I explain the story from last episode.

The Curry-Howard isomorphism for the law of excluded middle, as a radio drama.  I first saw a version of this story performed by Phil Wadler and Frank Pfenning (wearing fake horns!) at RTA in Nara, Japan in 2005.  This is my take on it.  In a subsequ... more

I discuss a nice paper I quite enjoyed reading, called The Calculated Typer, by Garby, Bahr, and Hutton.  The authors take a very nice general look at the specification of a type checker, for a very simple expression language.  They then manually der... more

In this episode, I talk about the control operator callcc, and how it is implemented during compilation using continuation-passing style (CPS).  I sketch how CPS conversion (transforming a program with callcc into one in CPS that does not need callcc... more
