“i just couldn’t do it again, do you know how many times i had to pretend i didn’t already know how to invent minesweeper, but then systematically reinvent it again from the ground up with a guy that also was pretending he didn’t know how to reinvent minesweeper, last cycle?”
@tychi Gonna be me when I skill switch into programming cellular automata for photonic computers. 🥰🥰
@mauve neat! funny you mention that, conway's game of life never came up in my interview cycles, but i'm fascinated by replicating and remixable systems.
tangential, but i gave a mini mind dump today reflecting on dweb camp to a virtual meetup. i wrote a blog post of what i said before i said it, but i'm setting the stage to continue growing on top of html/http as my interoperability point.

@tychi That was really interesting. Thank you for the link! The js script in particular was a really cool idea and I might test it out for some projects if I may.
Have you seen the indigenous computing theory talk by Jon Corbett from @causalislands ? I find it very inspirational.

@mauve @causalislands that’s super awesome and exactly my line of thinking, i watched the whole thing last night. i think i need to reach out to Jon and swap notes.
and please do use that script! i’m beginning to design the narrative of my research and that’s the seed to wrap react, svelte, jquery, backbone, web components, vanilla js, or my flavor: https://github.com/tylerchilds/plan98/blob/plan98/public/module.js
the whole istic bit from the talk super resonated.
