Marianne Bellotti wants to understand how the people who design programming languages do what they do, so she's jumping right in and giving it a shot by writing her own language. Follow along as she struggles to understand parsers, lexers, grammars, gets philosophical about the nature of error handling and gets in way over her head too easily and too often.

I love it. Marianne’s journey into understanding and writing her own programming language dives deep into a lot of interesting subjects that intersect, a few early ones mentioned are first order logic, ‘what *is* grammar?’ and what design decisions do or can go into developing a new language. I can’t idly listen to this podcast, I need to be able to focus as I try to keep up with the abstract concepts they discuss and I couldn’t be happier. *Highly* recommended and can’t wait to hear more!
