"To find early versions of Arial, the Dinamo team had to work with computer technology archivists to get access to some of the first personal computers and operating systems. In the end they found a tool that allowed them to boot up Windows 2000 on their own laptops"
I hope this "technology archivist" charged them appropriately for this monumental task. /s
Agreed. This is the first resource that I've come across that so succinctly encompasses the language. Well worth the read to any dev looking to evaluate the language.
Of course the (good) problem with C# is that it's moving so fast, articles like these can quickly become out of date.
I recently picked up the G915 and share the same frustrations. And it's too bad too because the keyboard itself is the best-feeling, lowest wrong-key-pressed keyboard I've ever used.
I'm desperately looking for the same keyboard without the G keys.
Every tool that I use that doesn't have AI embedded just feels clunky. Any repetitive or predictive task that I have to do should have the option of being automated.
I love how excited the author is about this post. It sounds like some promising discoveries are in the works.
Of course I have no idea what any of this means. Maybe somebody could share a layman's explanation? What would be the benefit of "hold a free electron in the middle of that cube"?
Agree 100%. I actually tried to go without a numpad on a new keyboard. Couldn't make it a week before I returned it. Up to that point I didn't realize how much I used it on a daily basis.
I can't help but think how inefficient a programmer would be using the standard number keys. Reminds me of my dad hunting and pecking with his index finger.
My first thought upon reading this: what if DALL-E (or a similar AI) uncovers some kind of hidden universal language that is somehow more "optimal" than any existing language?
i.e. anything can be completely described in a more succinct manner than any current spoken language.
Or maybe some kind of universal language that naturally occurs and any semi-intelligence life can understand it.
If this interests you, you'll love the CRPG Addict [0]. The guy is well on his way through his mission to play, and document, every CRPG ever made. Always a fun read.
