Hi all, Over the last 4 years, I too have stumbled upon "the untold story of oop", VPRI, and a number of other "untold" histories of software and efforts to make it more open-ended & human-oriented. I can tell you that FONC is not the only attempt at such a thing.
If I'm not the only one, maybe we can benefit from sharing what we've found (or collaborate on projects or ideas or resources), rather than just limiting to the COLA stuff. I myself have taken from many sources (like the ones listed below) to develop my own user-oriented software innovation Is anyone interested? Examples: Intentional Domain Workbench, Meta Programming System, Lively Kernel, https://youtu.be/1O8PwkXfDJg , (and the following are all on worrydream.com) The Humane Representation of Thought, Drawing Dynamic Visualizations, Learnable Programming Thanks, - Dan On Sat, Jul 29, 2017, 4:20 PM Eugene Wallingford <walli...@cs.uni.edu> wrote: > On Sat, Jul 29, 2017 at 02:39:08PM -0700, Yoshiki Ohshima wrote: > > There will be some more news in the near future, but I can tell you > > that many of us moved to a Lab called Communications Design Group and > > then to HARC at Y Combinator Research.
