I think if you replace "rectangle" with "right-angle triangles", it would help immensely.

- Crito 13y agoI'm still not sure I get it. Maybe 'triangles are more complex, but allow more complex results, like programming languages are more complex than other input languages humans use (like shortcut/mouse-action languages used in GUI programs like Photoshop), but programming languages allow more complex results'? In other words, triangle building block languages are the building-block equivalent of Turing equivalence?
- freudien 13y agoI think the basic premise is: Programming languages are the building blocks for all tools. When faced with a broken/useless tool, knowing how to build a new one is useful.
