  • radiation-hardened-quine

    A robust quine program that works even after any one character is deleted.

  • If I'm following https://github.com/mame/radiation-hardened-quine#abnormal-us... correctly, that's exactly what he did!

  • quine-relay

    An uroboros program with 100+ programming languages

  • If there were more languages, then it'd be `console.log("System.out.println({python_source})")`, etc. The problem then becomes quoting and escaping inner quotes. I managed to avoid the problem by using both single and double quotes, and relying on Python's `repr` also giving valid JS strings, but if I had to add one more language I'd have problems.

    I still think the Quine Relay is a tour de force, but for different reasons. It's not 128 quines in different languages, but an incredibly robust system for quoting and escaping strings in 128 different languages.

  • Or this one [3] that calculates pi by estimating its own surface area.

    Or this one [4]. It's a lovers quarrel, written simultaneously in C and English. It's incredible, seriously, read it.

  • Here is something quite similar I've just made, but in the image domain :

    It's a tool POC to steganographically encode an image into itself to make it crop resistant.
