  1. Microsoft finally open-sources their ancient 6502 #BASIC, a groundbreaking move... if you're stuck in 1975! 🕰️ Meanwhile, the rest of the world continues to laugh as #Microsoft celebrates their archaeology project like it’s cutting-edge innovation. 🤣💾

  2. Слабкі сторони створення зображень ШІ
    Найбільша вада програмного забезпечення для створення мистецтва штучного інтелекту полягає в тому, що воно повністю ігнорує основи та переходить безпосередньо до розфарбовування самого зображення.

  3. Regardless of what you think of him, I found The 8-Bit Guy's recent video about the faster "Random Maze" BASIC code quite interesting. I think using bit-patterns to generate an 8 character section of the maze from a single random value was a touch of hacker genius.

    However, I was dissatisfied with how long his code takes to generate the patterns ahead of time: 43 seconds on my PAL C64. So I had a go at optimizing it. Got it down to 8 seconds, with plenty left.

  8. @scruss I missed your poll and I missed an Apple Business Basic on an Apple /// in your list. It Runs the Loop at least once.

  12. BASIC on micros handled FOR loops their own way. Then, after 1981, they mostly behaved better — and all because of an obscure US Government standard

  17. La cosa ya casi está. En lo básico ya tengo una mina, con sus diamantes, piedras que pueden caerse, y hay que subir a "vender" lo conseguido. Voy a ver si le meto algo más de reto, para que no sea muy simplón. #BASIC #Microhobby

    These days I'm digging Python more.
