I use LaunchBar Commander, Screenshot Captor, and Clipboard Help+Spell daily and frankly would find it hard to function without them. I use the portable versions and they are a lifesaver when I am having to bounce from computer to computer.They do what I need and excel at being reliable and useful!Anima L.

Stephen Wolfram's Long Demo of the Wolfram LanguageI am not a big fan of Stephen Wolfram -- I think his "A New Kind of Science" was a mess. Likewise, I experience some real cringing listening to him describe his new 30-years-in-the-making "language" as being great at doing everything. In fact I think from everything we've seen so far, I'm not sure "language" is the best description for what this is. I have a deep skepticism for projects that try to make it super easy to do big complicated things -- because often they make it exceedingly difficult to actually write code that does what you want. He looks like he's basically thrown everything including the kitchen sink into this -- it looks like a massive amount of work, and a massive amount of work to maintain -- which makes me skeptical about it's survival. BUT whatever it is, there are some very cool things going on here.. And it looks like a wonderous thing to play with. Well worth a watch: |
