If you are talking about the rectangle eventually inheriting its way to becoming a browser, that picture is from his article in Scientific American. Bret Victor hosts a public scan of it if you'd like to read the whole thing: worrydream.com/refs/Kay_198...

I'm also not sure what to make of the original statement in the article. 0.06% is actually huge: companies are sinking tens and hundreds of billions of dollars into AI. 0.06% of just $1bln is $600,000. What am I missing?

You might want to report the crashes in the discord ( discord.com/invite/PjH9z...). I have never had FilePilot crash, so, it's possible you have hit some things that aren't as common, and they might not know about it.

Anyway, that's all the Meow comments I can think of. I will post more when the Kickstarter is live. Until then, thanks everyone for reading!

It was heartwarming to have so many people seek out our booth at comic conventions and ask when Book 3 will be available. We even twice had people come dressed as characters from the series, which was the wildest thing I think I've ever experienced!

For an indie comic with no marketing, we have been really happy with how well Meow the Infinite has been received. We are now well into the thousands of books sold, and are actually a bit worried that our Book 3 Kickstarter will be artificially limited by our stock of Book 2!

Illustration-wise, there are a few dozen pages left to draw. We anticipate these will be finished around June, which is when the Kickstarter will go live.

Because Meow the Infinite is an intricate story where every scene needed to be carefully planned in advance, the bulk of the writing has been complete for years. A few final scenes that we wanted to iterate on were completed last year.

At ~350 pages, Book 3 is by far the largest book in the series. As with the previous books, there's a Kickstarter for the print run where you can order the book (and the two prior volumes, if you don't already have them). You can sign up for it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ann...

I don't think the scaling is inherently a problem, because most IDE parts are decouplable. The problem is that the CS methods that are taught don't scale, and the ones that do scale are eschewed. It's a problem of our own creation.

They contribute only in the sense that the bigger the program is, the more chances you have to make a mistake in how it's designed. It is not an intrinsic property of complexity.

This is all completely false. The Visual Studio IDE was plenty fast in version 6 and earlier. That version supported all of the things you're talking about (multiple languages, SCC, variable formatting, remote debugging, etc.) Modern IDEs are slow because of bad programming, period.

If your goal was to convince me that this platform was different because it wasn't about people randomly spouting their ideologically-warped takes all the time - such as in replies to threads that have nothing to do with politics - it went poorly.
