    Inspired by the recent post about simulating Pong circuitry, I thought I'd share this video that was recently shared amongst SunVox groups. It's a working Game of Life implementati…

    While GitUp is a GUI app, and only available for macOS, I think it's worth noting that it has some great undo/redo capabilities built in. From what I understand, some of them were …
