From this simple and entirely logical premise comes an astonishing realization that modern #science itself may be wrong (incomplete). It shouldn't be too surprising. Our own theories have evolved over time as well and those theories model reality 🤔

How's that for a #strangeloop ?

«Awakening» a short film by Strangeloop.

In a bleak factory set in the not-too-distant future, a worker undergoes a radical transformation due to a technical mishap.

@mykhaylo @jbz now I need to try both! I heard about Babashka at the last #StrangeLoop and… it slipped out of my mind

I can probably get #SchemeSh packaged in #Fedora easily, we already have #ChezScheme

@garrett @hub indeed. We need to get better at doing this ... When #StrangeLoop wound down the organizers suggested something like this could be the future, but in practice people still want to get together because we have not solved replacing the #HallwayTrack yet

Still bummed out that Strange Loop isn't happening anymore. Does anyone know of similar conferences? #strangeloop

@billseitz Happy to make a connection about connections!

Here's an upcoming paper about how the IETF makes protocols about protocols: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tgZ86ugijXPUOo_lD3kLfQBPbneecUNzZim1GOgkC1M/edit #Internet #protocols #meta #selfreference #strangeloop

Ran into some Strange Loop Conference talks. Most of them are completely beyond me, but so interesting. It's sad to see the conference is ended just as I discovered it. Glad that they've put most of them up on Youtube for me to consume when I've finished a bit more of my CompSci education and can comprehend more of these ideas.

A good question from this morning: what’s a good way to discover local and regional conferences like #bangbangcon, #strangeloop, #gogaruco, and all the lovely eclecticons.

Anyone have advice on this?

I can’t remember the last time something this great was on a San Francisco stage. #StrangeLoop at ACT is a terrific “Big, Black & Queer-Ass American Broadway Show.”

My favorite talks from #strangeloop 2023: https://writing.natwelch.com/post/730

Kind of funny that my last post on Twitter (10/27/2022) was something about "Architecture of Decentralized Data"

The talk is still great and needs more audience

If you develop or design software, check out this great talk on "Architecture of Decentralized Data"

Fun little activity: Sonic Garbage. Build your own loops with the audio from random YouTube clips. https://sonicgarbage.greg.technology Now zoning to my #strangeloop

@catastrophines yes, often. I also suspect that sometimes these kind of ear worms exist precisely because we might actually know the words and our brains are trying to work out or remember what the words actually are, so they just loop a refrain ad infinitum until we consciously recall the missing pieces. #strangeloop

If you can't get enough @roguelike_con (#RoguelikeCelebration), here's a talk from this year's #Strangeloop from @pyrofoux on #ProcGen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq5C82Nn7XM&list=PLcGKfGEEONaBNsY_bOj8IhbCPvj6OAdWo&index=40 (Oatmeal is cheap: A fundamental theorem for procedural generators)

More talks starting in about an hour!
