ed a64cc163f1 docs(twitter): add 1651268028795961344 corpus (NOTimothyLottes DuskOS + Forth-as-asm)
5-post thread, 0 media, April 2023. NOTimothyLottes + @kenpex + @wadetb.
Links DuskOS (a Forth-as-asm-level-OS). NOTimothyLottes: Forth as
OLPC boot firmware has been done (openbios). 'Can make a custom
forth to binary in a few K. Bring up a runtime assembler in the
language and do anything fast and simple from that point, load
libraries, make system/dll C calls. 100,000x complexity reduction
in compiler toolchain size.' Seed of the whole Forth-in-runtime
workstream that shows up in the Jul 2026 threads (nasm-bootstrapped
4 KiB Linux Forth, micro macro-forth, etc).
