In this episode, Anil and Ron consider the evolving role of operating systems, security on the internet, and the pending arrival (at last!) of OCaml 5.0. They also discuss using Raspberry Pis to fight climate change; the programming inspiration found in British pubs and on Moroccan beaches; and the time Anil went to a party, got drunk, and woke up with a job working on the Mars Polar Lander.

What is new in OCaml 4.03? by Damien Doligez
Ty Overby is a programmer in Jane Street’s web platform group where he works on Bonsai, our OCaml library for building interactive browser-based UI. In this episode, Ty and Ron consider the functional approach to building user interfaces. They also discuss Ty’s programming roots in Neopets, what development features they crave on the web, the unfairly maligned CSS, and why Excel is “arguably the greatest programming language ever developed.” Some links to topics that came up in the discussion: Jane Street’s Bonsai library: https://opensource.janestreet.com/bonsai/ The 3D design system OpenSCAD: https://openscad.org/ Matt Keeter’s libfive design tools: https://libfive.com/ Try .NET in-browser repl: https://try.dot.net/ Jane Street’s Incr_dom library: https://opensource.janestreet.com/incr_dom/ The Elm Architecture “pattern for architecting interactive programs”: https://guide.elm-lang.org/architecture/ React JavaScript library: https://reactjs.org/ The Houdini proposal: https://houdini.glitch.me/ Svelte UI toolkit: https://svelte.dev/ You can find the transcript for this episode and all past episodes at signalsandthreads.com.
