I haven't listened quite yet, but was about to

neumann 2019-06-29T00:49:55.004Z

No worries. Let me know if you feel like you have any "ah ha" moments when you listen or if anything we say jumps out at you. I'm curious to know what those are.

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T00:50:14.004200Z

for sure

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T01:13:05.005300Z

so I'm just reading the tic-tac-toe episode and it gave me a great idea

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T01:14:46.008100Z

I'm doing a maze generator based on the algorithms in Mazes for Programmers. testing the decisions it makes and the changes that are made based on those changes is hard. but I could keep a reference to each stage of it and the decision that was made between each change and have time travel to confirm what happened

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T01:15:44.009100Z

I could even step backwards and forwards in time while displaying it at each decision point

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T01:15:58.009500Z

basically visualizing the algorithm

Cora (she/her) 2019-06-29T01:16:08.009700Z

this is nuts

nate 2019-06-29T01:29:26.010600Z

Oh yeah, keeping all of the states yields some pretty cool powers.

neumann 2019-06-29T01:30:08.011Z

Sounds like a fun project!

neumann 2019-06-29T01:30:53.012Z

Time travel is amazing, isn’t it? It’s even cooler that it’s space efficient!
