Pipelining in Programming Languages: A Love Letter to Readability

2025-04-21

This article explores the benefits of pipelining in programming languages, focusing on its impact on code readability and maintainability. The author argues that features like method chaining and similar constructs significantly improve code clarity by linearizing data processing steps. Compared to nested function calls, pipelining leads to easier reading, modification, and debugging, and enhances IDE autocompletion and version control. Examples in Rust, Haskell, and SQL illustrate the application of pipelining across different programming paradigms, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of various approaches.

Google's Carbon: Not Just a C++ Successor, But a Technical Debt Reckoning

2025-02-08

Google's experimental programming language, Carbon, isn't merely a C++ replacement; it's a project aiming to tackle C++'s massive technical debt through automated tools for large-scale migration to a modern, maintainable language. Stemming from disagreements with the C++ standards committee over the language's future direction, Carbon seeks to free itself from committee constraints, enabling more agile evolution. While a monumental challenge, Carbon leverages tools like Clang and LLVM, unifying abstractions via interfaces to address C++'s complexity, offering a potential solution for the vast C++ codebases that will persist for decades to come.
