"Nothing Oriented Programming" (NOP). Where the goal is to achieve minimal enlightenment by writing as little possible code: no dynamic memory allocation, no thousand files of glue, no includes, no objects. Write nothing, be happy. Even applied it to the logo, zero effort.

@NOTimothyLottes Would be nice to talk a full presentation about this topic, but people want me to show cool tech and pretty pixels instead. Maybe one day.

I will save your image for that day (if I get approval to use it), since Twitter search is super bad.

@NOTimothyLottes I like this, given I never write code any more.

sadly i am still a grumpy git.

@NOTimothyLottes Once in a while people need to be reminded to stop the bloat, understand the machine guts and be self aware about productive process

@NOTimothyLottes Folks, they're calling it "computer oriented programming". It's where you stop trying to impress peers and just tell the computer the best way to do things

@NOTimothyLottes Many games used to be like that, at least the ones without dynamic content, mods, etc...
|
|
|
|
Most of the stuff I worked on on PSX and Dreamcast basically just loads big files with everything pre-allocated and aligned properly at the final location, ready to use.

@NOTimothyLottes I was calling it "disoriented programming" just the other day.

@NOTimothyLottes @Jonathan_Blow i designed a language Beads, which uses a graph DB, has no memory allocation, super modular, approaches this minimalism as close as humanly possible, but billable hour / job security seeking programmers refuse to try it

@NOTimothyLottes Can teach it in abstinence-only programming classes!
