@queenofsquiggles i like the way blender geometry nodes handle loops, but it can get messy real fast.

@queenofsquiggles I once made a node graph based audio synthesis setup and needed looping for "polyphony" to play multiple notes at once.
For that I had a begin loop and end loop node that turned 1 path in, into N paths inbetween begin and end.
It was fine for that usage case but I wouldnt rush back to do that again.

@queenofsquiggles I think its unsolved!
In my platform Gigi, I have a subgraph node which lets people make "data defined nodes" or re usable sub graphs. The subgraph node also has an execution count on it, and lets the nodes inside it know the iteration index.
That's my approach, and it isnt the only way, but I dont think anyone has an answer that makes us all say "of course! That's how to do it!"

@ferricoxide @jeffjarvis @bredow That's the point Kagan made in a nutshell, the public are pretty much resigned to wait till they come for them, instead of organising, finding exploiting weak points, arming up, creating security zones, generally preparing for civil war on the streets if need be, instead apathy and resignation reign. Learn from countries that successfully resisted the might of the US in the past and build on that.

What the fuck even are loops in a node-graph based language. I might need to actually do research for this shitty toy language. What the hell?

@jeffjarvis @bredow Trump knows he is doomed if he loses power so losing power is not something he will accept. His opponents are still clinging to the idea that the old rules will still work but those useless incantations have little use in the Brave New America
