Thrilled to announce that on wed the 28th, @mrogalski.eu will deliver a workshop on Automat, his exquisite programming system that looks like something out of a dream. Event details and RSVP: luma.com/gh1yz6jk

a bird-like box with lens flare eyes and "macro recorder" inscribed on its forehead reaches a hand toward you, its fingers tethered by white splines. in the background, we see a tiny skeuomorphic mechanical keyboard, some sort of path recorder, a box reading "Compare with 60 if ≠ Then jump" in a baroque serif, a tiny USB plug with a picture of a person running away, an axolotl holding a red flag stands on a chess board decorated with red flags. yes, this is a programming tool.

New zoom warning. Because you can't zoom out once your "scale" gets to "NaN". #automat #gamedev #motiondesign

So here is the new mouse trace chunking algorithm. Notice that mouse traces are now split into meaningful windows now and zooming no longer causes chaos. Also new bugs. Powered by segment trees. #gamedev #wip #ui #design

Mouse traces now have little thumbnails on the timeline. Zooming is still a little chaotic but not for long... #wip #gamedev #ui #design

Here is a fun trick: signal handlers can perform surgery on the stack & registers for the interrupted thread. It can be used to inject fake function calls or steer the execution arbitrarily. It's almost like a built-in programmatic debugger that can be triggered with a "signal()" call.

Automat can now farm alchemy ingredients in Skyrim! It scans the shopkeeper's inventory, buying every "Giant's Toe" & "Creep Cluster". When done, performs inventory reset glitch & starts over. Another step towards fully automated alchemy grinding. #TheElderScrolls #skyrim

Programming intuitions are generally hard to build and require quite a bit of effort. Automat attempts to make it easier using a "scales" analogy. Here is how it works: youtu.be/GDXvH2CMzuk

An interesting performance tip I learned while making sense of x86 addressing system is that your arrays elements should ideally have 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes. Only for those sizes x86 instructions can access array elements directly (so no extra multiplication is needed to get an address).

Also for squiggly connections like this one. If I know the turn radius of the cable and horizontal displacement that I need to make, OtherLeg tells me how much vertical space the squiggly part will take.

I also use this to get a height of spheres on screen given 2d distance from their centers. This is useful for constructing a normal vectors.

Look at the gap between purple segments on the very left. I get the x position of the corners of this segment using OtherLeg(radius to the edge of the segment, half of spacing between segments). It's an incredibly small adjustment but makes things fit nicely.

𝖒𝖆𝖋 @mrogalski.eu · 19/04/2025

Here I use it for placing the purple segments with fixed gaps (each segment is a pair of arcs with subtly different angles).

𝖒𝖆𝖋 @mrogalski.eu · 19/04/2025

Here is a tiny but useful function. Given radius of a circle and length of a leg of an embedded triangle, it finds the length of the other leg. It may seem silly but it really makes it easier to think about geometric problems. It's like LERP for geometry.
