  1. Except in the very short term, I prefer typing to handwriting. Typing can always be edited while handwriting is just there.

  2. I suspect the just minted coder does a lot of hard coding whereas a more experienced coder juggles pieces of code in an app labyrinth of code design. How does that apply to language designers?

  3. Except at the very beginning of the podcast, I don't think the fisherman viewer got much out of the podcast. I, however, found your guest comments fascinating.

  4. Python 3.11 is Software 1.0: perhaps Python 4.0 would be designed to work with neural networks - Software 2.0.

  5. Ah, I was wrong. Python 3.11 is in machine learning. Why no comment about Software 2.0?

  6. The TV series 'Timeless' mimics the last 5 mins of this podcast. The evolution of memes by progeny. In the series case: the re-spanning of how to build a time machine.

  7. I've never liked MS: especially the underhanded way they treat OpenOffice. They luv to crush competitive software. Any Open Source comments are a smokescreen.

  8. I lost my slide rule decades ago. I don't miss it even tho it was important to have one in Boston Latin school.

  9. A good place for a freshly minted coder is work in a game studio interested in creating simulation games.
