  • I went to the Museum of Science and Industry, before riding around Jackson Park. Then I took the Lakefront Trail all the way to the north end of the trail. #chicago #dusk #skyline #darktable #photography

  • @anton @thezerobit this project has taken up the majority of my free time and spare thought this year. I have no regrets. It is magic. It has been very rewarding and I highly recommend making visual programming languages.

  • @bryan but, I have a severely negative reaction to companies requiring me to talk to people (or worse, an AI) on the phone. And T-Mobile got to the point where literally everything required a phone call, even things the "T-Life" app or website is supposed to be able to do, that never actually worked.

    Even once I was talking to a real person, getting a transfer PIN sucked. Just a miserable support experience.

    Not because the people are bad, but because the systems are designed to be hostile.

  • @anton @thezerobit my recommendation is to find a 2D drawing API that you like, and experiment with drawing the basic primitives of your language, and seeing if it scales up acceptably. Once you have that, you can work out how to make those experiments parametric, and how to connect them to the underlying runtime of your language. Pick interaction semantics that are easy to implement. Every button in mollytime triggers on mouse down instead of up for example.

  • @Gina I think the worst part about that is not the (stupid) effect; but the fact some humans in fragile state of mind can start empathize with bots actually start believing they are having a real conversation. There is absolutely no reason to try and make a chatbot look like a human, yet they are still doing it.

    And it (literally) kills people. I will never understand how they can keep up with that crap.

  • @anton @thezerobit it also helps that the language runtime itself under the visual representation was something I already knew how to build, as this project follows many prototypes, and other language experiments before it

  • @bryan it was the best deal at the time, and every time I looked into it for several years, for the things I needed. For a dozen years or so, I traveled full-time in a motorhome, so I needed good, fast, unlimited hotspot usage on my phone, which T-Mobile came the closest to most of the time. I usually kept a second plan in addition to the primary phone, either from Sprint or Verizon for times/places I couldn't get T-Mobile service. By the end, TMo had a better network than anybody.
