I knew of the ideas linked to live programming only thanks to Bret Victor's presentation. I guess I did not do my bibliographical homework.

Your spike about karma was unnecessary, the goal of this submission was to gain exposure to have feedback, which I got.

I will now act on this feedback. Your essay is very interesting in this regard to help me understand what features are necessary to implement, as well as for bibliographical references.

Sorry, I guess the karma comment was undeserved, but you will always get more up votes if you say "Bret Victor" in your title, intentional or not.

Good luck with your work and I'm glad my essay was useful!
