The most beautiful code I have ever see. It modifies itself to spin a world globe: aem1k.com/world/

@ilovecomputers weird, in the output the globe is all pounds and tildes, but in the source there's a bunch of letters... wonder what that's about

@monorail just that’s the initial code and those letters aren’t encoded in the data/algo that outputs the final text

@monorail those letters are in a code comment so are likely irrelevant

@ilovecomputers yeah, but anything's possible with self-modifying code... it's just weird to me that they'd bother hardcoding something that the code will never spit out
