What could be next big thing? Well, I see one easy example - live AI translation (translator will be AI in datacenter), now is manual, but this technology is very close to become real in just nearest years.

I've already checked, and seen two similar capital investment waves: railroads/steam machines in ~ 1890th (and it was even much larger - some sources calculated spending at 6% of GDP) and telecom infrastructure (somewhere 1960s..1

Thank you! I will definitely add this movie into my queue. Unfortunately have missed it when released.

This is eternal struggle. - Hardware developers will constantly scale horizontally and make less (time) deterministic hardware, because wall of memory, and scientists could constantly develop new ways to make calculations deterministic. So,

Well, I'll try summarize answers and my experience. At beginning, Internet used network classes, because of hardware limitations (later switched to address blocks). And even in 1990s still existed very old hardware, only could use clas

Ok, I'll say more strict - I talking about GAMEDEV, not about abstract things. And in GD, code have much less importance than in other fields. As example, I once meet amateur of RC-planes, and looking on his setup I asked, why his elec

From second view, looks like good way using ECMA-6 (for example) with Babel and some things added into browser debugger. So, technically, high-level ECMA-6 language transpiled (more traditional word translated) to ordinary Javascript, and s

As I understand, you mean, fp approach is comfortable to work with large codebase. But in GD this is not the case, and even not was case at past. Why so, because, at digital games dawn, hardware was too limited, just hardware limitations pr

This is interest assumption, but let's think, who are building large applications? I've taken part at some large apps built inside one company in extremely short time. And no, in my list only more or less adequate platforms - Perl

Thank you! For Closure, I just confused it with Elixir. Unfortunately, I see very familiar things from Perl world - many people made really interest things alone, but for some reason, they don't organize to make one direction really on

Looked carefully on graphs, and don't see reasons for worry. All looks like recession, where measured changes within measurement error (~2..3 percents very usual for such things). Even very much looks like typical market without much g

So I must assume your answer as "thank you for your view, I just see other"? I just don't see thank you. Formally your answers are not hateful, but you may say thanks for info I provided, as I see you was not aware before.

I have yesterday tried to read docs (sure, find by google :) ), and there stated "Text after a blank line that is indented by two or more spaces is reproduced verbatim. (This is intended for code.)". - Tried, and it really work.

Well, I'll believe you about fp debugger, so only problem left with OcaML and Clojure, each of them have GC with non-linear complexity (Clojure as I understand using BEAM GC which claimed soft-realtime, meaning 90% of GC work will look

I stated exactly - MICROCOMPUTERS are stateful and imperative just because marketing dictated them, but multi-chip CPUs are not always imperative. Other conclusion, looks like you are hater, minusing my comments just because you don't

Lisp really counter-example, because they have read-ahead (superscalar), specialized data types and hardware GC support. Read-ahead (superscalar) becomes typical from Pentium and similar class CPUs; even specialized data types gaining some

Why not use some simpler, like old good UNIX Make? Or for business logic existing for a long time Lua, which is much easier to learn/use than Clojure. I love functional paradigm, but sometimes fp lovers, looks like evangelists of Block

BTW I have an idea - for gamedev could be beneficial to make some VM engine (multiplatform), for example like BEAM, why not, but probably something much faster (like LLVM), but including rich library of structures and algorithms for structu

I don't know such way now. From what I see, looking promising, to discontinue UNIX systems (based on C, and yes, Windows is also favor of UNIX, as NT was made directly on foundations of VMS from Digital), and switch to something more h

Always, when read about "functional language usage in simulation", I check if OpenGL binding used. Other important things are physics engine and collision engine, because these are more than 90% of all code. Unfortunately, just as

As I could see, classic methods (used in children teaching) could create at least magnitude more data than we have now, just paraphrasing text (classic NLP), but depends on language (I'll try explain). Text really have lot of degrees o

Really interest view! And must say, "DOS like interface", I think too kind, as really current LLM interface, more like teletype :))))
