Thank you for reading it!

To me the logs are the real heart of the book, where the actual things I’m trying to say get more into focus.

I think you’re gonna like the ending if you liked everything so far, it really wraps everything up.

Yeah, I had to shout out analognowhere. I think he’s one of a handful of artists that are writing about a similar topic in a similar style. I really like their work, it inspired me.

Also, the open-source katana is a reference to OpenBlade.

Lol much appreciated. That’s one of my favorite bits in the book. Sort of how we think of everything between Gregorian chants and Stravinsky as classical music

Lol, you know the lore

I’m glad the book (and Eurobeat) found its audience

Salvador Dali - Corpus Hypercubus

I’m glad you liked it.

Yes! That’s exactly the inspiration.

Thanks!

I was actually wondering if this could be packaged. At least AUR should be doable.

Great question! Yes, Backbone appears twice.

First, it’s artistic license. I think the Backbone.js school is the “backbone” of our current front-end era, for better or worse. So, it fits that the backbone of the hyper-cubical cross is represented by Backbone.js (twice). Spoiler alert: The cover art’s meaning becomes clear around the halfway point on the book, if you’re curious.

Second: Yeah, that was a “happy accident” by genAI. To be fair the first $50 that gets donated for this book on my Kofi link go directly to commission a real artist for a cover remake.

That’s “Backbone” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone.js)

It was the hot front-end framework before Angular (and React).
