Got some kind of links to "what Rich Hickey is saying" (who?) and "Bret Victor is doing" (who?) for us mere mortals? ;)
- bachback 13y agoclojure.org and worrydream.com. Rich has talks on youtube and Bret on vimeo (accessible via his website). What I mean is that if one thinks in widgets and DOM this is already tied to a particular way of thinking about computing. For instance d3.js and others manipulate the DOM, so that you have more or less a scripting of static content. There is real power in combining user interaction and scripting making it a two-way channel. My instant reaction to this talk is they really took the whole to an extreme, where the absurdity should become obvious. The next big thing is not going to come from Google (obviously). Perhaps I'm just ignorant.
