Supercompilation is a deep program transformation technique due to V. F. Turchin, a prominent computer scientist, cybernetician, physicist, and Soviet dissident. He described the concept as follows [^supercompiler-concept]:

A supercompiler is a program transformer of a certain type. The usual way of thinking about program transformation is in terms of some set of rules which preserve the functional meaning of the program, and a step-by-step application of these rules to the initial program. ... The concept of a supercompiler is a product of cybernetic thinking. A program is seen as a machine. To make sense of it, one must observe its operation. So a supercompiler does not transform the program by steps; it controls and observes (SUPERvises) the running of the machine that is represented by the program; let us call this machine M₁.

A Starting Point for using Emacs & Evil-mode

(I wrote a bit about why Emacs and Vim on my blog and thought it might be nice to give some starting point for people that want to try it.)

If you just want to play around with Emacs & Evil mode do the following:

1. mkdir ~/.emacs.d/
2. copy init.el into ~/.emacs.d/
3. Download Emacs from http://emacsformacosx.com
