Life on My Home Planet
summary
A live folk‑hack tour of two built projects with concrete claims: Archaeopteris drum machine implements a 10×16 matrix of float probabilities to change beats via MIDI and live code edits; Wheatley similarity detector parses JavaScript with Johnson/SpiderMonkey, reports parse‑tree percentages, extracts echoes, and auto‑generates simple refactors like wrapper functions. Code lives on GitHub, handled a legacy codebase of 14,551 lines, produced a few automated fixes, and uses array math and parse‑tree token diffs as the actual tools and measurable results.
