Link to the KDP page for The Philosopher's Map: amazon.com/dp/B0FNC11336 Link to the image archives - on imgur: imgur.com/gallery/philos… Link to the video version of the image archive on my youtube channel, where I'll upload the companion series one video at a time as I make them over the coming weeks: youtube.com/watch?v=-ejKa8… The blurb: "Conceptual Geometry, concisely explained, is a framework for manipulating and visualizing concepts, coherence, and relations. "The Philosopher's Map" is the '101' of Conceptual Geometry, and is suitable for anyone who wishes to better understand graphing, be it for personal or professional, serious or casual, logical or mystical, or anything in-between, purposes. From enhancing your quarterly reports, to giving you a framework to impress your students or teachers, to empowering you with the skillset necessary to render an entirely new method of visualizing a logical system such as Lambda Calculus or Boolean Algebra, the principles of Conceptual Geometry will not only apply to but enhance your endeavors once you achieve competency. If you're ready to make snazzy graphs and luminous visual systems, The Philosopher's Map is only an affordable purchase away from assisting you in achieving your visual-representation needs. Also includes a beginner-level introduction in the 'Advanced' section for Lambda Calculus." This has been a very long time making, four months. I'm content to present, and pleased to release, this book for $7.99 USD. The e-book is considerably higher in price due to printing costs associated with the format, the images are large enough on the printed paperback edition that they should be fully legible in the 8.5x11 book, with everything as usual typed out in a comfortable easy-to-read size 20 font. Again, this bumped up printing costs but it'll be a book that will be physically easy to read as a result. Thank you for everyone who checks out the above.

Today I learned "tropical geometry" is not in fact geometry having to do with the tropics. I am disappointed.

Been awhile. Probably going to lose verification as I'm not going to repay for verified status if I'm treated as a bot regardless for reasons I don't really understand. I'll be posting more PM stuff soonish though.

I know this is a weird post but I just realized headcrabs from Half Life look like dust mites.

@_Deez_Games Elden Ring.

Which game is this?

*11.53 and *11.54 from Principia Mathematica. Progress has been a bit slow due to personal stuff (as has been the usual for this year so far) but I'm still at it. #logic

I've come to the conclusion sea spiders are the hard mode of arachnophobia.

@Ulfsire Given how good Path of Achra is, your instincts seem trustworthy.

added the option to place units, so you can make your own formations. I was resistant to adding this for a while because it felt like potential micromanagement but as I play it over and over it feels like unignorably what the game wants

*11.40 from Principia Mathematica.

*11.24! Now with extra-wide templates.

*10.55 from Principia Mathematica. I am in fact still alive, just took some time off from my various things for a few days. Back at it now though.

@wildcraft_games Igor sounds good.

What should we name this boss in our indie RPG?

@Icehelmet Interplanetary golf is definitely a niche I didn't know I was a fan of until now.

With animations this is starting to look like a proper golf game

Reminder that Principia Mathematica by Alfred North Whitehead and Bertrand Russel can be read in its entirety on archive.org : archive.org/details/alfred…

The point I'm making is that if 'looking like Minecraft' is considered grounds for a DMCA, then any voxel-based survival crafting game that has any resemblance to an officially supported texture pack, including the original, within Minecraft is open to that. The other, secondary point is that we're not talking about goombas or pokemon. It's flora and presumably basic fauna. If you cannot see why it'll be a problem if that's a precedent allowed to be set legally, then you probably shouldn't be on X.

@Remiireee @RobBarberAuthor @pcgamer If you can’t see it’s a carbon copy you might need your eyes checked. Perhaps a cognitive examination as well. Don’t want “pain and confusion” then try not releasing slop clones.

'I genuinely do not know what to do' says developer of Minecraft-like Allumeria after Microsoft issues a DMCA takedown, forcing it off Steam pcgamer.com/games/survival…

@benstumpo @pcgamer Minecraft has a ton of texture packs that aren't just the original, that are also official. Does that mean any game that has the same aesthetic as any of those official texture packs is liable for a DMCA? To say nothing of 'it looks the same' being my entire point.

@RobBarberAuthor @pcgamer weak argument lol. It looks like 1:1 clone on textures alone, and it's everything in the screenshot not just the pumpkins.

@hypnobius I think the old one with the eye design of the new one would probably be better aesthetically, but the chunkiness of the new one is charming.

Was not happy with the deer I drew, so I tried a new design. Which one is better? 🤔 #pixelart

*10.40 from Principia Mathematica. The past ten or so propositions have been a minefield of problems in representation. That said, I believe I'm getting the hang of navigating this minefield. #Logic #Philosophy

@mirrutatep Wetland and Dustbowl are kinda cool. If somehow I could moosh Goldrush and Emerald Eden together that'd probably be the winner though.

A set of 5-color palettes Which are your favorites? #pixelart

@clemmygames It's short for 'independent', so, an independently developed game.

Define "Indie game"
