@eli_oat I've made some changes to the permacomputing wiki to make this distinction clearer, and I was wonder if you had editing right for the site? If so, you could help improve the /concept and /projects pages.

@klardotsh Glad to see you made it safely to Montague. :) Enjoy your time at anchor! We were stressed for you today, sorry to see it was so crazy.

Since it looks like we'll have lots of friends gathered in Saint-Louis during Strange Loop, if I plan a Merveilles/Permacomputing meetup on the 20th, who's interested? Would you like to use this place to coordinate, or use the PM mailing list?

"baroque chains of dependencies"

Was that added in the latest revision? I don't remember reading this in the draft. It's perfect. :eccehomo:

The paper includes this pretty pattern from @viznut

Monochromatic pattern that looks like birds heading rightward.

@neauoire I found this really interested, but the art historian/permaculture designer in me wept a little when the paper wasn't able to root it's definition of "limits" in specific art practice nor permaculture design itself. That seems like a really powerful next step, to me, because it helps the community step further away from retro-nostalgia, which can be a little tangled up with capitalism

Wait a second.. Uxnlin is a graph reduction engine!

It's awfully pretty out here now that the rain stopped, too bad the wind died.

This little 32 points circle lut goes a long way. I doubt I'll need much more than that to draw the whole of the lunar lander vector.

Pulled into Maple Bay, we'll leave tomorrow morning at first light for Ladysmith.

Perfectly desolate day.

Wrote directory.rom(300 bytes) that generates an html index from a folder:
paste.sr.ht/~rabbits/4747ca229

The docs/ folder, in which I keep copies of websites and texts for reference on my wiki, is now browsable: wiki.xxiivv.com/docs/

A directory index of the docs/ folder on xxiivv.

People keeps asking me to make the wiki.xxiivv.com/docs/ directory readable, I'll make a little uxn program that serves html indexes.

I think I'd like to make a lunar lander game, I've been thinking about it for a while, I think I have all the parts I need for this. First, I need to have a pretty good vector drawing syst- *gets lost for 2 hours drawing rapidograph apertures*

In mathematics, the four color theorem, or the four color map theorem, states that no more than four colors are required to color the regions of any map so that no two adjacent regions have the same color.

@neauoire This was one of the first complex algorithms I’d ever coded way way back, in Pascal and all 🙂

@neauoire a very very cool+related blogpost dropped today! perfect timing puzzlezapper.com/blog/2023/06/

(this whole blog's worth a dive)

@neauoire On a plane. You seem like the sort of person that would be interested in other topologies (like the torus).

So happy to have found a copy at the thrift store, I've been looking out for this one for years.

Carrol's Sylvie & Bruno

Don't interrupt, Bruno said as we came in. I'm counting the Pigs in the field!
How many are there? I enquired.
About a thousand and four, said Bruno.
You mean about a thousand, Sylvie corrected him. There's no good saying "and four": you can't be sure about the four!
And you're as wrong as ever! Bruno exclaimed triumphantly. It's just the four I can be sure about; cause they're here, grubbing under the window! It is the thousand I isn't pruffickly sure about

@jameschip I know you're cogitating about OS interaction design and virtual machines. I've been reading this paper and there are things in it that might be interesting to you right now, at least I hope :)
