BrainHub and BrainRunner - finally over the hump
I’ve started this post maybe twenty times now, since before Christmas, and each time I keep putting it off, thinking “I’ll just blog when I have this next bit done.” But each “next bit” is followed by something else, and then something else, into infinity.
The brain scope is growing: BrainHub, BrainRunners, Brains
I’ve been MIA for a while, I know. I haven’t stopped working on SnailLife - I just wanted to get to some sort of completion with the brain refactoring phase before talking about it. Now, however, I realize there won’t be any completion for a long while and I may as well post an update.

Snaily Updates, Nov 10 - Family trees and inbreeding coefficient
- I did some research on snail ailments. This particular page was especially useful. Though SnailLife snails are not aquatic, some of these still seem very relevant: http://applesnail.net/content/various/snail_disease.php
- Also did research on inbreeding in snails and complications it could cause. Apparently one commonly observed side effect is shell thinning. I then did some reading on finding the inbreeding coefficent and how to calculate it.
- Looked into Google Visualization API to display the family trees and started a test implementation.
- Started actually using Taiga.io, I’ve been wanting to try it out for a while.
