  • Kernel Space - banishes the target to a plane of existence filled with corn

    B Tree - an AOE summon of a permanent swarm of bees in the targeted area until the bees all die or leave naturally

    Monad - device that transmutes one set of spell components into another. These can be strung together to form very complex things.

    Extended Backus-Naur Form - Allows one to transform into a memetic form to be carried in the mind of another; also extends to your clothing and any carried items.


  • Python is Spanish; a ton of people learned a bit in school and never picked it back up again. Places that speak it natively all have their own conventions because, even though the native languages were replaced by colonizers, a lot of the native languages patterns remained in place. Most places that speak it are super welcoming and stoked that you’re trying to learn.












  • I’m invested because higher adoption of my preferred platform causes prices of said platform to drop, making the platform economically attractive to develop for.

    Fewer users causes less effort to go into the platform by larger corporations due to lower revenue streams, diminishing updates and feature count over time.

    Eventually, users leave due to pain points not being addressed. Shrinking user bases causes independent developer talent to focus on other platforms since the economics no longer work in the marginal case.

    The shrinking independent developer contributions to the ecosystem make the required effort to develop for it that much higher, since the tools and apps that would have been built weren’t.

    Higher development costs slow down feature pacing, due to the increased effort needed to substitute the efforts of missing ecosystem developers.

    Lack of feature cadence drives users to other platforms, shrinking the user base, bringing us back to step 1.
