====== PL/LOLCODE ====== I've mentioned Josh "Eggyknap" Tolley's adventures with LOLCODE in PostgreSQL before, but never really gave him the spotlight. About a week ago, he presented his work at [[http://postgresqlconference.org/west08/|PostgreSQL Conference: West]] about a week ago. LOLCODE once again proves its worth as a "HAI WORLD" language for language implementors, as Josh's 90-minute presentation was a tutorial on how to implement a procedural language for PostgreSQL. The entertaining and informative slides are [[http://eggyknap.blogspot.com/2008/10/pllolcode-howto.html|here]], and there's a bonus program listing telling you [[http://eggyknap.blogspot.com/2008/10/calculating-pi-in-lolcode.html|how to calculate pi]]. Thanks, Josh, and congrats on a job well done! In other news, I've had to turn off new user registrations in the [[http://forum.lolcode.com/|forum]].
