Non horns story time …

A long time ago I was but a young lad living in eastern Europe and I use to watch this cartoon. The actual content of this cartoon are lost to the ravages of my memory but a few things stood out, the main character had a flying board and the opening sequence was him flying through these hallways that were broken into geometric shapes and there was a big face that he flew towards.

Sometime later especially during university it became a recurring niggling idea. Did it exist or was it some dream or fantasy? I’d get enthused once in a while and try searching the depths of the net for it with no luck.

It wasn’t until I had graduated and was working, close to 20 years after the fact that I found it ! The name of this show is now imprinted on my brain.

I think it’s A because I assume a portal stitches two points in space to each other.

So if I have a surface A and B with a portal ‘]’ in the middle A0 A1 ] A2 A3. B0 B1 [ B2 B3

A portal creates a new surface

A0 A1 ][ B2 B3

And if you move the portal the new surface changes.

A0 A1 A2 ][ B3

Speed is distance over time. When a portal moves the object that passed through the portal stays stationary. Let’s say I am standing on B2. When the portal advances I find myself standing on A2 , have i moved? No the environment has changed but i am still in the same relative position with respect to the portal surface. No distance travelled so no speed.

This is exactly my issue. I like the party I like the characters but when I declined to get involved with someone they recoiled from me. Possibly this is somewhat realistic but I don’t belive it should be true of every character.

Plus I’ve known these people for a week. Fair enough you want to smash but don’t take it personally when I decline its not like we have a long established relationship.

Dina , it’s a bitmap font and there’s a TTF version as well.

It’s one of those things where I’m just used to it I think. The bitmap is sharp and everything else I’ve tried feels blurry or heavy.

For personal stuff especially when I use git just to sync between laptop and computer most of my commits are the things that don’t work and I use for new stuff ~for changes and X for broken stuff.

So a commit can be " + new feature ~logging to accommodate new feature X Edge case crashes the new feature."

Video content like this makes no sense from a consumer point of view. So much more useful to just read an article, you can skim and get the jist , you can copy paste to play with it. And if there’s anything of value you can bookmark it and quickly find it later without having to live through 18 m

This is a crazy take.

So in your view nothing is worth sharing unless its complete and you “deserve” full credit? So the concept of idea sharing is alien to you?

The idea of proof of concept is not to claim a stake on a concept. The idea is to show the feasibility of something using some assumptions. It allows you to reason about the work and decide if you should commit to further exploring the concept, or it allows you to identify the key hurdles. It also allows you to even just record a thought or idea because it might be useful to others.
