OS X's Summarize service, by sentence:
> Basically I argued in that talk — successfully at Stanford, so I think that was... something — that for just-in-time compilers, it's becoming pretty clear, they have a lot better access, a lot better data at runtime about how you're actually using your program right now than the compiler ever had.
By paragraph:
> Case in point? Regular expressions. (raise hand) Who likes to write their own giant deterministic finite automata to do string matching? Heh. It's weird — nobody raised their hand.
So, something about people not wanting to write their own compilers?
- Xichekolas 18y agoWhat I learned from your comment is that I should write my own 'summarizer service' that picks a random sentence from a document, calls it a summary, slap the phrase 'N-tier' on it, and sell it to Fortune 500 companies. At least both those sentences are somewhat important points he had, but most of the talk was about JVM languages and specifically Rhino.
