We are soon to release 7.0.1 and will pin something new, so maybe we'll do this one!

Yeah, that's one way to put it!

Sure! NetLogo was designed to be easy enough to use for children to get started with it, but it is also powerful enough that it used widely in professional research. Happy to answer any more specific questions you have.

Short explanation:
Sound waves → make plate vibrate → sand jumps around. At certain points, the sine waves cancel out → sand stops there

In the model, you can set "nodes" where there is no vibration. For a real plate, these depend on the shape. e.g.: youtube.com/shorts/jSefO...

Great! If you set CORS permisions on your site to allow embeds from netlogoweb.org, you could then embed it in an iframe. Alternatively, you can export the whole thing to a standalone html file which you can host yourself without the CORS issue. You could just link it & people can open in a new tab

Very cool! Did you know you could embed a runnable version on your website with NetLogo Web?

We're biased, but we recommend #NetLogo :)

As for arguments, though, the automatic visualization and immediate interactivity really help with verifying your model is actually doing what you intend.

Very cool model! I'm implementing a #NetLogo version, and I have a question: is there a real distinction between h_in vs h_out and γ_in vs γ_out, or could there just be 4 arbitrary traits? Since any link can be harmful or helpful based on harm/help ratio, the traits seem arbitrary.

Very true! We are tool pluralists ourselves. There is a python extension to run python within NetLogo if that is ever something you want to do.

We'd be interested in seeing the code!

I doubt we'll get funding of a billion dollar company, but if you give us a donation, we'll happily help with your cellular automaton! www.netlogo.org/donate/

What advanced features do you need? We're always looking to raise the ceiling of what NetLogo can do

When cats are confidently teaching NetLogo, you know we've built something truly accessible. Modeling literacy for every learner!
