@neauoire @floatvoid hmm Luneur x Woolietale (also, need to push a patch to fix Luneur, apparently I forgot run takes an argument and didn't update my examples)

AI is such an effective tool for making you feel the impluse to give up on learning something. I usually resolve it by setting my date range to 2000-2019 in hopes it filters out the sub-junk articles. Like, I couldn't imagine how it feels to be someone that was never taught how to judge the quality of information, how to find information, and trying to start up something.

@neauoire reminds me of my motivation behind "and NULL". and was chosen to be confusing, purposefully kept lowercase to confuse a human reader (possibly machine readers as well). NULL was picked for it's tendency to confuse computer system. A value misinterpreted as empty when it may actually represent a value (databases interpreting the name Null as the value NULL) or misinterpreted as a value when it's actually empty (JavaScript's typeof null == "object").

@neauoire I have not see that, and I love it. Reminds me of the website that sends back a fake segmentation fault message alongside its webpage.

Programming language idea: borrow checker, but it requires that all values are boxed with at least two references at all time. Both references must have write operations to them, otherwise the program is rejected for not having enough action at a distance.

Programming language idea: You sit quiet in the wilderness taking note of the bird songs around you. These songs encode some sort of program. Assemble your program into a new bird song. Sing it where you recorded your notes. The call you get back is the result of your program.

Programming language idea: lay down somewhere comfortable, close your eyes and focus on a setting, and fall asleep. This language is nondeterministic so you man not run the intended program.

Unfortunately the standard for this language exposes a side channel attack where the mind executing can be coaxed unto leaking information about the dream and even having it modified.

@neauoire Bruh, I can't believe Left supports tag wrapping but bloody codium does. It's made with web shit, da fuck 🥴

@neauoire I think what gets me is that it isn't and out of the box thing. I don't even think lighttable had that and it's whole gimmick was web development...

@neauoire On thing for catlangs I find interesting, is also how much emphasis they put on the idea of "task in a context". I think this is why lexical variables can flop badly. They are a highly restrictive, low-reusability context. You often end up doing something like>a >b >c ( bind c b a )a c f ( call f which needs a and c)b c g ( call g which needs b and c)It ends up C-but-worse. I think that style of OOP you do with uxn where you select an active target kinda reflect this idea of "task in a context".

Thinking about the absurd fact that out of all the UI frameworks I've messed with, the only ones I know with decent complex text layout support is Electron and Godot 🙃

Me: "do we care about Arabic?"Group: "Yeah"Me: "Okay, our only options are Godot 4 or Electron nothing else is an option."

But for real tho, shout out to the Aribic and Farsi communities within Godot for pushing so hard for CTL support in Godot. All the text looks and feels so much better cause of yalls.

@neauoire @lobo It sent me cackling for a solid minute. That is the weirdest term I have ever heard for listens.

@neauoire @rek hm, I can't seem to get sdcv to actually do anything besides say "Nothing similar to , sorry :(". Followed the instructions provided and have the Collaborative dictionary installed, but doesn't seem to do anything?The ability to find synonyms and approximate searches would definitely be nice. Downside of a physical dictionary is that it only helps when I'm close to the initial stem of the word. Some words are a real struggle for me to connect sound to letter.

@neauoire @rek I typo'd "stardict" as "startdict" and I just couldn't see it. This spelling blindness is why my proofreading process involved dumping my text into a robotic TTS cranked up to 500% speed.
