> Bret Victor has himself been working on the problem for ten years

tbf, he measures the timescale of the Dynamicland project in decades, and marks 2022 as the first time "Dynamicland meets the world" [1]. Seems like he's matching the pace he set for himself, so you really can't say he hasn't had popular success if he hasn't even tried to popularize it yet.

Also tbf, any concept involving "a place where a bunch of people congregate and touch things" has suffered since the pandemic, so I think we can still maintain a "wait-and-see" stance instead of declaring the ideas dead.
