Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of August. Wiki, updated various sections in solar cooking experiment. Donsol, putting some final touches to the new release. Hakum, completed Recharge. Rabbit Waves, added an image for the 404 page, completed a new comic page, and finished a page about Pen and Paper Ciphers. GrimGrains, published a new recipe: Curried Lentil Rice Loaf. Updated the section about Weck jars. Win7, a little file manager that looks just like the Macintosh windowing system. POP-2, trying to resurrect a ALGOL language from the 70s. In comparison to the past few months spent mostly on our own, we've had a very social August. It seems all our friends made it up north all at the same time. It has been great to run into some familiar faces, meet some new ones, and fill our days wandering in the woods catching up on the time we spent apart. But we really ought to start thinking about returning back south ourselves soon. Many of our conversations this month have been about languages and coded messages. How to encode a message, how to transmit them if the signal is noisy and how much of this can be done practically with just a few tools. We've added a new page to Rabbit Waves talking about just that, covering examples from history and some practical pen-n-paper exercises that can be done by anyone. Pulling on the thread of auxiliary language, Devine made open call to invite anyone writing Concatenative programs to see if they would be willing to implement a POP-2 compiler for their own language. The idea is to see if this mostly dead language from the 70s could be revived as a language of exchange between the different insular Catlang dialects. Devine has also been busy writing a talk, and making many, many slides for the upcoming Oredev 2026 in Sweden. Book Club: We are rereading Dracula by Bram Stoker and Paradise Lost by John Milton.

Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of June. Wiki, we had a few things fail this month, see: solar cooking experiment, and ipad media station. Also, the pressure sprayer that we use as an outdoor shower and to rinse dishes has developed a crack in its body, we smothered the gaps with big globs of LifeCalk(this quick fix has held so far). No Bears None, corrected some errors in the text, and the latest epub version will now display the cover. Rabbit Waves, completed a new comic page, the main character(rabbit) is named Hazy and the gull, Ark. The main page was re-ordered to make more room for the story pages. Colored elements in the comic are clickable and lead to knowledge pages. Hakum, completed a new comic sequence called Tangled. From across glass rectangles, the homba peer at the tiny ship rocked by a violent wake. The hrududu leaves its suffocating, oily embleer as it sails past Dander and Freckle, who glare back, tharn with terror. After journeying northward for a long time, they find a quiet bay where the hrududu dare not come and drop a heavy metal hook over the side. They watch the sun set over liquid silver, knowing the elil to be far away and that before them lie the narn days, endless and warm. They spend delightful hours under the golden radiance of Frith, rowing to the wild woods, wandering its luxurious overgrown trails, occasionally stopping for silflay. When the day wanes, they tell stories under the light of Inlé. Dander and Freckle weren't super jazzed about using Open Office, due to it being awfully slow and heavy, so they've devised their own little spreadsheet program and for the past year, have used it to keep records of all things Hundred Rabbits. It's called Nebu, and it's got a few little improvements this month! Dander also found time to make a beautiful little image viewer for that strange file format they store the assets for their games in, as well as a program to look at roms' metadata. Freckle spent much of the month immersed in their conworlds, bettering their comic skills. Book Club: We read Tales From Watership Down by Richard Adams and Sea Wolf by Jack London.

Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of May. Wiki, documented the installation of Pino's water tank, added thermostat to engine care, and updated woodstove installation. Grimgrains, added a solar-roasted kinako recipe. Uxn, added instructions for validating builds during the bootstrap process. No Bears None, we released a book! Nearly everything else was pushed aside so that we could complete it. In the last few days before our departure, we finished rebuilding our galley cabinet and installed the new water tank. As per usual, we took our bikes apart, filled our bins with fresh produce, stowed away everything, and finally, on May 17th, propelled by a strong tide and a desire to be in a quiet place, Pino flew away from the crowds of Victoria. These days, every morning at 0400, we are awakened by purple martins perched on our lifelines singing their dawn song, after coffee we write, draw, row, wander ashore, and we try to roast new things in the sun, like soy beans. On the 25th, we finally released the first edition of No Bears None for e-readers, a very detailed logbook about our sail from Victoria to Sitka. It's a heavily edited version of the original https://100r.ca/site/victoria_to_sitka_logbook.html">Victoria to Sitka logbook, with a ton of extra stuff like a 100 drawings, 17 topical chapters and 13 recipes. A big thank you to everyone who has already got their copy! We plan to release a paperback version, either late this year or beginning of 2027. Rek designed the shirt for this year's International Workshop on Plan 9 that happened in Victoria. Devine implemented a vector renderer, which allows us to do beautiful typesetting directly in https://100r.ca/site/uxn.html">Uxn. We used that to release two zines this month, one for helping folks who want to break into Interactions Nets, and another one called Fractions Are Everything that invite readers to look at fractions differently. Book Club: We are reading Sailing Back in Time by Maria Coffey, Emily Wilson's translation of The Odyssey and Heart Of Darkness by Joseph Conrad.

Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of April. Wiki, documented the replacement of Pino's headstay. Rabbit Waves, added a new page about Ship Lights. Rejoice, a bestiary of multiset combinators. Gaude, but.. in Peano's Latin. Heol, implemented combinatory logic operators. Hakum, added the last page for Sabotage Study. Summer's already here, pushing us to finish a few last minute projects aboard Pino. Between all the sewing, sanding, varnishing, greasing, climbing up the mast, climbing up the mast some more, dropping tools in the water, cabinet-making(?), we're just about ready to meet it shipshape. After taking the furler apart into a thousand little pieces and putting it all back together(without losing too many pieces), we raised our new shiny spotless jib. It looks fantastic, except that now everything else looks awfully dirty... we'll get to the rest eventually. A few days ago, we looked at our home, with the new standing rigging, headsail, new lights, filled with food, and with less than 2 weeks to go before we cast off, and thought, okay, we have time for one last big project: ripping one of the old galley cabinets apart to rebuild it, and to install a new water tank. After ten years on Pino there are very few places aboard unknown to us, now there is sawdust on everything and we finally know what lies between the galley and cockpit locker. Before we rebuild the cabinet, we plan to pass a 100L(23 Gallon) water tank through this gap to install it in the locker. While playtesting the new Donsol, we found a few things that could be improved with the Uxn Playdate emulator, so we fixed it and pushed a new version of Oquonie to the Catalog. The game should feel smoother, and ah, yes, there was this wall you could walk through... well, now that's fixed too. Devine has been haunted by a cursed idea we hinted at back in February. It has come together this month into a notation called Rejoice. We've got a brief cursory description, an implementation and a few examples to demonstrate what it is. It has been fun to puzzle over what it can be used to express. Relatedly, Giuseppe Peano whose work has directly inspired this project, wrote some of his work in a language he called as Latino Sine Flexione. The idea was to strip Classical Latin down to its simplest possible grammar while keeping its vocabulary recognizable. As a kind of tribute to Peano's work, the Rejoice documentation was translated into that language. Devine tried to emulate Peano's writing style as closely as possible, and .. yeah. Mileage may vary. By the way, thanks to everyone who reached out with ideas for Rejoice, and helped put it all together, except for that one guy who forwarded us what ChatGPT had to say about it. Don't be that guy. Book Club: We read Orwell's 1984, and are still reading Island by Aldous Huxley.

Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of February. Wiki, updated knots with a figure-eight follow-through knot, also, Pino has a new headsail! Pavol, created a volume control tool. Adelie, made it so images are drawn faster. Turye, added support for 24x24 pixels uf3 fonts. Uxntal, collected generic routines and commonly used objects into example libraries. At the start of the month, we spent a delightful couple of days deep in the wintry and rainy Spanish countryside, gathered in a medieval monastery with the Ink & Switch team for the 10 years anniversary of the studio. We also met up with Javier and Marcelino who gave us coffee and a book on celestial navigation, we will savor a cup while studying the sky. We asked folks on the fediverse for their favourite rabbits from Rek's recent series, and picked out the four most popular and made stickers. We received them just yesterday and they look amazing! Thanks to everyone who already asked for a sheet! We pack the letters by hand, and Dev makes a spirograph on the back of each one encoding the date in gear radius and ratio. We've hit some annoying issues with Arch, where mainstay programs sudden change their behavior or gets abandoned like volumeicon. Being unable to control the master volume without opening a full GUI application is a pain. Devine to the rescue! An hour's work and Pavol was born! In that same vein, while working on the new version of Donsol, we realized we'd need to design fonts larger than 16 px high, something that Turye was incapable of doing, until now. On March 6th, we'll be giving a talk at the University Of Victoria, to talk about how our 10 years of living on the water has influenced our design and development work. The event is sold out at this point, but if you signed up see you there! Oquonie for Playdate will be on sale Playdate's upcoming Catalog Anniversary Sale running from March 5th to March 19th. Devine has been puzzling over an extremely odd programming language idea and is looking for some pointers, prior art, ideas, so if ferns, rewriting, confluence, linear logic, tensor and multisets mean anything to you and interests you, get in touch. Lastly, we'll leave you with this image of Polycat working on a 2009 EeePC under HaikuOS, courtesy of Tbsp! Book Club: We finally finished reading Middlemarch by George Eliot, a very good read, we will miss it. We are also reading Red Plenty by Francis Spufford and This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. We also watched great movies like The Battle of Algiers(1966) and Z(1969).
