Campbell believed all stories were the Hero's Journey in some convoluted manner or another. Could tell him you tripped down the stairs, and he'd say something like, 'yes, but going down those stairs again would be you learning to conquor your fears, thus resulting in a more well rounded person.'
Or you could say 'I should stop drinking milk, because I'm somewhat intolerant' and he'd say, 'ahh, yes, you're in the middle of the hero's journey, on the precibus of learning to set your desires aside for the betterment of your health'
Any story with conflict becomes the hero's journey, and what stories worth telling don't have some kind of conflict. 'Proto-story' nonsense.
Why's these seen as being difficilt to write? It's a giant switch statement that recurses. This is less indicative of AI coming a long way and more of programmers never working on a program that stores types as data, this being the most common and rote pattern that exists.
Yes, and it starts with some rich guy wanting to live forever, and he's 'heroically interfacing himself with the network to prevent it from hallucinating.' And then the whole process becomes common place, but eventually forms a class segregation of sorts, where the types of hallucinations you're allowed to resolve are based on your education, social standing, etc. An interesting afterlife I suppose, matrix purgatory.
Idk how you can conclude it's a problem with the concept of private fields when the giant shiner is Proxy not reflecting on them like you'd expect.
It's borederline clickbait, or selfbait, as the author believes they've contributed to the ever shuffling stinky pile of hot takes that exist in the web world.
It's really not as exciting to say Proxy, a niche class, than saying there's a problem with a concept of something every day, like private fields.
I doubt the vast majority of you have any experiene with Proxy, but OOP? Im sure you've brooded on a few hottakes about that in your careers.
Saying we develop sentences one word at a time seems wrong. Sure, it might appear so when we're writing out text, lag of input, but if you spend any time meditating on your own thoughts it becomes apparent that it's more of chunks of words, clauses, or the idea, that are formed followed by a sweeping compulsion to think the words in their entirety.
The concept is conceptualized and then entire phrases resonate with said concet
Add a description please. I get it's a state machine. I get states have state-tags, transitions can be ran via these transition-tags. What is your philosophy behind this library. Why should I give a fuck that states and transitions are strings rather than enums?
All I see here is a switch statement, the input is an enum, and the action that's taken is also determined by an enum.
>Dicson has in mind the passage in Plato's Phaedrus which I quoted in an earlier chapter, in which Socrates tells the story of the interview between the Egyptian King, Thamus and the wise Theuth who had just invented the art of writing. Thamus says that that the invention of writing will not improve memory but destroy it, because the Egyptians will trust in these 'external characters which are not part of themselves' and this will discourage 'the use of their own memory within them'.
The Art of Memory, Frances A. Yates
Differentiating between external characters and internal ones is kinda interesting.
