      @@TateVanPatten It's pretty useless in practice. I know people used it to write articles with pretty illustration, but that's basically it. Anybody who does math for living doesn't need a primitive tool, it adds nothing, but it takes efforts to use. Those who are in tech field, who develop algorithms, test theories, etc. need Matlab, which does digital, not symbolic calculations.

    • @cybermodo
      @cybermodo 3 роки тому +2

      He sure might be called geek... but then again, he doesn't need to be. He is obviously MATHEMATICIAN, and probably the one specialized in Computer Science - which is legit branch of mathematics department of any university. So, loving mathematics and knowing how to design and code complex software system like Mathematica - it's quite simply his professional field.
      Sure he knows PostScript language, obviously, because he designed his program to use PS as the standard for presenting graphical output of the data structures he built himself. It's perfectly logical. Not the matter of "happen to know". Being mathematician, he is also into classic programming languages he mentions (like Fortran, Pascal, probably LISP too), and as any mathematician out there - he is very devoted to TEX word-processing system.
      I presume he loved MAC especially, because of that "notebook" visual paradigm that was brought into public. MAC epitomized the concept, before other computers like Amiga or Atari ST, PC even less. But other half of the 80's sure was the period of GUI environments.
      Anyways - the guy is just one cool creative mathematician & computer scientist. Not mandatory a geek. A guy that does his job and enjoys it.

      @@cybermodo To be honest it didn't occur to me that the reason he knows PostScript might be that he developed a software that relied on it.
      Most people who use TeX or LaTeX know PostScript is a thing but never bothered to learn it. Wolfram probably had to, just like Donald Knuth.
      Also I hope it's clear I wasn't trying to be disrespectful in any way. The guy is brilliant and he created an amazing and beautiful program.

    Mathematica really is an impressive software, and apparently its design has not changed much since the beginning, probably because it was very well thought of. Kind of like lisp, I guess, but also because just like lisp, deep down it's more or less just lambda calculus, and it's a very fundamental computational paradigm.

    I love the elegance of a big 40 columns font on a sparse background, almost like Commodore 64 text mode. Minimal use of GUI bells & whistles, this could pass well on C64's GEOS user interface with ease. Back in the days we craved for 80 columns text modes and wild screen designs with icons and menus all over the place. But this is so cool in its minimalism, almost in touch with command line, but with decent graphics mode involved.
    Love retro computing. :)

      You said it well. I kept away from all these nonsense because just like the space programs it is very misleading and because it give us a false sense of security and hope. I just watched the exact demo by Wolfram himself done 30 years after this. The program is amazing but it fails half the time. I mean you cannot rely on its credibility in terms of AI. This is because it is NOT thinking. We have to teach it to do specific things in very specific domain. It does not know when it makes a mistake and that is very dangerous.
      I have spend the last decade thinking about the correct solution at a basic level and found something truly revolutionary that can solve all these probelms. (agimachine .com)

Your attitude seems to have fallen, or at least leans out from the 90s, with its post-modern scene of pseudo-fighting-of-the-power with cynicism--somewhere where NO progress has been made. Your prediction even fails to predict *now*, since we now know there really is no "AI," rather only real "I," and in the future, we are one with it.
