 @vertigo I've been reading Bit Of History, and in it, it mentioned TinyTalk. The book just says a few words about it, but it was a sort of OOP for Z80/6502. All I could find was a two pager PDF about it. I was wondering if you had ever heard about this? seen the specs of the implementation? I don't know many people who would be familiar with this so I'm asking you. "Avec la raison, le souvenir me revint et je vis que même aux pires jours, quand je me croyais parfaitement et entièrement malheureux, j’étais cependant, et presque tout le temps, extrêmement heureux. Cela me donna à réfléchir." La Folie Du Jour, Maurice Blanchot https://paste.sr.ht/blob/875d5acbd3fe6bd704bc6078972ff16abaf90cdf After making a toy REPL yesterday, I realized that I could use it to pass device arguments, like screen drawing functions to evaluate, so I pushed it a bit further. Pressing ctrl+p, evaluates the file, selecting a bit of text evaluates only the selection: left | bicycle Altogether, left(11kb) and bicycle(6kb) make for a 17kb creative coding canvas. @wim_v12e Spotted a pretty awful bug with Beetbug this morning, I've fixed it. It passes the opcode test again, sorry :bloat: Learnt about Heron's method to finding square roots this morning.  @neauoire when I was pretty young, like 9, my dad taught me this so he could show me off as his precocious calculator to his engineer friends and I still hate math to this day.

Contacted StrangeLoop with some background information on Hundred Rabbits, and what sort of projects I would love to speak about. They immediately replied that this was a good fit for the "Strange Software" track. Yeah okay, I can do strange. :mocking: Made a little companion REPL to Left, select a bit of code and press ctrl+p to have it assembled and evaluated in the Bicycle window. It's a good way to learn how #uxntal translates to bytes, and vice-versa. Understanding enums in #uxntal. Or, the recurring "why is the device page overlapping the zero-page" question. "Microprogramming is a wasteland of time and too dependent on the technology of implementation." --Gordon Bell Inspecting the boat, we found this beautifully corroded hose-clamp, you can hardly tell what it is anymore. We're taking the whole thing out and putting a new thru-hull.

Trying out plastic(Marelon) thru-hulls for the first time, we've also upsize the drain so it'll stop clogging up whenever a bit of mud falls down the drain. It's the anchor locker drain. -- Sent from Pino's bowels @neauoire There's a Project Farm video about hose clamps on YouTube, but the conclusion is "Breeze" brand hose clamps are the best. The 6600 series is 100% 316 stainless. Added a few notes to the #uxntal page on how to quote/unquote opcodes and functions. "Quoting" here means to defer an operation, as in in, evaluating it later. It's doubles as a little introduction to Uxn's self-modification patterns. @neauoire I'm learning uxntal on the weekends, and the new notes are helpful. Thanks! I still don't quite understand the use-case of leaving unexecuted opcodes on the stack though. In your example you use use quoting to apply an operation recursively to an array, but I imagine that a method could be written which gives identical results but does not use quoting. If that's the case then what's the advantage of writing unexecuted opcodes to the stack? There must be a reason. What am I missing? Still wasting my time experimenting with arity checking in uxntal. I feel like there's something there to explore, but I can't say I really found what it is yet.

 @neauoire I suspect it's impossible to guarantee. You'll either disallow legal programs or let illegal ones through. https://youtu.be/wwCX_ywSqFc?t=669 :moar: holy fuckin shit @renaudbedard GET IN HERE :drake_dislike: home is where you relax and consume  @neauoire Labor + torium = room for work Exploratorium = room for exploring (also a name for a museum in SF) Experitorium = room for experiences / experiments When I veto applicants to the webring I often end up having to check the author's twitter profile, and fuuuuck that site, I'm glad almost everyone I know left that place. Each time I end up on there I feel like Twitter takes a big shit in my head.

 @neauoire @neauoire For me it's: cool art, memes and a sprinkle of poetry. Can't tell if my internal filter blocks all of the negative posts out or if the platform actually provides the content that I enjoy. |
