phf: asciilifeform: well, in a sense
that it wasn't immediately obvious
that read-delimited-list is a fundamental concept
phf: true, or
the fact
that simple half a second "match opening paren" is pain, when you're
typing )))) in a row
phf: i
think it was a
thing in vogue at some point, back when fexprs were still in
the back of everyones minds
phf: i was looking at some mit cadr source and
they do some
totally insane stuff with parenthesis closing/opening
PeterL: as far as mathematical/scientific papers go, asciiifying
this one was not
too bad.
phf: trinque: i added your sig
to btcbase
jurov force feeds deedbot clay
tables
PeterL: that was essentially my
task, getting deedbot
to eat paper
BingoBoingo: <PeterL> deedbot does not eat vellum << He might if you ask
trinque
to feed it
to him
PeterL: I grok it much more now
than before
task
PeterL: but it also gave a chance
to
thouroughly read paper
PeterL: well, I copy/pasted out of pdf,
then with bare hands had
to fix just about every symbol (and for some reason it lost all
the "a"s)
shinohai: jurovs's favorite
tar.gz double-clicker from yesterday just asked me if he could just wget all his dependencies.
PeterL: yeah,
that makes sense.
mircea_popescu: PeterL for
the record,
traditionally "not equal" is marked as != not /= because ! is
the logical negation and also because / has other meanings ; while "less
than or equal" is =< or <= or somesuch, not _<. why invent unexpected symbology ?
trinque: guy even sent me a detailed email in response
to a query.
trinque: I encounter asciilifeform, phf, or gabriel_laddel
tracks semi-frequently :P
trinque: phf: my google
tentacles found
that in foreign lands
mircea_popescu: incidentally, at some point you gotta do
the "sorry for your lues"
trinque: heya phf, did you ever
take on
that sbcl arm port (and which arm was it) ?
☟︎ adlai: doncha remember, "sl_ seriouslt
this is not mircea ... i saved
the emails last year from when mircea donated for my
thinkpad"
adlai: mircea_popescu: cheers! now i,
too, can
tell #cat-v
that "there's no way
that's
the REAL mircea because ..."
mod6: trinque: good! looks
to be a busy week.
a111: Logged on 2014-12-11 01:52 asciilifeform: decimation: notice
that all known fpga manufacturers (xilinx, altera, lattice, a few others) have
the same business model
a111: Logged on 2015-06-17 13:17 asciilifeform: you can pick up a
textbook and write a dram controller for fpga from first principles - and it won't work. because, for starters, only a small number of output cells in
the chip can function on both rising and falling edge of clock cycle (what 'ddr' means) and only xilinx's closed
turd knows where
they are in
the routing fabric;
PeterL: ^ I converted lamport paper
to ascii,
took some hand cranking
to clean up after
the machine gave it a
try.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "Hillary Rodham-Clinton after putting
the few remaining working Americans in a basket labelled deplorables during
the weekend her legs buckled at Ground Zero, was discovered
to have earlier alleged
that many young American leftists were basement dwellers." << huh ?
shinohai: Yeah
those are definitely fix-a-flat boobs
shinohai: Although
this picture appears free of intravenous drugs.
phf: i kind of want
to read an entire book about
this Dirlewanger fella
a111: Logged on 2016-10-02 20:59 asciilifeform still floored by
the discovery
that mccarthy spoke fluent ru and argued with maths folks
there in '60s
mircea_popescu: they're pretty great
to watch ; sort-of like spending some
time with
the "the official
transcaucasia puskin poetry club" and
their literary criticism of last year's literary mags.
shinohai: Sign needs qr and "Monero accepted" at
the bottom
mircea_popescu: originally i
thought it was coke and speed
that came in 1/8 oz
shinohai knows of no other drug in local dialect referred
to by
that unit of measure
shinohai: The joys of listening
to your neighbors buy crystal meth using your sdr dongle
shinohai: ty mircea_popescu for your generous contribution
