Instead I wanted to make a "leopard-print" inside the bread, using a combination of food-dye and nested pieces of dough.
Unfortunately I proved that the concept could work, but did not achieve success:

I expect I'll do better next time, as I quickly realized that the addition of the colouring was really throwing off my dough. Adding cocoa-powder to dye the white-dough brown made it too stuff, and similarly the volume of "yellow" dye I needed to add made those pieces of dough too moist. It menat when I was trying to roll & wrap different coloured parts together it just didn't work.
In short I knew what I wanted to do, make "sausages" of one-colour, wrap in another, then layer those upon each other. Instead I gave up. I rolled some shapes, did some stacking, and realized I'd have better luck starting over in the future.
So that'll be a job for next weekend.
Also I implemented a simple intepreter in golang recently, following along from a book, and I'll be adding some new features to it. But that's less interesting.

#14I'm replanting some seedlings and another house plant, and hoping to bring a self modifying simulation experiment I've been messing around with to some kind of decent conclusion as I really want to get back to my main hobby project now (a different simulation).

I'm curious what these simulations are about, would you care to elaborate?
My goal is not really to implement the full architecture proposed here or achieve true open endedness, but just to play around with some of the mentioned concepts to understand them better.
My long term project is an amateur snail simulation. Someone else asked about it recently so I'll just link to the explanation I wrote up in relation to that question: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17692871

#16Security keys for two factor auth with fido2. I’ll start drafting the kickstarter campaign, and probably I’ll play around 3d modeling/printing some cases. Maybe also improving the website: https://solokeys.com , and, why not, blogging.

#17It's kind of frustrating to spend to much time on details like that. Nobody will ever think "wow, that navbar is smooth!".
Btw, the navbar is implemented in an open source project [2], if you want to get a look at it.

#18I finished the decoder for UDP packet streams, so I will be implementing a high performance webgl + websocket viewer for the front end. I’ll be monitoring some deep nets that are training human action recognition from LiDAR data. Training a neural net for recognising human emotions, I’ll finish up the API metering on our face recognition API ahead of some large customer demos this week. A few bug fixes in my Deep Lea…
Your weekend seems longer than my weekend. I guess you are just really productive on weekends. What's your regular job like?

#20I wrote some some code that logs on to the websites of all the companies I have contracts with and verifies that the bill was paid. If it wasn't, it sends me a warning text. Nothing fancy, but I have to add some integration tests today :)
