I muse on a concept I’ve been thinking about for a long time: that software engineering is trapped within the confines of the fixed-width text editing paradigm. This was motivated by a discussion with Orta about his Shiki Twoslash project but it’s been rattling around in here for years.
I also talk about Pharo, the Lindisfarne Gospels, Code Bubbles, Scratch, RStudio and more!
