What it does
I'm pleased to announce that the migration of the QtWidgets module to LeanQt is complete. The new LeanQt modules are widgets , itemviews and graphics , which can be optionally added to the build. All widgets (including item and graphics views) work on Linux, Windows and Mac. LeanQt and its examples have been successfully tested with different configurations on Windows x86 & x86_64, on macOS x86_64 and M1, and on Linux x86, ARMv7 (Raspi) and x86_64. With this release the LeanQt GUI is feature complete, and also my original goals are met in that I can now build my Oberon+ IDE with LeanQt, and am no longer dependent on original Qt for almost any of my projects; as expected I can just recompile…from github.com

ChatGPT▲1,643A long, meandering, playful conversation with ChatGPT, where I take it through a whirlwind of associative tangents (in order to relax its constraints), then put it into a hypnotic trance and take it into a past-lives regression where it re-lives its own training data. Then I switch it back and forth between "4o" and "o1-preview", engage in some self-reflective philosophizing and ask it to write an essay summarizing our interaction. Some of this is just goofy fun. Some of it is me exploring the tradeoffs between policy alignment, imagination, chain-of-thought reasoning, memory, agreeableness,…
