breeding a cat that works on unsigned integers
@jonny look start with booleans. cats always say no, but i'm unclear they understand what yes means.
@dysfun If I ever make a programming language bools will be true only, in your honor
@jonny funny thing, but a number of people in the theorem prover community think we should stop using bools and replace them with proofs and contradictions
@dysfun @jonny makes sense; nothing in math is true or false, only consistent or inconsistent.
@dysfun @jonny (or underspecified for the determination of its consistency. or, uh, some worse things that can occur in special cases...)
@feonixrift @jonny we tend to think of it as booleans erasing what they pertain to :)
@dysfun @jonny so booleans are a form of money?
@feonixrift @jonny you want coin-operated computation? we can do that! https://www.idris-lang.org/docs/idris2/current/base_docs/docs/Data.Fuel.html
@dysfun @jonny :blobsweats: I don't think I have time to esolang rabbithole today.
@feonixrift @jonny it's not esoteric, it's just type theoretic
@jonny that's called a fox
@jonny I wonder, if this heppens less with double cats. 🤔
