who decided to call it the myth of theseus and the minotaur and not "bull-terminated string"

I made a blog post responding to some Hacker News comments because I don't have a HN account.

Plus, another video of me working on the game.

I'm looking for a job. I have 30 years of experience doing complex systems programming in many languages, most recently Typescript, Haskell, and Python. I learn quickly. I can do advanced mathematics.

In 2024 I helped a company migrate 15,000 customers from another company into their own systems.

In 2023 I helped develop a differential privacy database product written in Haskell.

Before that I helped develop a laboratory information management system that tracked up to 40,000 Covid-19 tests per day.

I live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, but I have years of success working remotely, and I am also willing to consider relocation. I can start January 1.

Please check out my CV.

I think there's a 50-50 chance that there's a Ginger puzzle in the Mystery Hunt, if not in 2026 then in 2027.

Watching people try to understand Ginger on the IGF show floor is absolutely the highlight of GDC.
