Different parts of computers improve over time with different speed. For example, CPU is much faster than RAM, but it wasn't always like that. Because of that, and other cases like that, there are extra abstractions in the computer design.

= gopherdata/gophernotes: The Go kernel for Jupyter notebooks and nteract.
https://github.com/gopherdata/gophernotes
> Gophernotes is a Go kernel for Jupyter notebooks and nteract. It lets you use Go interactively in a browser-based notebook or desktop app. Use gophernotes to create and share documents that contain live Go code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. These notebooks, with the live Go code, can then be shared with others via email, Dropbox, GitHub and the Jupyter Notebook Viewer. Go forth and do data science, or anything else interesting, with Go notebooks!
> I have been responsible for the MediaWiki installation on https://wiki.openttd.org/ from ~2005 till 2020. One thing became clear: it is very difficult to keep it up-to-date and to find quality extensions that live for more than a few years.
> So, we set out to find an alternative. With the experience we have had with for example BaNaNaS we ideally would like to store all the data in git. This is mostly as data in git is easier for more people to maintain, then a database where very few people have access to. Also, the wiki of OpenTTD was not big enough (~5000 pages) to really need a database to support it. As extra bonus, we would favour any system that could easily be cached.
> The software closest to this is gollum. Although gollum appears to do exactly what we want, especially as wikitext is supported via WikiCloth, reality turned out to be something else. Although it does support wikitext, or a subset thereof, it does not support templates. This is a huge issue for any real wiki, as templates make a wiki of any decent size possible. Initially we did hack in support for templates, but as it is written in Ruby, not a language any of the people involved knew sufficiently to make any decent contribution, it only added more issues than it resolved. In the end, it was decided this was not a road to go.

А мне папа как-то говорил, что вот атомы на самом деле пустые так-то. Вроде бы логично, но мне не нравилось, я не принимал. А вот тут статья попалась. Пишут, что это, оказывается, популярный миф. На самом деле атомы очень даже полные. Всякие элементарные частицы не точки, про корпускулярно-волновой дуализм не забываем. В статье стараются популярно объяснить, как это работает. Я не всё понял, но поверил.
Perhaps the matter I most appreciate Go for is its long-term commitment to simplicity, stability, and robustness. I prize these traits more strongly than any other object of software design. The Go team works with an ethos of careful restraint, with each feature given deliberate consideration towards identifying the simplest and most complete solution, and they carefully constrain the scope of their implementations to closely fit those solutions. The areas where Go has failed in this regard are frightfully scarce.

Про голянг понятно. Про остальное:
> PowerShell or the pwsh, is far better shell than bash and unix bag friends.
> Mathematica, is the programing language far beyond any other in the computing industry. A magnitude beyond all existing. It is more than a programing language, because it is really a computational knowledge base. Asides from math functions, such as solving equations or integration symbolically and hundreds other special math functions only a handful mathematician understands, it also embodies just about every practical algorithm in computer science. So, given a algorithm, you might write it in lang X for a hour or days, but Mathematica has it as part of the language, just call a function. Mathematica has few thousand functions builtin, not even needing to load a library.

In the vim case, they cannot.

The fact that the vim maintainer can send the request does not say anything about whether the people receiving it could reply."
