We explore a novel approach to enhancing voice-operated personal assistants by integrating a lightweight text processing language, TEA, into our existing Question-Answer Knowledge Bases (QAKBs). This allows for dynamic, context-aware responses and multi-turn interactions, paving the way for smarter and more adaptable AI assistants. I invite you to read the abstract paper and share your thoughts! Also, looking forward to getting some support or a research grant to help further work we started years ago finally bringing together the VOSA and TEA language projects!
And thus we've adventured towards the new year of 2025.. through thick and thin, across terrain and hurdles of many kinds. Greetings to you that's been with us along this journey. Let's hope for and look forward to an even more productive, more impactful year ahead.

❝2024 has been a Year of Hard Work, 2025 We Hope to Harvest Fruits of that work, and 2026 A Start of Whole New Future for UGANDA and UGANDANs everywhere. Greetings from IP, to all netizens and citizens across all platforms, levels, communities and jurisdictions. HAPPY New Year to U!❞ --- Joseph L. Willrich Cwa Mukama R.W. on behalf of UGANDA's core Internet Community (UIC).
Alright, as we must indeed eventually earn our PhD and other doctorate honours, it is surely time to move on with our SLEing... πŸ‘‡πŸ»πŸ‘‡πŸ»

With a somewhat long list of co-authors, the "Trellis paper" [3] (not to be confused with "Tetris" the game) is among the most exciting SLE papers I've come across thus far. Published this year and surprisingly spearheaded by a PhD student; Lars Hummelgren…
It is early 2025 and we continue our review of ACM SLE papers in a streak that kicked off in 2024. Today I came across the first SLE paper specifically about Python, the programming language we all love and one of the most popular today. Paper is written by Aamir Farooq and a very credentialed SLE authority, [Assoc.] Prof. Vadim Zaytsev.

---[Brief Bio]:

Since 2021, Aamir Farooq is a Computer Science graduate student specialising in Software Engineering, at the Technical University of Denmark [1] though the paper cites his undergraduate affiliation at University of Twente in Netherlands [2]. Professionally he is a software designer and engineer [1].

Prof. Vadim Zaytsev is a true authority [3] in the SLE field, with numerous notable contributions across the field including having been an Editor in Chief of the SLEBoK[4] among many other things. He is an Associate Professor at the University of Twente in the Netherlands[5]. He is affiliated with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, and Computer Science (EEMCS), specifically within the Computer Science department[6]. His research focuses on Software Language Engineering, Domain-Specific Languages, Grammarware, and Automation[7].

Prof. Zaytsev has a strong academic background with a PhD in Recovery, Convergence, and Documentation of Languages from the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam[8]. He has published extensively in the field and has an h-index of 63, indicating a significant impact in his research area[5].

---[About Paper]:

The paper is modest in size, but treats of the important matter of idioms and traditions in the Python programming language[2]. It builds upon and furthers the only earlier work on the subject for Python by Alexandru et al (2018), though it also reviews general coding traditions as covered in the Software Engineering literature since 1987[2]. It highlights why code is deemed to be idiomatic and/or pythonic, as well as why this is important. It is a great resource for those who wish to [re]write better Python codebases especially since Python 3.

First, to mark the great progress we've attained with our original research concerning SLE and the TEA programming language made in Uganda, here's an interesting take on JWL's ideas of so-called "Computational Mysticism". In this example we see how the powerful TEA language (that can both be understood by humans as well as computers/machines) can be used to express a spiritual concept; in this example, a Prayer of Gratitude written as a computer program.

HAPPY Heliosday Deciphering, Decoding or Running that TEA program! πŸ€­πŸ€žπŸ˜†πŸ€£

❝In Brief, I am determined to become the President of Uganda, though, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in 2026, if God gives it to me. So, offer me your support, but also join me in this honourable calling.❞

JWL presenting VOSA with TEA macro-programs Proposal (8 JAN 2025)
Joseph W. Lutalo C.M.R.W.
Here is a formal reading of that VOSA with TEA #research #proposal. The idea is to attract support, collaboration and funding to see this work advance to where it should.. for the collective, greater good and constructive progress of Uganda, the International ICT ecosystem and Science theory and practical methods.
