I also enjoyed his similar series on generating a procedural city: https://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=2940
That was an amazing read as well. I really wish the internet had more game-programming-for-beginners or whatever you might call them style microblogs. Shamus will be missed! RIP.
I remember being blown away by something similar on the venerable Commodore Amiga in the early 90s. Can't remember the name of the app, but you'd adjust a few parameters and line by line a terrain may would appear.

I loved this series and his procedural city. His death was a great loss for the recreational programming and gaming community.
I just finished watching a live-coding session (from 2 years ago) by Inigo Quilez (ex Pixar), where he constructs an entire ray-marched landscape using only maths (mostly SDFs) in pure GPU shader code.
