This is a really cool initiative. Are you planning to share your traffic metrics the same way?

This week, I Wrote a lossless decompression algorithm for my SBTCVM project.

To my knowledge, its possibly the first time a compressed image was ever displayed by a balanced ternary computer, virtual or not. :D

Its nothing too fancy, just a basic Run-length encoding, but it did cut the size of a test image from 1350 Nonets to just 434. 866 Nonets when you include the decoder.

This week, I and another teammate created a handbook for new team members. It is not intended to substitute having someone act as a shepard for new members. But, it is intended to help structure who we are, how we work together, and how to get stuff done.

That's definitely a resource that new team members appreciate -- but is overlooked at so many companies!
