Yes a very airbrushed tale of the history of UIs . I agree

A tale of two Teenagers was an interesting read for me

Thanks for letting me know… does it say why?

You can also try an in-browser code playground that I am building, a cross between Visual Basic 6 and Microsoft Access here: https://yazz.com/

I love this idea! Yes an app can be small and used by a few people! :)

Cool OS! Could it work for shop window displays?

I've seen some of Bryan Johnson's work... will keep an eye on it as he seems a lot like Tim Ferris where he experiments on his own health and shares the results!

Always tough to traverse content when it is a graph, I see this a lot in low code tools which give an impossible to traverse graph

Agree, retrocomputing is like lightsaber, a return to more elegant weapons of a bygone age!

I just read the paper "Being Stuck in Someone Else's Theory". I guess when you work for someone else you live in their world and get paid for it. But when you find a model of the world worth fighting for then you either join

When I read this I thought it was a different back end to git. Not such an absurd idea, I do with with my own low code tool. I store the commit history in IPFS using the IPFS content ID as the code identifier, with each commit pointing to t

Does this mean that Meta is going to build a whole set of nodes, and possibly a blockchain to implement their own app.net app network, where facebook, whatsapp, messaging, will just be apps on their own platform?

I remember taking a look at mdbtools and not using it... can't remember why now, but I'll take another look. Thanks!

This post about low code seems to be about companies using the wrong tool for the job. I would be interested to know which low code tools the blog author has actually used, and what they see as the viable alternatives are?

ColdFusion was a very influential language for me. I first encountered real world use of it in 2001 when I worked at TradingCars, a startup in the Netherlands. A guy could build in a few hours in Coldfusion a faster version of the same weba

Yes, it is extremely painful. Thanks for the link, that may come in useful. But in general, the reason that I didn't use the Access redistributable is because I am building a Low Code system that I want to be able to import the Access

I would prefer 2) and 3) but I think 1) will happen unfortunately

Brings back memories of a similar task I have with importing MS Access files (the MS Access file format is undocumented). I am trying to parse the MS Access files using NodeJS/Javascript. I last tried about 3 years ago and it was reall

I had heard of the Softlab IDE as a friend had worked with something from Softlab. Any screenshots of the IDE?

I predict that the next generation crypto wallet will come from large companies like JPMorgan, Lloyds Bank, HSBC, Microsoft, Apple, X, etc... they will make the crypto wallet look just like a normal app and provide security, insurance, etc

Haha, made me laugh out loud at how true this statement feels, even though it is probably not true: "If you don't enjoy programming, don't worry, it is not your fault. Thousands of people around the world work hard day and ni

I totally agree... the real question is how to reduce cognitive load. Try to get a system that can fit in your head, although I have totally failed to achieve this myself. But it is a goal!

i am working on such a thing myself at https://github.com/yazz/yazz . Also there are many other people trying to build something similar

I had to read this article a couple of times before I got it. I guess dependencies can make an app warm blooded, but Docker or containerization can also paper over some of these issues. However, whenever I choose libraries for a project I d
