asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: considering that ada uses no peculiar ('functional') abstractions, and is pretty much a c with 'bdsm'-restrictive pointer mechanics and hard bounds checking - the nock thing is not in the mix

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for a very narrow 'worx'

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: how does this expand wot ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu et al: i'ma have to link to the old logz,
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fexprs incur no penalty or otherwise problem in an interpreted lang, or, for that matter, a proper lispm

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i am familiar with 'law french' aha
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't know the fella at all, but he appears to read my www, that's all i know.

asciilifeform: Apr 14 13:09:53 <trinque>what, you don't think the best and brightest work at the NSA, I mean the subcontractor for the NSA, I mean the sub-sub... << my current understanding is that 'best and brightest' don't actually work anywhere, they sit in arkakao and eat ice cream with mircea_popescu et al
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: similar.
mircea_popescu: gets restated periodically, hence mircea_popescu: anyway, freenode does not enjoy any degree of tmsr trust afaik.

mod6: mircea_popescu: anyway, re: retooling to ada; I think my overall thought was, get v054 complete, in its classic form. Then move along to ada perhaps.

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well the tools aren't there to replace it yet.
BingoBoingo: AHA! mircea_popescu has a side effect of supporting the entrenchment of English through Eulora!

asciilifeform: let's try different profession. can mircea_popescu infer anything from the fact that mr joe programmer writes entire project for 200 bux ?
asciilifeform: so mircea_popescu proposes that i cannot infer anything interesting from the fact that chick fucks for 20bux ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no i meant anonymous you-can-be-anybody-so-long-as-you-got-dough sort of thing
