Your comment must be more about the environment of the web browser you are using?
The site is a staticly published version of a Pluto notebook, which uses modern web features to enable interactivity, reactivity, code syntax highlighting, etc. etc. Tradeoffs to enable those features but requires enabling your browser features. The underlying file that the notebook is based on is just a basic `.jl` file, so you could happily run the notebook from a Julia instance instead of the browser-based notebook environment.
Julia itself will be happy to run however you'd like it to of course.
Do you mind mentioning what browser it is? It works fine on Firefox, and I presume Chromium-based browsers too (since this article has gone through a few rounds and I haven't heard anyone else complain, though some of that was before it became this "notebook" version and was a static page instead). Is it one of those instances where you have Javascript disabled and the page assumes your browser is just not capable of JS instead of telling you to turn it on?
I was on ancient version of safari. I use for browsing. I completely understand why it wouldn’t work. I just feel that information published on the web should degrade to a useful state for consumption.
The HN description actually referred to nicely layered technical abstractions. Which is why I had clicked the link. The description of Julia as being Lisp like. Thank you for taking an interest. I sill go see if a newer safaru works.
