#DecemberAdventure (ides of march edition) day 6 (already??)
1. more #uxn noodling -- i wrote a little iterative routine to compute integer square roots (code pic attached -- it's just for bytes, but can be extended to shorts). it uses the observation that if N >= x^2 then N - 2(1+..+x-1) >= x. the largest such x is the integer square root, if i didn't screw up my algebra. i'm not too happy with t

i know it's waaaay over the deadline for the old computer challenge, but happy to report that i got the rudiments of a conway's game of life simulation going on the game boy advance (or at least the mgba emulator)!
had to learn a bit about c and gdb, which has been challenging but fun.
looking forward to polishing this up a bit more! maybe add play/pause and some user interaction?

this was my first attempt at both kana and using a 6-character grid. not super happy with it, but i'm starting to grasp the basics of kaisho (regular script).

I was excited to learn a little bit about Lean, formal verification, and type theory so I installed Lean and started a new project using mathlib. This immediately ate something like 13GB of drive space total (more than I had free).

Stayed up too late shooting the shit with a friend trying to understand the deformation theory of Calabi-Yau varieties for absolutely no reason… damn I miss doing #math
decided to take up the old computer challenge! don't have much time this week, but i'd like to learn as much as i can about programming the game boy advance by the end of it. my initial goal is to write a simple conway's game of life simul…

spent some more time tinkering with #uxn. got nerd-sniped by the (integer) `sqrt` routine defined in the math library (https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/uxntal_library.html). looks like it's a cl…
