@feelingof.london If you wanna know why it’s so special, they renamed it from future of code to feeling of compute and that’s all you need to know to know!

Nearly every general-purpose programming language is Turing complete. So ask not what you can do with a language, but what a language makes worth the effort. A short note on "effective expressiveness": www.inkandswitch.com/malleable-so...

Effective expressiveness
Everything is possible. What’s actually worth the effort?

This week in Livelymerge, Dan Ingalls gives us a tour of Morphic: the scene graph, halos, text editing, and programming tools of the live, malleable kernel that lives inside an Automerge document.

We put a live programming system's entire heap inside an Automerge document — every object, class, method shared + persistent. It all worked, but it was sloooow. New lab note with Dan Ingalls and @pvh.ca on the optimizations that made Livelymerge 64× faster: www.inkandswitch.com/livelymerge/...

“About half his texts were punctuated with a question about my thoughts and feelings. I came, finally, to understand where men are coming from. I didn’t want to talk about my feelings.” Lauren Oyler procures an AI boyfriend.

Lauren Oyler: What Happened When I Got an AI Boyfriend
Lauren Oyler asks what we lose when we outsource romantic connection to chatbots, and what we gain when we love other humans.

unforeseen *benefits* include: - overhearing the neighbours' kids presenting a pretend tv show about their bug hotel (consider my faith in humanity restored) - making friends with neighbour's puppy over the wall - vitamin D

It’s really that simple. Lovely talk from Mimi at Feeling of Computing last night.
Slide with the text: making things for you is important. Followed by a hand drawn smile. Slide with the text: small acts of kindness can make a huge difference.

thanks :)) it's a function that plots grains along a path. the grains are random noise multiplied by time (so they wiggle and jiggle) that get punted outwards by some factor if your cursor within a threshold distance

Lab Day will not be purely filled with talks - but also show live demos, creative experiments, and community projects. A collaborative day that’s part unconference, part showcase, and shaped by the ideas that animate our community. Lab Day is included in your ticket localfirstconf.com
A photo of a type writer with the local first sigil in the paper, a notebook that says Lab Day, hosted by Ink & Switch, with an automerge sticker sheet. There is a clipboard saying Coffee Science and a coffee cup.
