Yes. Many people would argue that HyperCard was an offline precursor to the world wide web. Web pages are very similar to HyperCard stacks and the JavaScript 1.0 manual "cites HyperTalk as a major inspiration".

I don't consider myself a good programmer. I struggled throughout my youth to grasp even the basics. This book pointed me in the right direction. Can't recommend it enough.

I feel like I could've wrote this myself. I've been dabbling with programming for about 20 years. Much of that time though I was managing other programmers and doing very little programming myself. I was also working on unchallenging (but profitable) projects for far too long. Only in the last few years have I felt like I've had breakthroughs and actually begun to feel confident. I attribute this to the fact that I've decided to do the work myself and take on more challenging work. However, most importantly, I've removed distractions from my life. The initial and intermediate learning curves of programming are certainly hard and I don't think it's possible to have any breakthroughs if you are not in a good place in your life. For me, it was the people I had chosen to surround myself with whom I realized were not supportive of me or my goals. Once I fixed that, I had more time and energy to focus on becoming good at programming. I still don't think I am "good" at it but I am certainly improving now. Don't give up, OP. I certainly never will.

Well that's a lot cheaper than Adobe Premiere at $20.99/mo. If this pricing plan came to macOS then I might consider switching.

I have a friend studying meteorology who is learning Fortran. I believe it is still heavily used for weather systems.
