Nope. The guy posts with his real name on YouTube so this is like TempleOS and the creator is non anonymous, quite active on Reddit, and not very young (as if the style of graphics wasn’t a dead giveaway, like a time machine to the early 90s).
In any event I engaged with the creator before and what I can say is the conversations are entirely one-sided, in fact some of the most I have personally experienced. Will take one or two words from your post or reply, briefly mention it and then go completely off on a tangent only concretely related to those words. I’ve never known them to become outright offended or insulted and yet are completely impervious to any feedback. The upshot is, this will greatly limit a widespread following, because not all their tastes are exactly mainstream.
While I've not interacted with the author, his Twitter and blog opines on all kinds of subjects and has the firm, authoritative tone of an older person who is not exactly ignorant but who doesn't recognize the depth of his own indoctrination, the silencing of the internal critic. He has all the answers already.
And, really, that's the only kind of person that could make something of this encompassing but simultaneously incoherent nature, I think.
It reminds me of the bold claims Paul Graham originally made about Arc. This website here is proof that at least something can come out of that, I guess.
Have you read any of the reference manual? Why do you suggest the product is incoherent? it has been highly polished, and have written tens of thousands of lines of code in the language, and it works very well. A nice balance of concise vs. readable.
What indoctrination are you referring exactly? I don't understand the motivation for personal attacks on the author of a product you haven't even tried yet.
For those people who would prefer not to have to waste 100 hours of their time mastering CSS, the 10 hours it takes to learn Beads might be a better bargain.
Funnily enough; the last time I tried something like that I was 25, had barely 6 months of experience, and somehow convinced a friend I had introduced to programming not more than two months earlier.
Waaay in over our heads.
Since then, I’ve realised it’s been tried and is being tried an inordinate number of times and seems to usually fail for some reason or another.
Kind of a wild goose chase for some (supposed) holy grail.
We had had a brush with AWS, it’s Lambdas, Step Functions, etc, as well as Zapier and Stamplay’s flow on our first project together.
We both came out of it convinced that there had to be a way to make it much easier yet still as powerful to orchestrate logic & services…
The goal was to make something we could use to drastically simplify the development of all our future endeavours, thinking we might also be able to sell it to others.
