DSL's are great, but we should write them inside of a language like Lisp, Scala, Haskell, etc. where we have all the tools already for editing and debugging them.

I think peterson is crazy but some of this story was fun

I’m curious why you think he’s crazy.

My thought as well. He seems to be delving into the metaphysics of quality.

I’ve been having what I began recently suspecting to be aural migraines for a few years now. They happen once a month or less. I was surprised to see that these images are surprisingly similar to what I’ve been experiencing. At times, I can’t even read my screen. I’ve tested my own peripheral vision while it’s happening and have noticed blind spots. After 20 minutes to 2 hours, things go back to normal.

Same. Been happening to me since puberty. No doctor ever connected the visual distortions I described with migraines. Now I know I am not alone. Mine generally last 30-40 minutes start to finish, followed by an hour or two of wooziness. But no pain, thankfully. My wife gets three day killer migraines. I guess I am lucky.

I get the same flickering images. Vivid primary colours and triangular shapes with black borders. And likewise, no pain.

One thing I notice is that they are triggered by bright light. Briefly going outside into the the sun, will often trigger a bout.
