==Editing Model, Not Programming Model==

This article doesn't really seem to be covering what the thing actually is. It's a CAD program for code, with no ramifications for runtime.

Looks to me Intentional Programming is storing code in a graph database, and an editor for that. Variables and operators have UUID naming, which it hides from you. It is a database so no whitespace, and no need to pair open and close brackets because it's just an abstract syntax tree. A YouTube video shows logic operators in C rendering as circuits, or code blocks as boxes.

Is there really any other idea in it? <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/67.2.62.149|67.2.62.149]] ([[User talk:67.2.62.149#top|talk]]) 13:36, 28 March 2017 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

==What book?==

Line 14 ⟶ 27:

Here is a Java class that, when saved to the file WhichI.java, will compile and illustrate the point being made correctly.

<syntaxhighlight lang="text">

<code>

public class WhichI {

public static String i = "am canadian";

Line 24 ⟶ 37:

}

}

</syntaxhighlight>

</code>

I think that the none functioning example in the text should be replaced with this one.

Line 36 ⟶ 49:

:I think there must be at least 11 researchers who would like this page to stay. [[User:Feraudyh|Feraudyh]] 14:46, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

:I'm pretty sure this page is being used mainly to talk up a questionable company (I recently received a buzzword-filled recruitment email linking to this page and not much else). [[User:Darklink259|Darklink259]] 11:16, 17 February 2015

== An ad for "Intentional Software"? ==

This article reads like an ad for Charles Simonyi's company, Intentional Software. Almost all of the citations are either works by Mr. Simonyi or interviews with Mr. Simonyi.

== Technology Review links ==

The old paginated links for Technology Review were missing, and the Wayback Machine excludes its copy. I found where the same article is posted now (it contains the quote) and updated+archived the links, but it does mess up the dating on some of the references: it sounds like it was originally published in two parts on January 8 and 9, the currently online version says January 1. So perhaps instead of what I did the old dead links should have been kept and the new one should be added as an alternative? Or the dates should be changed the Jan 1?
