Quinn Wilton's presentation at Code BEAM Europe 2023 delves into how she combines anarcho-transhumanist principles with modern technology, using Elixir and Nerves. Highlighting her quest to rediscover the joy of programming against professional burnout, Quinn shares practical steps in embedding a NFC chip in her hand, initially for replacing electronic keys. She then explores the potential of this chip by attempting to load 'Bonsai Buddy,' a 90s virtual assistant, onto it. Through this, she discusses the technical challenges, software and hardware intricacies, and socio-political implications of biohacking.
