I've typically found PL related articles do much better on Hacker News than Reddit, I think perhaps because of differing (but overlapping) target audiences. Always found it interesting what articles work here but not on Reddit (the converse isn't as interesting...)

the Wake language was on here a few days ago, in the form of an article titled: The Rewards of Creating a Programming Language.

Good memory!
Yeah, I had posted that to Reddit, where it didn't do too well, but someone posted it here where (for some reason!) it did much better.
Figured in addition to the story of creating Wake, I'd post the home page so people could look into it more!
