    Episode 191 - The BHP Virus
    11 Oct 2026

    I bet you can't make a virus for a home computer. That challenge was the start of an interesting saga. It would end with an honest to goodness computer virus spreading among Commodore 64 users. That virus may have made it as far as America and Turkey. It at least infected the offices of a computer magazine.

actually works better than }

It isn't old but just not C-like. Also I use Ada for embedded and desktop and intend to include it in Flutter. Some may want very simple languages and in that sense I agree but Ada could do it all. I disagree with niche languages being anything but languages having faults. The extra effort of learning multiple string types and packages is easier than learning and keeping polished on multiple languages.

Very well researched on Ada
