"Terminal.Click" with Abner Coimbre 1:21:27

36 weeks ago1:21:27

1:21:27

I talk with Abner Coimbre about his experimental graphical terminal emulator Terminal. Click We start off talking about Abner's personal interest in the terminal. We talk about his decision to build a terminal that doesn't talk to a shell, and the pros and cons of working without the shell. Abner discusses new features that he is exploring that can bring out non-textual possibilities for a terminal interface. We talk about the lifecycle and release timing for personal projects like Terminal.Click. And a lot more along the way. Links: See some Terminal.Click features (https://terminal.click/podcast/) Abner's Software You Can Love talk, and his conversation with Mitchell Hashimoto (https://terminal.click/media/) Look at the shell innovations in TempleOS (http://www.codersnotes.com/notes/a-constructive-look-at-templeos/)…

Here I talk with Matthew Crews - the from the Fast F# YouTube channel. Our conversation starts with Matthew's journey to becoming a programmer who cares about performance. We touch on different styles of educational materials, and what works at different stages of the learning process, and what we can do as programmers to improve over time. We talk about how the "Handmade" ethos translates to the F# world, the idea of "Domain Drive Design" and how it might relate or contrast with "Data Oriented Design", whether knowing about performance concerns makes programming harder, how we should go about educational materials for programmers, and more.
