I feel that would be rather fitting

But first, we need to make the computer so it can automatically increase it's memory when it needs some :P

So we can spawn game of life inside our simulation of it

Would that be a quine?

Or self hosting?

That would require building a mechanism that enables the construction of additional OTCA metapixels and/or makes it possible to change the rules per cell.

Either of which would probably be a greater research project and accomplishment than Tetris in GoL.

@Mego Can you review my PR?

I just kinda wanted to streamline that bullet point a bit

thx

I'm actually positive Objective C and Fortran would work but I'm only about 60% on D working

C++ would have to be compiled without exceptions

Yes but that's in libstdc++ or whatever which we can't link anyways

-ffreestanding -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti I believe is all that's needed

The problem with exceptions is that they also need ABI stuff in addition to linking to the standard library. We'll probably never get that working
