I haven't been able to browse the javascript web for weeks now, I miss watching music videos on youtube most of all.. I'll have so much stuff to catch up on over the winter, kind of looking forward to that.

Summer downpour with a cup of lapseng. I finished Hommage To Catalonia yesterday, I wonder what I should read next. I'm eyeing the copy of Wisniewski-Snerg's Robot in the shelf right now.

Made a sort of lambda in #uxntal.

A very nice looking spaceship just came to anchor by our side.

@sigrid I have a SDL question for you, I was wondering if instead of wrinting to uxn_screen.pixels, we couldn't write directly to the sdl_texture, the pixel data is the same format I think, do you think it'd be possible to not have to allocate memory for the pixels that way?

Sometime since the last time I visited Github, they've removed the ability to browse without Javascript. I have PRs pilling up, but I can't handle them. I think it's time to move the webring off of there. I'll migrate it to sourcehut as soon as I can.

Wondering if I shouldn't perhaps call it a day or not, the working file size happens to be exactly 11'245 bytes long, or 0x2bed. Aight, I'll take that as a sign.

Spending our days hiking through the old logging trails is doing a number on my footwear. They're utterly fucked, we're only barely over mid-july, and we won't be running across nothing like a shoes store for weeks(months?). I've tried duct tape, but the shells at low tide cuts right through.

The year is 2024, you need a net terminal gene to access the netsphere, Davinelulinvega can't cross the river.

I find it's curious that the tail recursive implementation of fib is smaller than the non tail-recursive. Is that normal?

Sail to the middle of absolutely nowhere, and you can be sure that someone is going to row up to your boat and talk your ears off about the latest news drama happening in the city.

"Pagans looked to the natural world for meaning. Christian identity, on the other hand, was manifest in human-made consecrated structures."

"Mathematical elegance, conceptual simplicity, and their companion, brevity of an unambiguous reference manual, are a condition sine qua non for any product reliable enough to attain stability. Needless to say, this sober message is unacceptable. Simplicity requires hard work to be obtained and education for its appreciation, and complexity sells much better."

@jakintosh I just read your july 10th entry on your blog, and it got me thinking. Have you ever heard about the various parallel logic programming experiments? I think that it might be of interest here: http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/articles/the-joy-of-concurrent-logic-programming.txt

I don't know what I expected

"More generally, be aware that relying on license terms is relying on the legal system, and by extension the government, even if nobody ever actually goes to court. Illegal codes, codes that condone or encourage illegal behavior, or codes that go against public policy, may not be enforceable through courts or other administrative bodies. If enforcing any part of your code through legal terms is patently impossible, other hooks may still be available."
