@drewmccormack@mastodon.social @gruber@mastodon.social Note, I don’t think SwiftUI’s declarative nature is what’s stopping it from being an alternative to AppKit/UIKit, I think it’s mostly Apple dropping the ball by providing toy APIs or no API at all. The issues I mentioned have simple solutions in the SwiftUI world.

@pfandrade@mastodon.social @gruber@mastodon.social Hot take: We will start to see LLM optimized languages, not designed for human consumption. They will be optimized for LLMs, and include typing hints, but use a dynamic compiler to cut all the crap that you fight with in strongly-typed languages. Tests, which every LLM already produces, and the typing hints, will replace static typing completely. Probably end up back at Smalltalk😂
