I asked this of ChatGPT:

"If you have access to the body of work that's been published on the internet, especially the NetLogo Modelling Commons, can you summarize James Steiner's approach to coding in NetLogo?"

The response was not surprising in content--I know my own style pretty well--but it was surprising in its depth and... perceptiveness? Here's the wrap up"

"

✨ Steiner Signature

If you want your NetLogo project to “feel Steiner-ish,” do this:

  1. Pick one idea to illustrate.

  2. Add a playful, discoverable UI with mouse tricks.

  3. Break out helpers into tiny reporters or includes.

  4. Annotate the code like a mini-tutorial.

  5. Package under CC and push it back to the Commons.

"
This feels a little like a horoscope, in that there are elements that may apply to many NetLogo models, but still. Some of the specific call outs (like my tendency to encapsulate constants in reporters and include in-world mouse interaction) feel very specific.

Has anyone else tried this?
