@dom I've tried a few simple programming tasks but the only thing I've found to work as fast as web search + DIY (running models locally on a shit hot laptop) is asking for the syntax for simple bash scripting features.

Youtube recommended this talk about @typst support in Quarto by @scheidegger to me. Super cool stuff and Carlos highlights some big benefits of Typst: speed, better error messages, unicode support, a programming language that supports reasoning about sizes of things. Great stuff all around.
@dom@typst and I didn’t even get to talk about show rules which are mind blowing. Kind of like css selectors that let you rewrite the content. It’s so good
New project with @jeffrey_heer! Mosaic is a framework for scalable and interoperable visualization that unifies visualization toolkits with scalable visualization methods and query optimizations.
