asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: imho could have saved much weight / complexity in 'eagle' if it were bolt-operated. but tbf i never yet had to 'invert this matrix'
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: cant resist to ask : when you shot the 'eagle', what kinda loads didja use ? according to the nitpicky critics, it gets fouled quickly unless fed fmj
asciilifeform: bvt: fixed!! and ty for the eagle eye.
asciilifeform: i'd bet swapping ~that~ to/from '80s 'fujitsu eagle's took most of those 6months !
asciilifeform: i dun see any confusion tho. in fact is why asciilifeform took exception : he is not the least insensitive to pain, but chained to this-here mountain side, and not in a position to avoid the eagle.
asciilifeform: this goes for the other eagle eyes likewise.
asciilifeform: eagle eyes, apeloyee . i dun suppose you have a constant time gcd up your sleeve ?
asciilifeform: a truly eagle-eyed nitpicker will of course notice that... (r13) gurer pnaabg or fhpu n guvat nf abazbqhyne rkcbaragvngvba va ssn, vg vf nyjnlf zbqhyb ng zbfg gur ovgarff!
asciilifeform: Framedragger: for some reason i am reminded of a cartoon i saw when i was very small, incidentally iirc it was made in some baltic country, where an eagle decides that frog is his son and threatens constantly to 'teach him to fly' by throwing from a cliff
asciilifeform: from what i can tell, 'eagle' actually used a similar algo in their (surprisingly good) autoroute.
asciilifeform: to give some vague idea of complexity, 'eagle cad' is of about ~same binary mass as trb.
asciilifeform: phf, mircea_popescu : that's aaaalmost all of it. you also need, in especially large schematics, to collapse buses into single, thick lines (in 'eagle', normally blue, but it does not matter, so long as distinct) and the leadouts from said buses are normal nets, which are marked.
asciilifeform: well-cracked eagle works for arbitrary-sized boards
asciilifeform: well, once one of us is locked in a room and fully reverses 'eagle', it's solved-solved.
asciilifeform: and in particular, '...a large bird such as an eagle or kite does not keep in the air mainly by moving its wings. It is generally to be seen soaring, that is to say balanced on a rising column of air. And even soaring becomes more and more difficult with increasing size. Were this not the case eagles might be as large as tigers and as formidable to man as hostile aeroplanes.'
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski, by all appearances, seems to live in a peculiar reaganite fantasy planet where su refugees cream their pants upon tasting delicious american mickeydee, and wax ecstatic while kissing bald eagle in the beak without having to watch out for kgb and no longer having to feed the bear or adjust the vodka level in the house reactor.☟︎
asciilifeform: here are 2 opportunities for eagle eyes!
asciilifeform: for some reason my first thought was the old viking punishment, 'making the bloody eagle'
asciilifeform: then again jurov is fortunate in not being personally concerned with this matter, just as eagle does not concern himself with muddy roads...☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ... there must be a reason for this. << same reason eagle doesn't have jet with afterburner in his arse
asciilifeform: decimation: lol, that thing rejects any 'eagle' board layout i offer it
asciilifeform: now, mircea_popescu does not need this instrument, eagle does not need a glider
asciilifeform: 'eagle', as i understand, is among the more impractical small arms ever sold
asciilifeform: re: eagle coins: if i'm found with 'toyota' and no titles, receipts, etc. and a dealership whined about being short of exactly one such...
