why do you need to spend $100 on a keyboard ?? surely there are ones available for less than that
interestingly there was an (now-defunct) eisengame that was like this i think. it was called exitium (unrelated to the current game called exitium), and it worked like a cellular automaton, and players could vote on new rules for cell transitions, or something. it no longer exists and the source code is lost iirc.
- nomic which doesn't have any gamestate, and the things in the real world are what the rules concern
- nomic where the structure of gamestate is formally mathematically defined, and strongly typed
- "common law" nomic, based on judicial precedent and "tradition" instead of writing everything down explicitly before using it
- computerised nomic (designed better than conic nomic 1.5)
- nomic where everything has to be done in person and on physical paper instead of over the internet or on the computer
- nomic where all the rules are in a loglang
- nomic where all the rules are in toki pona
- nomic used as a system of governance for some other actual thing
- nomic where people actively try to create contradictions and confusing edge cases in the rules
- dictatorship nomic
- federation of different nomic games that is itself a nomic
post your Nomic Ideas in the thread below

you don't have to scroll all the way back up because the navigation bar follows you down. unless you are on netscape or something in which case it doesn't.
"nephroid" or "reniform". these are both very fun words to say. both of them mean "kidney-shaped" which i think is funny.
a (binary) float is basically a representation of a number a * (2^b) (where a and b are integers), and any fraction with a denominator that is a power of 2 has a terminating decimal representation.
(any rational number can be represented "perfectly" in decimal, possibly with an infinitely repeating sequence of digits, but i assume by "perfectly" amby means "terminating")
(also any decimal that ends with infinite nines is the same as the one obtained by replacing the nines with zeros and then incrementing the digit before the first 9. eg 0.9999... = 1.0. )
this seems like a floating point moment. probably, anything greater than that number you have found will actually be represented as 550, and that and anything smaller than it will be represented as some number slightly smaller than 550. if you wrote the numbers in binary, it'd be the difference between 1000100101.1111...110 and 1000100101.1111...111. i think.
i assume that's what's going on anyway. it might be something completely unrelated
troubling, perhaps ui/uxment should occur somewhat. i feel like the buttons might be the wrong way round but i am not sure
yeah, i feel like 6/2(1+2) is sort of like, intentionally ambiguous in a way? like, if you meant (6/2)*(1+2) then you'd write (6/2)(1+2) or 6/2 (1+2) or something, and if you meant 6/(2(1+2)) you'd write it 6/(2(1+2)) or 6 / 2(1+2) or
6
------
2(1+2)
etc. what i mean is that whichever of the two interpretations you intended, you would write it in a way that makes it obvious that that one is the one that you mean, but the form in the question has been written in a way that isn't obviously either one, which makes it seem somewhat artificial somehow, idk. wow that was a long sentence
i do not want something client side (apioforum has 0 javascript whatsoever and i quite like this). i think the markdown library we're using has support for (serverside) latex which just needs to be enabled, but i will have to check.
