no python lib?

Marshall and Eric McLuhan worked on Laws of Media. See Lost Tetrads of Marshall McLuhan. Also check history of "We shape our tools and thereafter they shape us." Churchill plays a part.

great presentation and presenter

Newbie question: isn't it deterministic though in the sense that if you execute the same prolog program multiple times, it will always return you the same answers in the same order?

Relating to the last question/comment in the video, i would argue we are not actually creating code from a diagram. Mermaid defines a kind of a DSL for diagrams, so we are transforming code from one language to another, just like any other DSL. Having said that, the final code probably needs a lot more detail on the 'how', which Mermaid cannot express. I also believe the most important and useful use case is to generate diagrams from code, which helps to understand the system.

Nice talk! I agree that the robustness principle caused much damage to the web ecosystem. Same for unique XML attributes. Minor correction at 31:55 : REST is not a protocol.

This is an excellent and undervalued talk. Thank you Maggie for your consistently inspired and inspiring work.

I see. So much nothing has happened in 50 years. When Turbo Prolog came out in 1983, first question was why are not all numbers and their relations already builtin. You can make list of integers, and operate within that domain, but infinity would solve all the world's problems. One day soon a quantum computer will go to infinity and come back with an answer in finite time.

By "pre-digital" do you mean before people had fingers? "Digital" itself is named after the original digits, the fingers, which would in this language also be classified as "pre-digital". Maybe you mean pre-electronic.

Du hast frei gesprochen, die Folien waren gut formatiert. Die Beispiele waren verständlich. Es wurden keine Null-Values verwendet (nice, gg). Du hast mit den Zuhörern interagiert. Die Auflösung war ebenfalls große Klasse. Insgesamt hat mir das Referat sehr gut gefallen. 1+ mit Sternchen.

Well done Gunter!!

Are familiar with the work of Christopher Alexander who created A Pattern Language a book on participatory design? Might be interesting

@27:10 'what next' you ask Michael? I'm guessing you've stepped back and thought some on this? I'd appreciate your thoughts in this area.

Cool :-) Great work. This might nicely go together with restxq.

Is the tutorial freely available? I’m not a student but an interested amateur. Thanks

I tried but it sounds like it is impossible for Steven to construct a sentence without uh uh ah uh and repeating words or half of the sentence. And the extra sounds of clicking mousebuttons or keyboard are very distracting. And even an echo. I'm sorry but this is impossible for me.
