[FRIAM] Curmudgeons Unite!

[jon zingale]

Steve,

I felt that the analogy was attractive. Ah, CA... This week I made real
progress on a long backburnered CA project of my own. A little over a decade
ago, I ran across this blog post on realizing cellular automata as comonadic
evaluation[☱]. Since then, I have wanted to generalize the result to higher
dimensions. While presently only a toy, I have finally written a working
model[☳]. As a pleasant corollary, I managed to learn quite a bit more about
connections on fiber bundles.

Go is such a wonderful game and I very much miss meeting up at the Violet
Crown for a game and a pint on Tuesday nights, especially during the summer
when we sit outside on the benches. I know of a couple of other go players
on the list, it would be cool to hear some additional voices on the matter.
I am very thankful to the NKH for making their matches available on
youTube[☷], some with subtitles.

Jon
