> I'm much more curious about a programming paradigm that no longer uses text to communicate with computers but instead just directly manipulating data I don't think there's any way to get away from this abstraction. At it's lowest level, everything is encoded in binary. All abstractions on top of binary are just interpretations of the underlying stream, text being a relatively simple encoding (ASCII table or UTF8's multi-byte structure). Structure data is similar, just multiple pieces packed into one contiguous space. You will always have to build on top of this fundamental, there is no simpler That being said, I quite like: * Datasette - https://datasette.io/ https://datasette.io/ - I have a feeling ou could connect a lot of these instances and truly make something interesting there * Lightable IDE - https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=H58-n7uldoU https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=H58-n7uldoU * I have at least 2 more but I can't find them in my favorites I'm trying to make my own as well. Hardest thing is giving myself enough time to do it, but I'm currently starting to structure my life around it.
