Code_swarm: An experiment in organic software visualization

  This shows the dedication to projects and what it takes to make a language. Guido was pretty much alone for 5+ years early on in Python with Jack of MacPython downstream until at least '95 '96. Guido put in 5+ years not even knowing where Python would go just that it needed to be. https://vimeo.com/1093745 https://vimeo.com/1093745

    Interesting. I wonder with github today projects gain contributors significantly earlier, since doing a PR on github is soo much easier than contributing to a project in the days before github.

  This is from the UCDavis vidi lab [1]. It is a group of software engineers and researchers who work on scientific visualizations like op. 1. http://vidi.cs.ucdavis.edu/ http://vidi.cs.ucdavis.edu/

    I highly recommend gource. Since it's at least somewhat maintained (last commit was 9 months ago) where codeswarm hasn't been touched in 6 years...
