I had a "rocket" crystal radio like this in the 60s: http://www.esnarf.com/7395k.htm

I can recommend this book by Guy Deutscher: "Through the Language Glass: Why the World Looks Different in Other Languages"

Great! Thanks a lot.
jkleiser | 4 years ago | on: Solidjs – JavaScript UI Library
When I go to https://markojs.com in Safari (14.1.2), the CPU load on my MacBook Air goes up above 100%. If I use the Brave browser, the CPU load is closer to 25%. Still too much.

Interesting. I'm just wondering why the color green has not been discussed in more detail in this text.

AppRun (https://apprun.js.org) is a very nice JavaScript library for building reliable, high-performance web applications, including SPAs.
jkleiser | 6 years ago | on: Things I wish I knew about state management when I started writing React apps
Great article! I have only done a few simple projects with React, except for one where we used Redux. For me, Redux is too much clutter. I can recommend a look at this article: https://medium.com/@yiyisun/redux-vs-the-react-context-api-v...
I've been working on an AppRun based hobby project for a couple of months now, and I find state management there to be quite easy. No clutter!

If you have a Mac and want to play with Oberon Workstation, you can find it in the Mac App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/oberon-workstation/id1057155...

Impressive! However, no mention of Oberon or BlackBox; that's a serious omission.

Thanks for the links!

What a great surprise! I look forward to re-learn this system and language. I'm glad Oberon isn't dead. I just discovered this http://oberon.vishap.am and this https://github.com/BlackBoxCenter/blackbox.

Very cool! However, the "zydeco" sample wasn't typical zydeco at all. I guess it was Wayne Toups, and I'm sure he can do some real groovy zydeco, but this wasn't. ;-)

I like it, but I would prefer a plain oscilloscope function, and being able to connect it to a Web Audio source of mine.

Introducing Eventism or Eventsim?

If you really want to do some serious concatenative programming, this is probably a useful site: http://www.factorcode.org
jkleiser | 11 years ago | on: Oberon/F for Mac OS (1997)
If you have access to MS Windows, you can find the latest version here: http://www.oberon.ch/blackbox.html
A very beautiful piece of software in my opinion (but not available for Mac OS X).

If your machine is running some Unix OS, then PicoLisp is what I would recommend. -> http://picolisp.com/
jkleiser | 11 years ago | on: React Components
Very nice! I think it would be great if the clickable component names on the right could have some kind of tooltip that contained a brief description of the component.
E.g.: For the react-messages it could be "React component for showing error, warning, info messages."
jkleiser | 12 years ago | on: JavaScript: The Right Way
I would have expected to find React (http://facebook.github.io/react/) among the frameworks.
