Reposted by Silicon JungleJohannes Schickling @schickling.dev · 27/05/2025After 4 years of work, I'm incredibly excited to introduce LiveStore, the next-gen data layer I'm building for Overtone. It's based on reactive SQLite and has a built-in sync engine. Give it a try - would love your feedback! 1010320
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 26/05/2025turn your maps into procedural brushes and then use the magic fill tool to fill in the blanks. next i’ll be using a vision model to add descriptions to them so they can be semantically searched. 120
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 20/02/2025this is why variations matter - this is why we need way-finding. 010
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 20/02/2025when you transform information across forms it’s inherently lossy. there is no one true representation. everything is an adaptation. 100
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 20/02/2025it isn’t just *the underlying concept of a chimpanzee*. it’s every possible representation of one. collapsing into a single state depends on context and intent. 130
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 08/12/2024not yet! need to think about what embedding database i want to deploy it with 010
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 06/12/2024probably - or make it encrypted (if some forms of that last). if i had it backed up in a few places and they couldn't read it, i wouldn't really care. biggest problem is over the larger time scales it's hard to know what will stay encrypted. 000
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 02/12/2024there's a lot that we could bake directly into the os. 110
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 29/11/2024naw, it's all part of the package. it's good to learn to take care of things. 010
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 29/11/2024sci-fi mostly feels like reality. so magic is the new sci-fi. 050
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 29/11/2024tamagotchi’s as robots. i want a house full of them. all different shapes and sizes. i kind of like the idea of a robot snake… 220
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 29/11/2024often i’m curious about my ancestors but nobody in the family really knows enough to get a concrete picture. 000
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 29/11/2024i do really like the idea of a data store that is passed on between the generations. when combined with personal AI, it’s like a guardian looking over your descendants. 250

Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 28/11/2024sometimes we need to step aside and let our descendants grow up 010
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 27/11/2024it’s the darkest of pits… many have spent a lifetime down there, wandering the halls. 040

Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 26/11/2024The data has already moved, like ferrofluid drawn to a magnet. Shapes shift, boundaries dissolve—it bends because it must. 120
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024i think i can thank seph gentle (the egwalker paper & crdts go brrr), for much of that change. 010
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024mmm, i think there were a lot of people there questioning fundamental building blocks of how computers worked (and how things in other fields worked). e.g. the file system, operating systems, how software was built, things relating to data. it shattered some things that felt set in stone before. 120
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024i was sort of at a point before that where i wasn’t doing open source work out of fear of it not being ‘good enough’ or judgement or something. i was also kind of contemplating whether i should side step into community or more business facing stuff. i learnt how to build my first crdts there. 020
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024also the people in my field kind of got me past a bunch of self limiting beliefs and changed my view on what i had agency to change with computers. 110
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024i was also living in close quarters with a bunch of really smart researchers in a variety of fields, some were tech but others were totally outside my wheelhouse. so the exposure & mixing pot of ideas was nice. 210
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024i mean, i’d never really done that kind of communal living before at scale. we also went to really wild places - right up close to an active volcano, middle of the jungle with generators and wild horses. it was a pretty visceral experience. 110
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024not at a conference or single day event. i spent a month in hawaii living with like 30 researchers / strangers though. that shifted my perspective. 120
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 25/11/2024to come out the other side with a shift in perspective 130
Silicon Jungle @jungle.bsky.social · 24/11/2024look towards unrelated fields that may have similar meta problems. e.g. comedy has tension and release. so does music. what tools does each field use? 000
