Why is programming fun? What delights may its practitioner expect as his reward? First is the sheer joy of making things. As the child delights in his mud pie, so the adult enjoys building things, especially things of his own design. I think this delight must be an image of God’s delight in making things, a delight shown in the distinctness and newness of each leaf and each snowflake. Second is the pleasure of making things that are useful to other people. Deep within, we want others to use our work and to find it helpful. In this respect the programming system is not essentially different from the child’s first clay pencil holder “for Daddy’s office.” Third is the fascination of fashioning complex puzzle-like objects of interlocking moving parts and watching them work in subtle cycles, playing out the consequences of principles built in from the beginning. The programmed computer has all the fascination of the pinball machine or the jukebox mechanism, carried to the ultimate. Fourth is the joy of always learning, which springs from the nonrepeating nature of the task. In one way or another the problem is ever new, and its solver learns something: sometimes practical, sometimes theoretical, and sometimes both. Finally, there is the delight of working in such a tractable medium. The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly re- moved from pure thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by exertion of the imagination. Few media of creation are so flexible, so easy to polish and rework, so readily capable of realizing grand conceptual structures. (As we shall see later, this very tractability has its own problems.)

/meta @ckipp@chronica.xyz Regarding potential new features, maybe some kind of search box? And is there a way to embed images or other media?
Tempted to make a “dark motherfucking website” also-satire that has the minimal amount of @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) to keep people from blowing out their retinas when viewing the site at night.
Make your website better in bed. Use @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { /* … */ }.

Media mix is interesting. You can optimize a work for adaptation but that keeps you from taking advantage of features of your medium. The best adaptations are sometimes difficult-to-adapt medium-specific forms that forced creativity (ex. Bakemonogatari)
why are there so many decentralized social media projects that aren’t well known and haven’t been worked on in a few years
