Everyone’s seen the Sketchpad demo. Few understand how it actually works. I reimplemented Sketchpad from scratch, and I’m making short videos that recreate Sutherland’s demos and explain how they work. The first 8 are up — from drawing a line to the famous rivet. Link below 👇

It's a cruel misfortune that ADHD is heritable. You're telling me I have to spread out this small amount of executive function across 3 people??

Buffering but for video games. Just like listening to the first chapter while you download the rest of an audiobook, you should be able to play the beginning of a video game as the rest of it downloads.

It's fun discovering the different win states.

Anyone looking to use @folkcomputer.bsky.social for education in the fall or spring? Looking to partner with organizations on R&D (paid) and education outreach (pro bono via our non-profit!) :-)

Fun fact: "property damage" isn't mentioned anywhere in the Nonviolence Wikipedia article. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviol...
