Wintergatan's first Marble Machine is programmed with Lego pins. When I make my own mechanical computer, It'll be programmed with Lego pins too. It's cooler than punch cards! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q yall probably have seen it already, but here's the music video featuring the Marble Machine. While failing to sleep, I came up with the best idea ever: a #uxn emulator that gets ROM read from a ribbon with Lego pieces with a camera, and you gotta rotate that ribbon with a gear mechanism. Program your stack ordinator with Lego pieces! Build your program in the most literal sense! Read the article (3 phone screens long): 0-based indexing considered harmful. When I make my own programming language, it will have 1-based indexing. I've said that before and I'll say that again! @bouncepaw You'll have a jolly good time when you try to access a value in the array with a modulo. December adventure, Advent of code. I turned in a Java assignment and will do so two more times, this is my December challenge!

@bouncepaw yeah homebrew is “hilariously” extremely passive-aggressive about that It sucks, and it’s so damn telling about the mindset It’s not _all_ their fault (apple policies also drive a lot of this), but goddamn it is a shitty stance @bouncepaw just use docker? I came to the conclusion that it's MUCH easier to run any dev-related services in docker (or similar thing) instead of using host system with cringe package managers. Even on systems without native docker. @bouncepaw i've been using pixi.sh for system dependencies. it's like homebrew but in rust and uses conda-forge for packages Listening to this breakcore mix because it's long and there's a girl in a turtleneck, a halo and mechanical wings on the cover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKh5eyGE9fs @mycorrhiza received just 17 commits since the latest release, which was in April. I think it's about to just dump the version so folks could have these 17 commits, and collect more for the next 6 months. Slow and steady software. Everybody, thanks for contributions! The last chapter of Shimeji Simulation is out... Waiting for the translation. What a journey. The employer delayed my internship to March. On one hand, that's not really good: I was pretty determined to start the career now, and I already told everyone about it. Otoh, whatever. https://garden.bouncepaw.com/hypha/the_mathematician A short story about a person who reinvented mathematics alone and died unnoticed. @bouncepaw to answer the question at the end, I think yes because I believe the study of maths leads to enlightenment Interest check. Would any of you be interested to take part in a #pipepunk poetry and art zine in 2024? All in all, I got a bad haircut yesterday. Now I'm wearing that for the foreseeable future. My previous post featured some poems. OK I kinda enjoyed writing them! I rarely enjoy //reading// poetry, but writing it is a completely different thing! Should I make a #zine? Я же хотел стих написать? Я написал сразу три, но маленьких в разных нестандартных жанрах: Солнечный Июль! Подсолнух Без шапки идёт Implementing Fediverse standards properly. Mastodon doesn't see my instance of @betula Uh whatever, I'll get there later. Also my architecture is crumbling. Tech debt? @tedu Tedu, I took your httpsig package, thank you! See https://git.sr.ht/~bouncepaw/betula/tree/master/item/activities/httpsig Met a guy who lived in the same dorm and using the same kitchen as me. But he graduated the university and left two years ago. Didn't think I would ever meet him again, but I did! Today I came across him in metro. He still remembered me. Turned out, he is working at the same company I'm gonna be an intern in. What a coincidence! |
@bouncepaw @eli_oat me too! https://caffeine.wiki/decadv.html
