I gave Bret the same feedback. My point was that if he could package up a smaller version of it (say with a pico projector and a simple webcam) then you could have a ton of creative efforts happen in parallel. There are a ton of use cases f

Create in English, Krit in Sanskrit, ecrit in French. Death is Mrit in Sanskrit, and morte in French. Is is astu in Sanskrit, Ast in Farsi (if I recall correctly).

And sometimes the legacy is just that the world is a better place thanks to their efforts, and has not much to do with having your name all over the place.

With this, could you not also use say balloons to get the rocket up till a particular point, and then switch to beamed power?

What is so special about the speed of light? As a thought experiment, if everyone on the planet was blind, would c have been replaced by the speed of sound?

Even for the app - if its a cost argument, then allow others to compete on a cost basis. Of course, apple will not let you set up your own app store with the same guarantees that apple provides around privacy security etc. If its a discover

It would work if you can sing out the phrase ;). Basically a real life version of a musical.

I think here you need to look at their main weakness, which is strong reliance on government contracts. If Trump loses the next election then there will be a major change that will likely adversely affect them. Peter Thiel is one of the fou

Actually, it seems that compilers is a domain that APL can potentially excel at.. https://github.com/Co-dfns/Co-dfns

Why not combine the methods? Use the BTC stuff to fund the stock stuff, and have different twitter accounts do different things. Biden's for BTC, and Musk's for stock market manipulation. Plus steal the DM's for sale on the d

IMHO, this would be a perfect application to build using Elixir and Phoenix LiveView. I think it would provide really robust realtime capabilities, and fits well with things like binary pattern matching that Elixir and Erlang handle well.

Very interesting. I believe that Bret Victor does the time part really well (visually) here: http://worrydream.com/MediaForThinkingTheUnthinkable/ (in demo 4). Also, Mesh apreadsheet is very interesting in this regard,

While I really like array programming languages in general, I think what is really an elegant balance of readability and conciseness is the nile language and its application to rasterization. Highly concise, yet very readable. See this Bret

I think its important to distinguish between something that is a core piece vs all the other things that make the system usable. For example once you start adding error handling, and good error reporting, the complexity goes up by an order

I'd also suggest looking at Pike's ivy as a simple example of an apl like system in go. https://github.com/robpike/ivy

It's definitely harder. I have been doing O'caml for about 20 years now, and we have probably one of the largest Elm apps out there. I looked at Purescript, especially because it also compiles to other languages (C++, BEAM) but th

You can solve around this by using cuckoo or robin hood hashing. See for example: https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/148064...

This would go very well with APL.

You can have higher ratios at the CXO and SVP level, and need lower ratios below director because at the higher level most people dont need as much day to day oversight.

Need to understand your domain better, but in many cases, the 250GB csv can be compressed down quite effectively using a columnar representation. And the columns can (potentially) be processed using simd/gpu based approaches to where a

The analogy does not hold because you still lose time, which is IMHO the most valuable commodity because it represents opportunity cost. In built into a lot of these discussions is a major assumption - that a startup is a "typical&quot
