Fractal KittyI tried to summarize some of my Recurse Center activities for the last 12 weeks in a blog post and still probably forgot some stuff because it was jam packed with amazing people, pairing, projects, and study groups.tl;dr - I did lots of stuff, really enjoyed my time, and plan to continue learning and growing<a href="https://www.fractalkitty.com/time-at-the-recurse-center/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.fractalkitty.com/time-at-the-recurse-center/</a><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/indieWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indieWeb</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/recurseCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recurseCenter</a>

Fractal KittyStarting 3d print of enneper surface created with Houdini - hope it works :) It seems like it sliced ok.

Fractal KittyOk - a short interactive fiction with a possible mostly truthful ending is done. HTML and css only.

Fractal KittyToday - I started working on a game called Lost Signal as part of a recurse center game jam. It will mostly be a short story - but I hope to do it with html/css onlyI hope to have it done tomorrow - we'll see :)<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/recurseCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recurseCenter</a>

andie :oh_no_bubble:Been working on a little text editor called `uwu` for the last day or so as a learning project at Recurse Center. Finally starting to take shape! There's a welcome message and cursor is movable now. :nkouwu:This has been so much fun. I've learned all about how terminals work and how things like screen size and key presses work. Will keep plugging away at it. <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/texteditor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#texteditor</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#learning</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/recursecenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recursecenter</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/uwu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#uwu</a>

Fractal KittyI roughed out a game of life penguin toy for a few hours today after not sleeping with the storms last night. It felt good to just write, rewrite and then rewrite what I was wanting to make as I went - I should have recorded (maybe streamed?) how it evolved.Live: <a href="https://codepen.io/fractalkitty/live/JojRByL" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codepen.io/fractalkitty/live/JojRByL</a>Code: <a href="https://codepen.io/fractalkitty/pen/JojRByL?editors=0110" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codepen.io/fractalkitty/pen/JojRByL?editors=0110</a>You get to draw between each frame with your penguin in the GOL, but can't let more that 60% of the grid die or get caught on an unstable iceberg.

Josua Jäger / JaggerJoJust stumbled over <a href="https://www.recurse.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.recurse.com</a> “Invest six or 12 weeks programming at the edge of your abilities alongside motivated peers. Do a programming retreat in NYC, hybrid, or remotely.”Sounds interesting as a retreat. Anyone went there already? I'm curious about the experience.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/recurse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recurse</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/recursecenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recursecenter</a>

andie :oh_no_bubble:I got accepted to the Recurse Center, a programmer retreat!! :akko_excited: :floofHappy: So happy to have the chance to grow and learn alongside other smart, kind, motivated devs. Will be going to the US for ~3 months early next year in the NYC area! Can't wait!! :heart_pride: <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/recursecenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#recursecenter</a>

I also managed to get a segfault in <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Rust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Rust</a>/ <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/RustLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RustLang</a> for the first time ever! It was, of course, due to some unsound FFI while using GTK.
