A specific example. Slangify: The Case for DSLs in LLM Workflows.

https://rakujourney.wordpress.com/2026/06/08/slangify-the-ca...


I've been working on DML, a Prolog-based DSL [0] used to define and orchestrate agents and LLM workflows. It's been quite fun, although - given the amazing capabilities of SOTA models - I am not so sure anymore how meaningful it will be to continue with this work. Anyways, the language and also supports DCGs, so it should allow for plenty of interesting ways to combine grammars, LLMs, agents etc.

Perhaps the research documented in "Combining Constraint Programming Reasoning with Large Language Model Predictions"[0] can provide meaning and/or options to your work.

I hope so, because the idea of Prolog leveraging language model offerings is very compelling.

Thank you! This looks very interesting!

glad you mention https://slangify.org … we are pulling together a set of tooling and example DSLs to make this kind of LLM-DSL combination super easy


The need to tap a bunch of discredited UK "scientists" to get the anti-mRNA perspective on the testimonies, should perhaps be an indicator that this viewpoint is not really credible (they couldn't find enough reputable doctors inside of the US willing to testify the same thing).

Incidentally here's a really nicely written counter to many of the claims Malhotra has made:

> Equally, evidence that mRNA vaccines cause cancer is simply untrue. This sentence, for example “The millions of molecules of mRNA entering the cell is creating biochemical havoc, is disrupting protein metabolism, is interfering with tumour suppressor genes” is meaningless pseudoscience. There is no credible evidence that these vaccines disrupt tumour suppressors or drive any kind of process (biochemical or otherwise) that results in cancer. It is particularly crass to try to link this pseudoscience to the unfortunate incidents of cancer in the royal family and is reminiscent of the ‘died suddenly’ trope which attempted (and ultimately failed) to link the death of any young person to their vaccination status. This kind of outlandish conspiracy theory only serves to undermine the credibility of those spreading it.

(the sentences being cited are from a different source but it's the same kind of story he tells in this testimony)


I think you meant mRNA gene therapy. And despite the many issues with mRNA technology, the linked page specifically mentions covid-19 mRNA injections, which contains instructions for spike protein which causes inflammation which causes or is implicated in many diseases including cancers. Yeah won’t find many doctors stocking their necks out and funding for those type of studies don’t get well funded by the pharmaceutical companies/industry that make those products.

> I think you meant mRNA gene therapy

No, because framing the COVID vaccine as ‘gene therapy’ is pseudoscientific scare-tactic nonsense. I recommend reading the testimony from the American oncology society, as it explains how RNA works.


Don't forget about 5G.

And an unexpected transient load or heat flux can easily exceed material limits, or materials can have flaws. The ability to qualify the materials, components and processes for aerospace use is an achievement in itself.


Not only costing money. Constant AI scraping constitutes a denial-of-service attack that has brought down websites.


When war psychosis is not enough....


Kurt Vonnegut and Charles Bukowski are good examples.


And of course Faulkner (The Sound and the Fury) and McCarthy (Suttree).

I'm not a big fan of William (he definitely has place in history), but Cormac is best fiction author alive in my lifetime (Steinbeck is best of 20th Century).

The above are all my opinions.


Hah, github can have my crap code. Anyone trained on it will be in for a world of hurt :-)


Can’t wait for copilot to start saying stuff like

// todo… remove this before it goes to prod lol


Japanese eat fermented foods and have a long life expectancy.


And the highest rates of stomach cancer in the world (but maybe from fish parasites)


Plus, I don't think Japanese eat a lot more fermented foods than other cultures. It's way more prevalent in South Korea, China, Russia, etc.


Isn’t H pylori the main driver for stomach cancer?


And alcohol consumption rates


That's a fermented food too!


FWIW, here's a simple command line utility for joining and trimming the multiple video files produced by a video camera.
