To me, this reads as an admission that software complexity leads to lower determinacy and lower systemic coherence. That bottom up design is dead, at least with regards to the industry they are preparing people for. I still think that SICP teaches sound thinking, as do compositional agglomerative syncretic approaches, even if you never do write any systems in forth.
- superduperycomb 5y agoWould you kindly briefly define “compositional agglomerative syncretic approaches”?
- admash 5y agoI suspect he would define it as anything the untrained eye would find syntactically indistinguishable from Forth.
