It's definitely possible (I'm part of a new tech worker cooperative). Cooperatives can be many legal structures, though you need your bylaws to reflect cooperative principles (one member one vote, etc). Here's a list of tech coops if you'd like to know some others: https://github.com/hng/tech-coops

I'm happy to share more - I'll send you an email.

Congrats on the launch! Looks like you can only play one game as a guest before getting stuck in a loop when hitting "play now" between "forgot to buy items?" and "you must be logged in to buy". I also wasn't sure which one was the base to defend once I'd wandered off.

I recommend:

- Designing Freedom by Stafford Beer

- Brain of the Firm by Stafford Beer

- Thinking in Systems by Donella Meadows

The cool thing is that you can, with the BEAM, connect your shell[0] to a running server and use something like recon_trace[1] to watch functions as they’re getting called. The same principle is used for libraries like this distributed profiler so you can watch the aggregate performance of your application[2].

I've been finding Livebook (https://livebook.dev/) really useful for iterating on a script or manipulating some data in a reproducible way. I'll often try out one solution and if that doesn't work, create a new section and collapse the old one to be able to go in a different direction.

There's also defining a module and then `import`ing it.

I tried averaging embeddings at first but a GPT-3 prompt gave more interesting results!

Must have come from the Möbius strip dimension.

Minor hiccup, sorry! Should be back up.

This uses GPT-3 to find a word "halfway" between two others and it's built with Elixir, Phoenix, and Ash (https://ash-hq.org/) and is deployed on Fly.io.

Some fun ones:

- imagination and vacation -> fantasize

- enthusiasm and zeal -> fervor

- angry and hungry -> famished

- spoon and fork -> spork
