Solid steel programming: blockchain and hardware programming

There are notable similarities between programming for hardware devices and programming for blockchain. Both operate within defined constraints and exhibit a deterministic nature. In hardware programming, one must work within the limitations of available energy and memory, acknowledging and adhering to these constraints. Similarly, blockchain programming faces constraints such as the upper gas limit, which restricts the number of computational steps that can be executed, with each step incurring a cost.
Solidity, the programming language for smart contracts on Ethereum, occupies a unique position within the realm of programming languages and technology. It blends the flexibility and expressiveness typical of Turing-complete languages, enabling the implementation of complex logic, with the robustness and rigidity characteristic of hardware programming. This amalgamation of flexibility during development and resilience in production gives rise to new kind of programming. Strange and interesting beast....
