big change. ripped out retroforth because it was kind of slow. put the whole thing in a recfile. surprising nobody. the difficult thing about this change (although i am otherwise happy) is that the source is a single file, the rec database at `/db/database.rec`. this makes it impossible (as far as i know) to to an incremental build such as with make(1) because the source file, as soon as you update it, is immediately newer than all of the target files. so everything gets rebuilt on every build. so i just build everything anyway for now. until i can figure out something better. also i export the comic to gemini, which you can find at the link below. gemini://tilde.town/~dozens/comic

There was a sense of euphoria while we
were in flow, like we were invinsible,
but afterwards everything seemed
brittle and fragile like it was held
together with duct tape and kite string
and like it might all come crumbling
down if the wind blew in from the wrong
direction. And there we were in the
aftermath, unsure whether we
accomplished our goals, who we hurt in
the process, or if there was anything
good about it all.

So anyway that's what we call a
"hackathon". The tech bros invited me
to "do some lines" and at this point I
can't remember if it was code or coke.
