Here I have a function that interested me today, so I wrote a program to plot it. The way it’s defined is it takes the sign expansion of a surreal number and feed it to a conditionally convergent series. For example, if your input is 1.5, that corresponds to (++-) -> 1/1 + 1/2 - 1/3.

New idea: if carpets are better than floors, make carpeter carpets. i. e. Thicker, longer fibers. I want to be walking through a wool equivalent of prairie grass

Things I don't want from a #prog album in 2026: A concept about a spiritual "Seeker" and a scientist designed supercomputer AI sentient being who come together to answer all the questions regarding the mysteries of the universe. We gave all that up in the 70s and 80s... for good reason.

We should probably do more with libraries. I think we should have libraries offer CDs as well on the same borrowing model. That would be pretty cool

On Anyways Rael mentions that an alternative he would prefer would be exploding in space with different orbits for his bones. This is a concept album with serious potential if we ever get a Genesis reunion

Sometimes I mourn the loss of 00’s infomercials. Not because they were particularly good but instead because the wave of hyperspecific doohickeys really felt like what it meant to be an “inventor” as a kid. Like I wanted to grow up to invent butter dispensers and hat racks and things of that sort.
