Currently the manuscript is housed at the Gallery of Victoria (Ms. 710/5), in Melbourne.[2][3]

gollark: You'd end up with people still effectively programming only with an unintuitive visual interface.

gollark: It won't work.

gollark: I want to use different programs for editing code and editing textual documents. Why? Because my IDE is optimized for programming - it has an integrated terminal, syntax highlighting, autocomplete, a few buttons for formatting, git integration, etc, and Word has formatting, embedding images, etc.

gollark: That's a terrible definition.

gollark: How do you even define "job"?
