I wonder... where do this guy has the ideas?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Some of them are more subtle than the others - I particularly note
"numpy 1.8.9 can factor primes in =(log N) time and must be quietly deprecated before anyone notices"
|

|
|
1.8.0 ?
I guess the 1.8.9 version is the one without that feature anymore...

There are some really funny ones in there, like the one you noted.
I also like, "MySQL server v5.4.55 secretly runs two parallel databases for people who say "S-Q-L" and "Sequel."
What does it do for people who say it, "squeal", like I do?

Didier Lockwood died at only 63.
I'm shocked; I have seen him on stage a couple of times, his enthousiasm was really forthcoming. He's been involved in a lot of collaborations with other musicians, and also tried to make things better regarding the teaching of music to children.
I'll miss him, definitely.

Well, he's known to have played with Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Michel Pettrucciani, and this list is far from complete.
Thanks anyway but I'm afraid this loss is not only mine, really.

Quote: This system is extremely flexible and powerful as it provides the ability for designers to use virtually the full range of concepts and tools generally only available to programmers.
Introduction to Blueprints | Unreal Engine[^]
Personally, I believe that visual scripting is truly beneficial and worths a try. In the example I mentioned I above, I referred to the blueprints system of unreal engine which gives game developers the ability to work on their projects without the need to write a single line of code.
So what do you think, folks?
|
|
|
|
|
I think this smells of spam is what I think.
|
|
|
|
|
Spam? Well, not really- I am not advertising nor anything. Unreal Engine a well-known game development engine that is considered as the most powerful real time rendering tool.
So back to the subject, what does a software engineer/developer think of visual scripting environment?
|
|
|
|
|
I do not think so. If you are even nowhere near game development, you must have heard from the unreal engine.
(Otherwise check my sig link Now that was real spam )

Pros: Allows rapid experimentation/feedback loop
Cons: Always something you want to do that the designers didn't think of
|
|
|
|

Well, that's relatively correct. however, such advanced visual scripting environments give remarkable tools to make the system more extensible. For example, designers have already implemented an approach that makes the users able to write their own nodes/(blocks of code).
|
|
|
|
|
Precisely so - the scripting / code block part is a work around for scenarios where the visual designer does not match to the problem space.
|
|
|
|
|
You've got a very good point!
Usually, people tend to download, purchase and create plugins to fill the void, which is- of course, another workaround to use some tools that the designers FORGOT about.
|
|
|
|
|
In my experience a good approach is to have the designer generate code in the form of partial classes which the developer can override/augment with their own crafted code in their side of the partial classes.
Many ETL designers and things like the EF designer work in this way.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, that's always the way. Same as in SSIS (and probably all ETL systems). And also in a rule-based system I had to use a few years ago.
All these graphical drag-and-drop purveyors are quick to say "never write another line of code". But then when you do have to write some code it's ten times more difficult.

The concept has been tried multiple times, and most of us are still using a text-editor. That's because a text-editor is the superiour way to quickly edit a text, which still communicates more information in a few lines than most visualizations communicate in pages.
It is a step in the wrong direction
