Happy Friday!
I spent some time solving @fly.io's "Gossip Glomers" distributed systems challenges in #ElixirLang: github.com/Nezteb/gossi... #GossipGlomers
The code needs some cleanup, but all of the challenge tests pass! Shoutout to @aphyr.com for building Maelstrom; it's an amazing tool!

I've always loved computer art like Boids and now we can do it in Elixir!

I even made a little video explaining some of it, (forgive my rough/rushed editing).

It attracts money because of the potential of AGI/ASI. There’s a belief that the first company to get there will capture almost all value very quickly, so the rich people are fighting to not miss out on that.

Adeptus Mechanicus lore reads like modern tech discourse:
"Bio-chauvinism, and on such a small scale, when it comes to the processing of knowledge, is laughable. Give me any savant you care, and I shall match his worth tenfold with even the most basic of Machine Spirits."

Principles/approaches I’ve argued for and adopted in my career got me good results & have helped my own and many peers’ growth.
Yet it feels like I’m always “losing” in that what “wins” in the industry often directly conflicts with lots of it.
It’s increasingly harder to deal with the dissonance.

Today I learned “Norwegian Christian laws forbade citizens from conversing with and interacting with trolls, and in documents dating from 1274 to 1781, doing so would result in severe punishment” (source: Wikipedia), and I kinda think many people nowadays would be better off if this law was revived
