Every time I peek at the code from something by Mr. Endoh, I end up down a rabbit hole and learn something. I look forward to what this one brings. Probably looking into this Piet language: https://www.dangermouse.net/esoteric/piet.html
Another awe-inspiring quine of his, from about a decade ago, is the 128-language ouroboros quine:
The last one is astonishing: "Okay, this one is really wild. Piet J. (yes, that's his real name) was browsing art in a small gallery and saw a work which reminded him of a Piet program. He spoke to the artist, who claimed to know nothing about the language. Piet took a photo of the artwork (left), converted it into a clean image file using close colours from the Piet palette (right), and tried running it.
It ran!..."

If you like quines with a visual output like this, I recently taped out an self-reproducing ASIC which displays it's own Verilog source over VGA.

Naive question:what it actually is .and what is usecase
rashkov 4 hours ago [-]
a quine is a program that prints its own source code. The usecase is to inspire

Could use vonori / conformal map[0][1] in order to support the decomposition of a complex problem into individual parts/piet blocks. aka go from base 2 gotos to base N gotos.
