Is there any intersection between programming and magick?
I'm someone who hasn't quite taken the greenpill, somewhere between mundane and neophyte. I see a lot of similarities between the two, using arcane texts to invoke a command on something is a huge parallel.
Most normies would consider programmers to be the wizards of the modern world. I'm in that boat for the most part, but as an aspiring programmer I've got to wonder if there is any way to channel the occult into my programs. Are there any books that discuss this at length? I've downloaded parts of the library and haven't seen anything that addresses this as a larger observation.

I've managed to "tweak" GTAV by "tweaking" my pc.
There was a weird mission where I could only lose. It was a race in the hood part of Los Santos.
I was playing Franklin and I had a shitty car when all the other NPCs had sports cars.
I've played the mission two times and lost twice at the last place.
The "mission failed" screen said: "Franklin didn't win".
Very weird manipulations were required, and if technomancy exists, I'd say it's the hardest kind of magic there is.

Sup fams, just wanted to share a useful little webpage I've been using for a while now. What it does is it randomly pulls a card from the rider waite tarot deck and also has a few links to webpages that I usually use and an option to google search. This webpage is really useful for divination as whenever I have a question I can just refresh or open the page and usually get a relevant answer. I recommend adding it to your bookmarks for convenience. I personally use it as one of my homepages.
The 6 links on the bottom can be changed easily by replacing the links in the index page. The 6 images on the bottom can also be changed by adding the images you want to the images folder and then replacing the old image filenames in the index page with the new ones.

I'm also attaching what I've been using as a resource for Tarot interpretations.

Yes, but I do not consider myself to be strong or conditioned. Normal people (my friends) are always impressed and make comments like, "Wow! You're huge!" when I arm wrestle or do curls with them or take off my shirt in the locker room after workouts though. I have a master roshi pump.
I want to take it olympic serious though and gain 40 lbs of muscle, gain gymnastic ability, get 2/4/6/8 pl8 lifts, and run a decent half marathon.
I don't care if I'm being raped by 10 000 liches and demons, with 99 alien slave implants, I should be working for my goals 24/7 serious.
I have yet to hold myself to my own standards.

If you know how to program and you know how to magic, then you don't need suggestions from those who know only one or the other, since they'll have 0 legit responses… unless you go on /tg/ :^)
Numerological significant coding could use the fibonacci ratio in an ai or neuro network for possible sick results. Lines 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8… etc. Put a loop that creates the sequence for multiple functions, etc.
If you manage to create thoughtforms that work purely online/in computers let me know. If you manage to find the secret psy network of communications let me know, I've accessed that shit and there were some awesome people there. Or did I hallucinate that :^)

Computer engineer turned esoteric here. It's not really magic. Basically they turn info into an easily transmittable format and then turn it back into info on the other end. If you don't have the setup on the far end to interpret the info then all you have is useless highspeed gibberish. Computer processors work with billions of processes a second. 4mb internet can transmit 4 million ones and zeroes in one second. It's absolutely mind blowing but it isn't strictly speaking magic. You could probably conduct magic through the process. Similarly how alchemy is conducted via mundane chemistry at its core.

XParanormal detector works just as well for summoned spirits as it does wandering ghosts. Keep in mind: the language they know may not be english, thus the words they choose could mean different things than how you normally know them.

I remember back when I was on 4/x/ years ago, some random rich occult anon showed a thread a page of his spellbook. It looked less like an series of incantations and more like a visual set of mathematical equations. Math is the root of all programming, maybe you should try looking for sacred mathematics or something like that.

The thing is, I've heard of something like what >>93702 was talking about in regards to a "Psychic Internet" of sorts. It involved a specific sigil, and the last time I heard about it was when some thelema dude in the IRC I was in musing on the intent to make a trolling thoughtform with the express purpose of causing informational chaos in it.
