thought: there could be some hermit programmer out there living in cave who's just been silently hacking on some absolute banger of a language/os for gur last decade and one day they might pop their head out to release something
@bx based on the existence of the tech-hermits i know of, it's fun how likely this actually is
@bx if you're curious, one of them is https://liberapay.com/aloo_shu, who literally lives in an abandoned village on like, 500 euros per year
his style is doing things in a highly self-sustained way, but also does extremely lo-fi computing from second-hand tablet someone threw out taht he put termux on (which is how i met him in fact)
he likes to sit in irc because he managed to get like, 50MB of data per month, and it's a way to really just maximize the socialization you can do with such a low limit
