I haven‘t used it myself, though

There’s a lot of weird stuff in the C++ version that only really makes sense when you remember that this was made in flash first, and directly ported, warts and all. For example, maybe my worst programming habit is declaring temporary variables like i, j and k as members of each class, so that I didn’t have to declare them inside functions (which is annoying to do in flash for boring reasons). This led to some nasty and difficult to track down bugs, to say the least. In entity collision in particular, several functions will share the same i variable. Infinite loops are possible.

This sounds so bad, and confirms my prejudice that gaming code is terrible.

If not, I'm not sure this brings more to the table than simple configuration changes that are rolled out through your next deployment, which should be frequent anyway, assuming you have continuous delivery.

After all, that's what Artificial General Intelligence would at least in part be about: finding and proving new math theorems, creating new poetry, making new scientific discoveries, etc.

There is even a new challenge that's been proposed: https://arcprize.org/blog/launch

> It makes sense that the process of thinking and the process of translating those thoughts into and out of language would be distinct

Yes, indeed. And LLMs seem to be very good at _simulating_ the translation of thought into language. They don't actually do it, at least not like humans do.

Moreover, for many libraries there are types- libraries that add types to their interface, and more and more libraries have types to begin with.

Anyway just wanted to share that for me at least it's in practice not so bad as you make it sound if you follow some good processes.

I tried it out, and just first feedback:

- I often use the "Home" and "End" key to go the start/end of the line when I'm editing a cell. It scrolls to start/end of the whole spreadsheet, however. Since I'm not a spreadsheet user, I'm not sure if that's expected.

- The handlers like "on_dropdown_change" should receive an argument for the cell it's coming from, so you can e.g. change the cell that's next to it. Or how else is this supposed to be done?

It's quite cool :-) I suppose one problem could be integration with existing Google Sheets / Excel sheets?

In the world of programming (and I guess elsewhere, too), there are simply many more aspects at play when "choosing" the programming language than purely how good the language itself is. Easiest example is Javascript were it's simply widespread because it was the only language available in the browser. I recommend again that you watch the video :-).
