   At TPAC in 2017, someone asked me, what would I do if I could work on what I was really interested in and cared about? I sheepishly admitted that, well, I'd like to work on social networks as a distributed virtual world / game.

   I thought I'd be laughed out of the room. Instead, it turned out that almost everyone I was working with had background in that space. Even the ocap stuff I'd been studying came largely from Electric Communities Habitat.

   That gave me the courage to pursue #Spritely.

     @cwebber Just got my first awareness of Spritely.

     Looked fun until I saw you're using Racket. Then it looked *really* fun!

     @ptvirgo I'm glad you're excited! The first independently runnable demo is available, and I think it's also very readable Racket code: https://gitlab.com/spritely/golem

     In https://www.crockford.com/ec/ he connects Electric Community with E for capabilities. Do those have a direct connection? I'm wading thru the articles, haven't seen it yet, but I might have missed it or not gotten there yet. It's all interesting anyway, just curious about that angle...figure some direct connection probly exists....

     @bhaugen There is a direct connection. @cwebber talks about it on hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?… and there are some links (like the one you quoted!) in the shownotes.
