Co-Founder of @CroquetIO🦩 and Chief Architect @Multisynq. Also @SqueakJS. Formerly at Alan Kay’s groups (VPRI, CDG Labs, YCR HARC). Dr (EngD) ———— 👉 now on 🦋
I spent an afternoon vibe-coding a multiplayer game with @multisynq and @threejs using @GeminiApp – 100% AI coded, although I had to explain how to correct the errors. Zero server code, client-side multiplayer, ideal for AI.

We are hiring a #SysAdmin / #NetOps / #DevOps person. Until now I was covering all of the above myself besides my actual job – we are smol but fun 🙋🏻♀️
I'm looking for an experienced generalist more than someone deeply specialized.

I've been having fun reviving the Croquet from 20 years ago using @SqueakJS . It's not perfect yet, but a lot of the old demos work (sans collaboration, so far). This is pretty close to the version Alan Kay used to give his Turing Award lecture in 2004:

New SqueakJS release 1.1 lets you save Etoys projects (finally!) 🎉
If you're curious about how Squeak use the Garbage Collector to find "image segments" in Squeak, this is the code:

Also fixes Scratch project saving and has other minor improvements.
"The Colony" on Github!
I finally did it. The Colony was the first realtime 3D adventure/shooter - 1987. I posted the entire source code for Mac, PC and Amiga on Github here:
