Normally we downweight posts that just have a Part 1 and then stop, but this one actually delivers the goods:

https://thingspool.net/morsels/page-11.html (part 2)

https://thingspool.net/morsels/page-12.html (part 3)

https://thingspool.net/morsels/page-13.html (part 4)

https://thingspool.net/morsels/page-14.html (part 5)

(and keeps going!)

(Will be continued in Part 13)

It will take me to read this book, but I love it! I'll be following along in https://github.com/mthom/scryer-prolog (written in Rust) so one should be able to take these techniques into Rust game programming.

Assume you are the author, I found your website is such a treasure. I couldn't believe your website wasn't listed on HN before. Next time please post on HN when you write.

I am not, just a huge fan of prolog and works of passion like this.

+1, this entire website is a fascinating find. Interestingly, in terms of formatting, all the long-form texts on the site are centered (as opposed to left align). I wonder what's the logic behind this decision (surprisingly, it is not at all annoying to read, though).

Maybe change the link to the index?: https://thingspool.net/morsels/list.html

It's better for the linked article to have substantive, interesting information on it, not just a list of links. HN is already a list of links, so that's too much indirection.

you should consider the opposite to push the author's website and force them to continue ;)

We optimize for reader satisfaction, not author satisfaction—but that's probably in the author's best interest too!
