Yeah but it turns so niche you write visual 3D interfaces in Unity for your specific application. Terminal editor improvements are visual programming.work iterm2 I can see command history and dig into problems.

There’s a huge advantage to see programming for non programmers. Do you know how hard it is to explain hypervisors, VMMs and OverlayFS to non programmers? I gave them a simple example they need to make a simple text update to a Photoshop file. It costs a renewed font license for the latest but essentially an application library they can open the legal version they bought on windows see it look sort of okay looking on osx make changes to the file and be done with it.

One thing ChatGPT taught me was people don’t understand code. SQL was supposed to be ChatGPT of the day. Executives had no concept the “power” of essentially an NLP on top of structured data.

And for developers a high level AutoCad like view of what’s talking to what, etc. is valuable. I don’t need to visualize a merge sort but maybe a realistic abstract demo non programmers and programmers can work against.

I got tired of corrupt paste programmers mocking up design in Figma. I want to show you acquired Product X on SAP and it’s a different version. Using token data I want to be like as of right now you see realistic data and users, zoom in, show it merge in a datalake and produce an auditable report.

And that it runs strategies so algorithms (probably AI) can show aggregated date and where things might be failing. Zoom out see two icons from two company’s on different software and a generic data lake, zoom in and see and update data. See a message in Skack/email/etc. indicating whatever. Show elementary that consultant leads products like Twilio run off AWS and telemetry shows they don’t use but one feature and we can swap it out. All ok a running system without awkwardly switching windows. It helps executives get the big picture,’itnactualu works and you drill down enough you see type forwarding and an IDL for the programmers.

When was the last time you used merge sort not in std library or visualization would have helped you solve it? And yes I’m not talking just about corporate software.

Just the other day I was wanting to show an overlayfs/squashfs. I mean I’ll go down to C or god help me ASM so it’s not technical ability. It’s usually not even big vs little indian that trips people up but the big picture.

I wish so bad things like Salesforce would release their code, it is very rare someone would “steal” it and companies I know would benefit greatly and still pay full cost if I could rip out things and see their documentation is wrong and not have to go to COBOL or disassemble to me that’s visual programming. “INT32 actually a mutable type oh yeah they also made up their own types. That’s in red. In fact here’s a point map of all types that don’t match specs. First question why (in 1994 a driver didn’t work right so we did some weird type forwarding) ok… but in huge systems I’m not sure visual programming would help. Maybe weird things like btree in rust is better until you make an roc call outside of rust for some reason?
