Функциональный язык программирования Hobbes

Hobbes - это функциональный язык программирования со статической типизацией, написан на С++ и включает JIT-компилятор на базе LLVM. Похож на Haskell, но совсем не такой же революционный и гораздо менее известен. Я немного расскажу, что это за язык и как он устроен. Что ещё за Hobbes?

The frontispiece carries the quotation

“By Arts is formed that great Mechanical Man called a State, foremost of the Beasts of the Earth for Pride”

which is also from Hobbes: “For by art is created that great LEVIATHAN called a COMMONWEALTH, or STATE…”

Lieblingsmenschen

Mit welchen Leuten bist du am liebsten zusammen? Lieblingsmenschen sind solche, mit denen man gerne zusammen ist. Das ist #sozusagen zunächst die Binsenweisheit der heutigen Gedanken zum Tag. Photo by Andrea Piacquadio on Pexels.com Doch warum ist es so und was sind die Auswahlkriterien? Weshalb ändert sich die Zusammensetzung dieses Soziotops mit dem Lauf der Zeit? Das hat sehr viel damit zu tun, dass wir Menschen soziale Wesen sind und daher auf Interaktion aus sind. Diese […]

This video comment by @Daojoan shaped my dreams tonight, and even keeps me busy now:

Why Fallout is a philosophical.masterpiece
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHZLZHF1IXI

Summary:

The #Fallout television series presents itself as a video game adaptation, but buried beneath the retro-futurism and irradiated monsters is a rigorous philosophical thought experiment.

The show stages a 250-year-old debate between Thomas #Hobbes and John #Locke, gives both sides guns, and watches which worldview survives the apocalypse.

#Lucy McLean emerges from Vault 33 with the earnestness of someone who has never been betrayed.

She believes people are fundamentally decent when given structure, and that the surface world needs the right systems rebuilt.

Cooper Howard, now known as #TheGhoul, has watched 219 years of human behavior under conditions of absolute scarcity.

He has seen every variation of desperate people doing desperate things, and concluded that #altruism is a luxury good that evaporates when resources run low.

Trust is a #vulnerability and cooperation is a sucker's bet.

She embodies Locke's optimism and faith in natural reason.

He has internalized Hobbes's diagnosis while rejecting the proposed solution.

The wasteland becomes their laboratory.

The show's real thesis proves more nuanced than either philosopher anticipated.

Human nature bends toward #cooperation when conditions allow it, and snaps toward #violence when they don't.

Lucy's faith in systems was faith in #propaganda, built on lies she couldn't see from inside the vault.

The Ghoul's #cynicism came from watching those systems fail catastrophically, convincing him that failure was the default setting rather than an aberration.

The same people who would kill for water in the wasteland would share water in Vault 33.

*Change the conditions and you change the behavior.*

Neither Hobbes nor Locke captured the whole picture, which is precisely why we've been arguing for 250 years and why a TV show set in a hellscape can still find fresh ground in the question...

„Pluribus“ und die Einsamkeit der letzten Menschen: Über Gemeinschaft, Überleben und die Illusion von Freiheit

Meine Lieblingsserie der letzten Woche war eindeutig „Pluribus“ auf Apple TV. Wahrscheinlich auch weil das Szenario mich an einer meiner All-Time-Favorites Serien überhaupt erinnert: „Last Man on Earth“. Beide Serien spielen damit, dass ein Virus weite Teile der Menschheit […]

Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

Viele kennen zu Recht den #Leviathan von Thomas #Hobbes, in dem dieser einen totalitären #Staat beschrieb. Nur wenige kennen auch den #Behemoth von Franz #Neumann, der als 1er das #NS - Regime als totalitäre #Bewegung aus #Partei , #Wirtschaftselite , #Militär & #Ministerien beschrieb. Er belegte auch den obsessiven Erdöl - #Fossilismus von #Hitler & Gefolge.

In diesem Blogpost würdigt Michael Blume die wegweisenden, ökonomischen Analysen von Franz Neumann in dessen Hauptwerk "Behemoth".

Natur des Glaubens

A quotation from Thomas Hobbes

The Obligation of Subjects to the Soveraign, is understood to last as long, and no longer, than the power lasteth, by which he is able to protect them. For the right men have by Nature to protect themselves, when none else can protect them, can by no Covenant be relinquished. […] The end of Obedience is Protection; which, wheresoever a man seeth it, either in his own, or in anothers sword, Nature applyeth his obedience to it, and his endeavour to maintaine it.

Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) English philosopher
Leviathan, Part 2 “Of Common-wealth,” ch. 21 “Of the Liberty of Subjects” (1651)
