cl-6502 is long dormant but I spent the summer of 2022 twitch streaming the development of Clones, a more complete (but still unfinished) NES emulator. I feel like it is a mostly superior design as with many opportunities to try again, this time using the wonderful mgl-pax library from @melisgl for docs.

I should try to find some time for really fleshing it out, literate-style, like I did with cl-6502 though. 😅

@cwebber hope this gets recorded. Sounds great!

@mattly uh oh. What did bitwig break?

Lately I have been wondering "what is a good way to relearn CSS from scratch in 2024"? I'm an experienced engineer but know so little of design. And the web standards have advanced a lot since I got into the field 15 years ago.

Hell, is there a good book on fundamentals of design? Feels like there's room to interleave the two topics.

Well, collards at least has some half decent documentation now, some 3000 words later: https://collards.kingcons.io/

Will I record a talk? Who knows, but it's a start.

@clarity I had not heard about this but it sounds like a cross between a platformer and a skateboarding game the way you're describing it. (I'm suddenly reminded of Dustforce and its great soundtrack)

Will check it out.

@inthehands as someone who used to do lots of tech education in the 2015-2019 era, this is hard to read 😞

I'm glad you could help your student obviously, but gosh does it feel like things have gone sideways

I felt more at home in the IRC chat of a shitty media conglomerate 12 years ago than I do in my own home, logging onto the zoom and slack calls of a successful startup where I'm an EM now. 🤷

Be around _your_ people. That is priority number one.

@nasser lmao, incredible. (fond emacser + common lisper but I wouldn't recommend anyone follow my path ?)
