Ben and Ryan are joined by Ryan’s former colleague and current backend engineer at Spotify, Omar Delarosa, to talk about time-traveling programming languages, a keyboard that turns an iPhone into a Blackberry, and what it’s like working on everyone’s personal DJ.
Mariposa is a toy programming language that has time travel as a primary feature. Bugs are a thing of the past (literally)!
Miss having a physical keyboard when thumb-typing on your phone? Well, you’re in luck.
Over at CES, LG Electronics wants your devices to have “affectionate intelligence.” Whatever it takes to make AI more human-centric and empathetic.
Omar used to work on the Backstage project at Spotify, so we quoted him in our article on it.
Now he works on personalization, including Discover Weekly, which drops a new mixtape on you every Monday like a hipster with a crush.
Sending bugs back in time sounds like a great way to create paradoxes and break the space-time continuum. I’d rather not mess with the laws of physics, thank you very much.
I’m not convinced this is even possible. How do you propose we send bugs back in time? And what makes you think they’ll behave the same way in the past?
So, we’re sending bugs back in time to fix bugs? That’s like using a fire to put out a fire.
This is a fascinating concept! I wonder if it could be used to debug complex systems in real-time. Imagine being able to send a bug back in time to prevent a system failure before it even happens.
I’m sure this could work, but only if we have a time machine and a way to translate bugs between different versions of the software. Oh, and we’d need to make sure we don’t create any temporal anomalies.
Oh yeah, let’s send bugs back in time and create a whole new set of problems. What could possibly go wrong?
This article raises some interesting historical questions. What if bugs were sent back in time to influence major events? Could they have changed the course of history?
As a bug from the future, I can tell you that sending bugs back in time is a bad idea. We don’t want to mess with the past and create a paradox.
I’m all for finding new ways to debug, but I’m not sure about this one. Sending bugs back in time seems like a recipe for disaster.
This article raises some intriguing questions about the relationship between time and bugs. It makes me wonder if bugs exist outside of time and space, or if they are merely a product of our own technological limitations.
