Mostly Bits Newsletter - Issue #98
Tony's Pick
I recently learned about ternary computers, which are based on ternary logic and use 3-state trits instead of 2-state bits - commonly -1, 0, or 1. There's apparently some renewed interest here as a means if improving performance and efficiency of today's AI? Idk, I just love the word "trits".

As someone who grew up subsisting primarily on point-and-click adventure games, I was excited to see the inaugural Adventure Game Fan Fair taking place in Tacoma, WA in July. A bunch of the classic Sierra game designers will be there, as well as some newer designers demoing upcoming games.
If you are willing to drop a bit of cash, you can do an escape room with Al Lowe (Leisure Suit Larry) or Ken + Roberta Williams (founders of Sierra and creator of King's Quest, among other games).
