I think those videos are really good, Bob. They deliver their payload
without cruft.
Been watching a lot of Veritasium recently. We need someone to do for J
what Veritasium does for modern physics. You may be the man for the job.
Yes, seriously. I don't mean just animating simple primitives, but videos
exploring significant (but under-appreciated) topics in-depth, with some
history and war-stories thrown in. Topics like:
++ Rank and Functional Composition
++ what can be achieved with tacit code
++ less-obvious uses of (:)
++ achieving an array of verbs with (`) (plus some useful boxed nouns)
++ hidden gems in stdlib (or which ought to be in stdlib)
++ the power of the new J wiki search over the old one
…etc, etc.
I'll happily offer a few librettos, in case it's not clear what can
fruitfully be emphasized.
On that last topic, I've labored under the misapprehension that J wiki
search, and Search J Wiki were synonymous. It's obvious in hindsight, but
whenever I've searched the wiki (always using the old one) I've had my mind
too full of other things to give the matter much thought.
In case there are bigger idiots than me, could we please have some cue in
the left sidebar as to the difference -- and that there is a difference?
Something like:
J wiki search [Mk II]
J wiki search [new]
J wiki NuSearch
…well, maybe not the last.
