A bit more evidence that a financial crisis is coming: the International Monetary Fund has expressed some concern at the increasing interaction between banks & non-banking (private) financial institutions;
whereas Banks have largely curtailed their explicit risk profiles since 2008, they have been lending money to non-banks with much higher 'risk appetites'... leaving banks still exposed (albeit at one remove) to large credit failure(s)... just so you know.

My tiny BASIC interpreter now runs on CP/M. Currently slow and not so tiny, because it is not written in assembly language, like the DOS version. Good enough to play minesweeper on my 8MHz CP/M system, though.

Question for the #3Dprinting crowd - are there commonly available filaments/printers that can make objects that are okay with spending half an hour in boiling water?
Specifically spools for spinning wheels.
Decided to do my lil space simulator game.
Not exactly sure how I am gonna code it, but I would myself play a little casual space exploration game written in BASIC.
I want you to have to travel in real time, perhaps. That way the planets you visit will seem more exciting.
All text based.
“The renowned British journalist Gordon Wilkins famously wrote that driving a Tatra T87 gave ‘the uneasy exhilaration which may be got from shampooing a lion.’”

These of you who are doing Vulkan Graphics programming... you'll know the simple joy of getting triangles on screen! :D
This post might be of interest to these starting out in Vulkan land

Well, it's the weekend.
I have worked hard all week at my job.
Let's see if I have some time in the next couple of afternoons to do some simple coding! 🤠
I may make mini games in BASIC, or dabble a little bit in a hypertext enabled memex, written in Common Lisp!

Behold: An idea I'm playing with for a Sentinel 65X with a built-in keyboard, meant for a wedge style case. The key layout is a conventional tenkeyless, with control to the left of A and Meta left and right of the spacebar.
The Autumn Lisp Game Jam has begun! I wish all jammers a happy hack! May all your parentheses be balanced.
