@neauoire i really enjoyed this talk, impressive how you managed to cram so many of your projects and research without directly mentioning UXN :moomin_sparkles:

@tomasteck I almost slipped at one point, but I didn't mention it by name haha.

@neauoire > one thing I noticed is that obsessing over programming languages is a distraction from computer science.

This. Working with Joy I came to a similar conclusion, syntax is a MacGuffin.

It also reminds me of one of my favorite jokes: "Computer Science could be defined as the post-Turing decline in the study of formal systems."

Just watched your Strangeloop talk. I really enjoyed it.

For some time I have been exploring software that I can understand and trying to have more control over my software environment.

Your words are a real tonic.

Thanks

@monkey1 I'm glad the talk resonated with you :) If you come across things that are relevant to the talk's topic, send them my way, I'm always looking to improve my understading of these inspectable personal computing systems :)

@neauoire this was a great talk. Going to delve back into learning code again. Love that ethos / approach.
