• Ask HN: Modern Day Equivalent to HyperCard?

  If your kid is already doing Scratch, Blockly is a really easy next step. https://developers.google.com/blockly Critically, Blockly can emit JavaScript and Python, plus it supports plugins for extended functionality. So the kid can stay inside the blockly universe for as long as they like, but easily peer under the hood and get into Python or JavaScript as soon as they like. - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• A shortage of teachers for computer science classes in California

  The issue with Alice is that graphical, block based coding is not at all an ergonomic way to code. Sure, C++ probably isn't the best for an intro CS courses, either, but even just Python with some wrappers over SDL to draw sprites is not only a better teaching tool it's also forms a more useful springboard to build other projects. Graphical, block based coding seems to be a common attempt to make coding more... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• ⚧︎ Super Smash Siblings Trans

  Unless it would contradict canon, every stage is very bright, highly interactive, full of pre-placed items, and so huge that you can usually run from your NPC opponents and enjoy exploring the stage in peace while they catch up to you. All buildings have Linux computers with actual internet access that allow you to program and print out your own projectiles/books/flags/UNO reverse cards/shinigami eyes/soupcans/cis...

• Scratch is the world’s largest coding community for children

  If your kids tinker with Scratch, try out TurboWarp[1], a Scratch mod that compiles projects to JavaScript. Other alternatives to tinker with are Blocky[2] and Snap[3]. 1. https://turbowarp.org 2. https://developers.google.com/blockly/ 3. https://snap.berkeley.edu. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Does any useful knowledge graph tool that you recommend？

  Another good one I just started working with is AnzoGraph. Also, a product but (at least according to a colleague, I'm just starting to use it myself) you can also do quite a bit of serious work with the community version. Also, GraphDB from OntoText and TBD from Apache Jena as well. Source: over 1 year ago

• Generating websites with SPARQL and Snowman, part 1

  Completely agree. I'm hoping to one day see Jena [0] compiled to a native image [1]. Having a persistent triple store with transactions, and an inference api in owl/rdfs/shacl with a prolog-like "logic programming engine", running in process like SQLite, would be awesome.

• Deployement in semantic web

  The first thing you need to decide is how to link your ontology with a programming language. Speaking very broadly there are 2 approaches: 1) Use a library like Apache Jena (for Java) or OWLReady2 (for Python). What these libraries do is enable you to take your model and create objects in your Java or Python program to manipulate it (query it, create instances of classes, set property values, etc.).

• Choice between cybersecurity and Semantic Web course

  The semantic web is more than just front end. Apache jena is an example of a semantic web library. Source: over 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What under-the-radar technology are you super excited about?

  I worked in a semweb company ~10 years ago - https://jena.apache.org/ as a general starting point is a useful library. I remember distinctly OWLIM https://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/Owlim as a great triple store. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
