       @sigridellis Computer programming is weaving with ones and zeros instead of warp and weft, or knit and perl. Knitting instructions are a bona fide machine language with sequencing, branching and looping. The product is something substantial made from the skillful arrangement of tiny insubstantial things. No brute force is required, only monumental patience and rapt attention to detail. Cloth instead of pelts,Pottery instead of stone,Bread instead of meat,Baskets instead of buckets,Nets instead of spears,All from the same "something out of nothing" synthesis that drove so much of civilization.Thanks for recommending The Golden Thread.
