I think the last time I checked it out, it didn't support the Motion coprocessor yet. Thanks for the reminder to use it now that it does!

Author here. Happy to explain any technical details I left out :)

Agreed. But given the rest of forrestthewoods's post I thought it was worth pointing out.

You didn't read very carefully if you missed that everything was interactive.

"Today, I will show you how to make something like this: (move your mouse around in the box below)"

"The demo below just draws a bunch of line segments and tracks your mouse position."

"Here's what all that math looks like: (move your mouse over the box)"

Mine ( https://github.com/sartak/ ) is currently a 558 day streak. I'm studying Japanese, so I've been committing the new words I learn (at least one every day!) to my "vocabulary" repo. I started a while before GitHub even started tracking streaks.

You should remove the word "randomly" from that sentence, since it's anything but random.

Great article but I'm confused about this bit: "Jesse McReynolds, a graduate of Caltech, had finished coding a low-level network library to send IPX packets over a local-area network. The code was written based on knowledge gleaned from the source code to Quake, which had been recently open-sourced by John Carmack at id software."

Warcraft was released in 1994. Quake in 1996. Quake's code was released under the GPL in 1999. So code was Jesse McReynolds cribbing from?

I've been developing a similar system for accelerating my Japanese study, and I haven't been able to release it yet either. It has nothing to do with the quality of the code, it's that right now it's designed specifically for myself. It practically hardcodes my username and other details like that. Maybe other programmers could use it, but preparing such a package for general consumption takes lots more time and energy.

Perl has this too: https://metacpan.org/module/Shell
