Smalltalk got a lot right very early on that got adopted in bits by everyone eventually. The idea of a fully interactive IDE, designing systems as distributed objects that exchange messages, and so on. Unfortunately parceling it out and fud

I have a mobile calendar app where I can manage ALL my tasks and commitments at a glance and it can be used with a screen reader.

Scientific advancement IS the change in the understanding of humans. Your fallacy lies in pretending science can progress in an objectively defined space where saying 'progress twice as fast' even makes sense. But it does not. It

There hasn't been an improvement on software architecture state of the art since SmallTalk and Relational Databases. Everything else is either a rehash or a rebuttal that proves short lived and ends in a rehash.

Yeah an aristocrat greek being slave in Rome doesn't change his high social class status. It just means he worked for room and board for a while. Often as teacher and administrative leaders. Anything written by anyone before the XIX ce

Koine greek postdates Plato, Aristotle and Socrates by around 200 years.

Why would you want a 2D interface of a calendar replaced with a 1D interface of having to formulate language about it to look it up or edit it?

Anyone who claims that there's a 'cure for cancer' somewhere that some company is sitting on for profit betrays their complete lack of understanding of oncology.

The main idea, with Collapse OS at least, is to be able to build software with salvaged computer parts. The focus is on easy to repair chipsets, that could be maintained with access to simple tools. I hope that a decade or two down the line

Yeah nah. Current 'ai' is a nice useful tool for some very well scoped tasks. Organizing text data, providing boilerplate documents. But the back end is a hugely costly machine that is being hidden from view in hopes of drumming u

Yeah I am sure author has transcended such pedestrian things as versioning and testing code.

> truth is often a matter of perspective. This is nonsense. Truth is patently objective. Narratives fail to get at truth, but that doesn't change the nature of truth.

Author successfully drove engagement with psychological baits like bashing commonly accepted tools and practices and being intentionally obscure so a lot of people would comment about it.

Corporate capitalism in a nutshell... I should really get around to reading that tech feudalism book I keep hearing about. As a historian, sounds plausible.

'Job killer' is such a weird way to say 'exploitation blocker'.

Always a great signal people have no idea what they are talking about when one starts 'explaining' quantum weirdness using it.

Yeah statistical games with historical datasets on the verge of a new climate epoch threatening us with unprecedented weather events is a great way to be caught by surprise when we can least afford to.

Picture of the delivery is different than picture of your face.

Nowadays it's a good rule to not let delivery people photograph you anyway. Anything I order comes by mail and there's no such nonsense. Unsolicited whatever, lemme just take your pic? You can take it back thanks

> I'd still consider going through an older book, you'll learn 90-95% of the same thing. Seconded. I have the book, and it's pretty easy to understand where the differences are. And worth learning the pre 1.7 Phoenix becau

I'm of the opinion that nothing is ever simple. We live in a fascinatingly complex universe, and the closer you look the more information you can see packed inside everything. Simple is just a name we attach to domains of well understo

> That’ll show 'em. Don't make this about the vocabulary used. Positing climate related policy as something to do with "showing 'em up" (or in other words "owning 'em") is a super weird take.

There is no 'permanent record'. Most sane jurisdictions scrub minors' records on reaching adulthood.
