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"

I found this problem in Scientific American in the 70's, and it's been one of my favourites since then. It is possible to solve it without even using pen and paper (I believe I did…

Great! Thanks a lot.

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.

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: htt…

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...

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/B…

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

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 M…

If your machine is running some Unix OS, then PicoLisp is what I would recommend. -> http://picolisp.com/

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 th…

I would have expected to find React ( http://facebook.github.io/react/ ) among the frameworks.

Unless you're stuck in Windows, I suggest you take a look at PicoLisp, a very rich and interesting development system. The Wiki is of course written in PicoLisp: http://picolisp.co…
