TIL there's a skill overlap between crochet and chess
I don't know about chess notations, but you got me interested in them.
TIL crocheting instructions look a hell lot like assembly language
It's assembly with native thread support.
slow clap

Have a lemmy gold:🥇
Weaving is actually where a lot of the logic for the first computing machines, in particular punched cards come from. On looms back then you would use punched cards to program the loom to weave complicated patterns.
This thread has been a source of fun and knowledge so far!
Well, it's a kind of assembly language - just not to operate registers of a CPU, but to assemble some crochet piece ;)
amazeballs!!!! Thank you kind stranger.

This way the guide can get lost on youtube and on lemmy! 🤪
