You youngsters with your 'devops' and 'continuous integration'. I deployed websites with an FTP client and the sheer force of my will. And let me tell you, your lack of FTP scars is showing 🤣

@nixCraft BTW, I tried to find affordable punch tape writers and readers, and the tape itself, but alas, can't find anything. Could be a cool demo for the kids.

@bonkers @nixCraft If it's for a demo, maybe music roll can do ? There are small music boxes that use music rolls.

@expiredtoken @nixCraft interesting, but it needs still a lot of craftsmanship to build a puncher and a reader. I was hoping the mechanical part was still available without having to DIY everything.

@PlukkiePanda @expiredtoken @nixCraft yeah, I've been following him, the guy with crazy music machines :)

@expiredtoken @bonkers @nixCraft Reminds me that women have been programming for thousands of years, by way of writing and following lines of crochet code. It's even mathematical!
