This post introduces pattern‐match coverage checking in Vig, showing how Luc Maranget’s constructor‑matrix algorithm can be implemented in Rust to detect unreachable arms and guarantee exhaustiveness at compile time without any runtime cost.

Why and how to support hexadecimal, octal, and binary literals in your lexer. Improve dev experience by validating and parsing multiple bases at compile time.

Vig is a new functional programming language that blends subset polymorphism, refinement types, and rich set-based constructs to catch errors at compile time without runtime overhead.

Exploring the Shunting Yard algorithm, how does it parse infix expressions into postfix or AST form, with insights into handling precedence, associativity, and extensions for unary operators and functions.

AI’s arrival has shifted coding from forum deep-dives and trial-and-error to “vibe coding,” where LLMs handle boilerplate and prototyping but lack true understanding.
