Talk Title: A Lot of Languages are Pretty Much the Same
Talk Description: Ok, maybe not all of them, and maybe not basically the same, but there are a lot of features in common! Let's explore them using General Language Syntax (GLS), a cute little experimental language that compiles a code description syntax into the equivalent language-specific code in C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, and TypeScript.
This talk will give an overview of how languages can seem the same on the surface but behave subtly differently on the inside.
