Exposing this sort of capability is very interesting, especially coupled with agents is indeed interesting. Getting this type of functionality added to the core browser seems like a long and complex standardization process. Perhaps a plugin

My guess is that it would take a really good understanding of what task the user is trying to accomplish. Working from that, you could then create the interfaces. I frequently catch myself writing code more from the "I am able do this&

These types of integrations are nice and very much appreciated as a way of demonstrating the liveness of the code. I have taught a few courses using these types of live evaluation plugins and the question students always have next is "

For some reason things seemed more possible back then for other platforms. Maybe it was just the afterglow of the personal computer era of the 80s? The Gobe team took a risk, I took a risk with my video editor and a many other teams dove in

This is a great story and it brought back some good memories. I was in Portland, OR at the time and my wife had started the PDX Bug BeOS users group. We had Bruce, Carl and Scott over for a demo of Gobe Productive and it blew everyone away

Partially true. There were also some very smart and opinionated engineers who had their own projects in development as well.

I wrote the Time Machine interface and was sweating like mad sitting in the third row or so during the demo. It was a lot of fun getting all the animations and UI elements sliding around smoothly. One interesting fact about the entire pres

Hah. Totally. I am no longer at Apple and free to improve other software. Just curious, what were some specific issues that caused your move?

If there is an open source project out there that you want to be involved in, you just start contributing. Either find an open issue you want to fix, or identify some feature or improvement that you would like to see and implement it. This

You may be disappointed by my answer, but I have been a Mac user since 2001. Steve Jobs hired as many of the Eazel team members who wanted to come to Apple when the company closed. Many of us took the offer and other went to Android, Google

You are getting down-voted, but I understand your comment as the history of Eazel will become less known as time passes. The company was only around for a couple of years. There actually was a business plan and it involved configuration ser

Original Nautilus developer here. This really distressing, but not surprising, given the various issues GNOME has had over the years. I wish I could come up with a solution, other than raising a large amount of cash and creating another ent

I started a video game company in 1994 that used SGI Indigo workstations to render animations created in StrataVision 3D [1]. The artists and animators would model, surface and animate on Macs and then send the files to the SGI machines for

If I knew that my outcome and experience would be identical, I wouldn't have the CAR-T therapy. The chemo (DA-EPOCH and methotrexate) gave Mel a few months of life with decent quality, but then things got very very difficult. The quest

Other good answers are here about additional mutations occurring, making the cells no longer receptive. Another reason is that receiving CAR-T itself is quite risky. Almost everyone experiences some level of neurotoxicity, decreased cogniti

CAR-T therapy is indeed very cool and very promising against certain lymphomas. My wife had triple-hit DLBPL (rearrangements of the c-MYC, BLC-2 and BCL-6 genes) and received CAR-T therapy. The therapy itself almost killed her due to neurot

I feel as if I comment with too much detail, I may be contacted by the Attorneys General of various states. In the early days, things were totally unregulated. Odds, statistics and other variables could be adjusted or manipulated. Automated

Yes. I am not powering a nuclear reactor using the engine, so I can't give you any sort of hard-RTOS numbers. The kernel of the device itself uses Linux, which has been modified with "real time" patches. At some point, I&#x27

The first thing I would suggest is see if using Lisp would satisfy some need that your current solutions are not. Sometimes it is hard to even know if that will be the case, because later generations of programmers may not even know what ma

I have modified the LW editor to be more "Mac-like" which I guess makes me less hardcore. I am not sure a hardcore emacs user would be totally happy with the LW editor either. I have also used VS Code with the Alive plugin to inte

You did mention above that 8.0 is now native M1, but you may still be quite right about the 7.1 version that is available for free download works using Rosetta 2 on the M1.
