@eli_oat Someone is making a BQN-powered fantasy console for the scale of TIC-80. Might be your thing. You've been wondering about game making and array languages :mac: Leaving Fernwood cafe where we had seitan for lunch, Rek is like, we should buy some bread for tomorrow, I glare. Created a stub to document the little graphical input language I'm using atm.  @neauoire is the next thing in store individual glyphs for the 32 uxn op codes? kinda like uxn kanji :uxn: Getting a bit faster with character input, I've also added a way to pass arrow movements across, not that I would need it because I can just click on the textarea with the pen, but it's nice sometimes to just move quickly to erase something. I can now program really slowly slouching the hell over my desk and just wiggling my fist over the tablet.  @neauoire What device are you using to test this? A standalone Wacom-style tablet or a touchscreen computer?

Still poking at a tablet pen input method. It's starting to feel really nice. Writing 'e' and 'o' still trips me apparently XD. I was tired of having to toggle modes, so I've removed the toggle and split the interface into three sections(uppercase, lowercase, symbols) so I can draw direction in the mode I need!  @neauoire just made me think, what is happening with potato, is it just being deprecated or salvaged into parts for porporo? For our upholstery projects we needed a longer ruler than the longest one we had. To make a ruler: First, get a ruler. Reading the december adventure feed, nearly halfway into the month, you'd expect people to have started to play with stuff, but the feed reads like most are lost in the weeds of setting their servers or environment and whatnot so they can finally begin. For a chillout event, it looks exhausting af @neauoire What feed? I am pushing through the Alpine Linux Issue tracker as my #decemberadventure, and it's so much fun! Added punctuation to my little shorthand recognition engine(yes, like palm's graffiti). The idea here is to assign to each one of these glyphs, a reduction into arrows that can be input easily with a d-pad, and then replace the orca glyph input system with this on instead, so I can "draw" livecoding. https://git.sr.ht/~rabbits/grail/tree/main/item/src/grail.assets.tal

 Went to a reception organized by the local athletics club, met some folks at the event that have been training there for over 50 years. Octogenarian goals right there. For the past two days, I've been experimenting with making an input method that allows me to draw glyphs as keyboard replacement. To reduce mistakes, I've added alternative shapes for some of the characters so if I miss a direction or two it still understands what I'm trying to type. The whole whole thing is a tiny 1.6kb rom.

 Uxntal lambdas to build quick data structures  @neauoire It still makes my head spin that you made a stack machine do lambdas. I just have so much trouble wrapping my head around that. It looks like I might be able to add basic support for cursive, or at least characters with ligatures.

@neauoire hah i remember a story that came out about a guy who wrote so much Graffiti that he lost the ability to write properly with paper and pen. he couldn't sign checks properly. ...remember checks? @neauoire wow first time i'm seeing this! so one had to write exactly in this format or the Palm Pilot wouldn't recognise the input? |
@neauoire hmm I don’t know a whole lot about windmills but that seems like it shouldn’t happen
@neauoire
All I see is the evolution of an equation in the complex plane
@neauoire Circular economy?
