any nonzero-length extension to the record). Nowadays we almost al= l call it =E2=80=9Cinterface inheritance=E2=80=9D instead of mix-in, forget= ting the Flavors, Taligent, and Pink seminal references of yesteryear preda= ting Java.
