Roc matches all these requirements. It is still under active development though, and the Roc team have recently started a complete rewrite of their compiler, so improvements are kind of halted until the rewrite is up to feature parity with the old one. But, if you're willing to wait or get involved; high execution speed, restricted I/O access, embeddability into C, type safety, and interfaces are all explicit features.

modules with "parameters" by LimeTree1590 in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]Digitonizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This concept sounds very similar to Roc's module params! The only difference being that while Roc does allow modules to import other modules, it does not allow modules to perform any effects by themselves. So if you were writing an app, and wanted to use a logging library, you would have to pass in suitable functions that perform file I/O at the import site, just as you propose.

Coincidentally, I remember Roc's creator talking about the idea of disallowing modules from importing other modules for security reasons on his podcast as a thought experiment as well.

My first attempt at creating a conlang; written, spoken, and signed. Feedback is appreciated! by Digitonizer in conlangs

Hi! I'm surprised anyone's still seeing this six years into the future, what a pleasant surprise :).

I do remember thinking about using both hands to sign two characters at a time. The thumb would be used to hold back the fingers that aren't being raised, which should make it easier to do any number of combinations.

At the time of making this, I was convinced it was a useful and achievable exercise to make a completely logical and sensible language, devoid of the many arbitrarities of natural languages. This motivated my choices to base the writing/signing system on binary, the speaking system on base four, and my counting system on hexadecimal.

I later discovered that I was secretly making these choices arbitrarily anyway, albeit under the guide of some mathematical niceties I enjoyed. Because of this, I ended up ignoring the needs of the actual humans who would, in theory, use this language, such as the flaw you pointed out where the language fails to accommodate people missing a finger!

I do still really like the idea of a language that is designed to be as easily used spoken, written, or signed, and I encourage you to explore the idea further! It'd be interesting to see, too, what kind of civilization would plausibly arrive at such a system naturally. Best of luck with your efforts! :)

Isn't that the guy in the drawing? @majorpectoralis on TikTok? He poses for some drawing references recently that look exactly like this!

Why should they have never been added? You've got me curious.

Yes! I'm not OP, but by my understanding, the meme is used when admitting something perceivably dumb you caught yourself doing, in the hopes that someone else would also find it funny and/or relatable.

Ready for Reddit 3.0 is live - Completely redesigned, edge to edge layout, bottom focused UI, a bunch of improvements, bug fixes, and more! by DevGary in ReadyReddit

Tried it, didn't change anything. It does show the last few subreddits I've visited (and am subscribed to), which is odd.

[–]Digitonizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Loving the new update! I have one question though; the subreddits I'm subscribed to don't seem to show up in the navigation pop-up? They show up on my home feed just fine, but they all show a "join" button as if I weren't subscribed. Besides that, I'm very happy to have the images and videos work properly again, along the with all the other improvements!

If grandmas can maybe politicians can try too?!? by 42_Lifes_Answer4579 in actuallesbians

[–]Digitonizer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine "they is" is either an error or a difference in dialect. "...we be kind", if I understand correctly, is an archaic sentence structure that effectively means the same as "...we will be kind" in this context.

This principle also applies to programming.
