Spreadsheets and databases are the same

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Biology and computer science are not two different fields; they are both branches of information science, working in distinct media with much in common.claim0.727
  Strong unification claim motivating the proposed new science of embodied computation
• For DNA database search, it is usually more efficient to run many sequential searches in parallel than to parallelize individual searches.claim0.719
  Observation from practical experience with DNA sequence comparison.
• Concepts are not the same as conventional datatypesclaim0.718
  Jackson's assertion that concepts encompass state and behavior that motivates them, beyond what programmers assign to datatypes
• A bar chart can be constructed by linking a rectangle's height to a spreadsheet cell value without additional complexityfinding0.714
  Demonstrates that the unified rectangle/value-rule model enables users to build graphics tools intuitively through familiar spreadsheet patterns.
• There appears to be a systematic relationship between the frequency of concepts and the dictionary size needed to resolve features for them.claim0.711
  Feature presence depends on concept frequency in training data, with a threshold scaling inversely with alive features.
• Simple experiments with an in-memory Sqlite database suggest dynamic binding operations take several orders of magnitude longer than a dedicated language runtime support library.finding0.702
  Empirical observation that a relational engine is too slow for associative lookup, motivating specialized implementation.
• I believe that similar (not identical) results will come from asking people in other cultures, to answer questions similar to those on pages 312-14.hypothesis0.699
  Predictive statement about cross-cultural replication of housing preference patterns.
• Properties in each cluster appear to be similar or interrelatedclaim0.698
  Interpretive claim that the statistically derived clusters reflect conceptual similarity or interdependence among the properties.
