ZX Spectrum engine

A 3D engine I wrote when I was 13/14, recreated in Python.

Python recreations of a textured 3D engine and a masked-sprite scroller first written in Z80 in 1981-82: six programs on one menu, 1-bit at 256x192, integers only.

WorkSpec: the missing control layer for AI work

AI does not just change how work is produced. It changes how work must be specified, reviewed, constrained, and accepted. The problem is no longer output. The problem is control.

[Steve was] asked to rectify the bugs in the code, move it from a test environment to production, document the code and accounts used, and recommend the development tools that would suit the AI development that was taking place. Whilst the first two weeks was impressive, the achievement of these stretch goals was even more impressive, as we were left with a fully documented and running environment, which made it to market in tight deadlines.
