Thinking Together

📝 Students who grew up with search engines might change STEM education forever via Nick Fox-Gieg

🧵 conversation

So a few months ago I was posting here about teaching coding in the same university art dept. ten years apart, and finding that the institutional memory of how we did it vanished in the interim. Now I've put together a new intro course and I've encountered a fascinating new curveball from the Class of ~2024: profound lack of familiarity with desktop UI conventions.

🏸 Quick question: Do data scientists use inferential statistics such as t-tests, ANOVAs (and related stats like p-values and confidence intervals)? If so, is this done to compliment ML approaches? I’d love to hear some examples.

A social scientist is usually concerned with explanation rather than prediction. The opposite seems to be true for data scientists. I’m curious how much overlap there might be from a data scientists perspective.

re symbolic execution in ruby, i'll put that in a thread

Yet another approach to editing s-expressions visually, originally designed with mobile in mind but potentially interesting for teaching.

🧰 Advanced Analysis for Faster Application Modernization via Alex Bit

🧵 conversation

hi friends. do you use any tool for modularizing/untangling/refactoring the architecture of the code for your big old applications (especially heavy web apps or mobile apps for performance gains)? I recently learned about CAST Imaging, and came across this video

Have we discussed before this approach by Mel Conway (of Conway's Law fame) to end-user programming?

🐦 Mel Conway: An Application Development/Execution Platform for the Rest of Us

This is about engaging almost everybody in the process of building real-world applications. It develops the rationale for, and will end with, a product concept. 0:1/2

📝 Frontend-only Multi-Player. Unlimited Bandwidth. Or: What is Croquet.io, really? via Jack Rusher

🧵 conversation

Croquet (formerly a research project that included Alan Kay) has been ported to JS and turned into a startup to facilitate "no server" multi-user applications

📗 Tools For Thought by Howard Rheingold via Florian Schulz

🧵 conversation

📕 I was looking for the book “Tools for thought” by Howard Rheingold but the shipping time to Switzerland was many weeks. I was then surprised to find the original version on the author’s website

anyone got any good resources on diff-ing of not-text? comparing what has changed since the last time you looked or what is different between what you're about to publish vs what has already been published in a node/wire system or other such 2D, visual heavy interface paradigm?

🖱️ Workshop on Live Programming (LIVE) via Shalabh

🧵 conversation

The LIVE 2021 (Workshop on Live Programming) lineup looks great: http://liveprog.org/

Includes our very own Mariano Guerra. There's a talk on "Smalltalk and Hypercard", another one called "Inkbase" from @Szymon Kaliski, "Joker" by Geoffrey Litt... in fact all these talks look great so it's hard to highlight just a few. Last year they published the videos. Not sure if it is the same this year.

🎹 Get started making sounds via Florian Schulz

🧵 conversation

Not directly related to programming, but I love these playful interactives on the Ableton website that teaches how to play a Synth (2019)

It’s really fun because the interactions are simplified to the use of mouse buttons and gestures. Within each interactive, they are mapped to different parameters, often controlling multiple at a time and the visual feedback is so clear. Doesn’t feel like doing heavy work compared to using the actual tool.
