Interesting but vague. How do I see any of these actually in action? Do they work? Will they be released at some point or are they proof of concept work that will never see the light of day beyond an academic paper?

I kept trying to click on the titles, thinking I'd get to at least see a repo or something.

We're really happy that HN is interested in our work, but apart from Ohm and the Ohm Editor, most of the projects listed are in an early stage and are not yet ready for public release. It's too early to say which ones will become "real" in the way that Ohm has, but hopefully we can at least release them in some form, like we have the older projects linked at the bottom.

  Is it possible to contribute to YCR without being a permanent member? Not looking to be paid but I am working on related technologies and prefer to be connected to a cohesive group.

    I'm also interested in this -- I've been working on something similar in spirit to these and it would be really awesome if there was some way to share ideas and get feedback. Though I also understand that they probably want to work as deeply as possible on these things without the distraction of an open source/contributor community.

code release isn't always the most important. bret victor never released code to any of his prototypes, but the ideas conveyed in his interactive essays have inspired many hackers to come up with their own solutions, or to adapt his ideas into their systems. e.g., http://worrydream.com/LearnableProgramming/ http://worrydream.com/LearnableProgramming/ good ideas live a lot longer than code.

  I'm still inspired by that essay 6 years later.

  In this case it is actually released and you can run this tool, and it is actually pretty awesome: https://github.com/harc/ohm https://github.com/harc/ohm

This is just a visualizer ontop of the Ohm library. I have played around with it some and it is excellent: https://github.com/harc/ohm https://github.com/harc/ohm
