@nina_kali_nina APROPOS was most probably introducerad by JonL on ITS. Somewhere before 1978 or there about.

@sigismundninja Tror felsök handlar mest om att vara bekväm med debug verktyg, och miljön runt .. min gräns går vid svagt typade system, där kan jag bli gnällig...

Tror fan på forced negatives. Otroligt effektivt.
Efter att ha axelpressat tungt i 4 set.. så kan jag göra pikarnhävningar en halvtimme senare.

Efter 3 gånger 2 forced negatives.. så var det inte en chans och det känns som fan idag!
Gillar dessa videor.

@sigismundninja samma, men statistka typade språk (inbiten Lisp programmerare)

HERE COMES A MAN
TO LEAD YOU TO
YOUR VERY OWN MACHINE!
TOMMY, THE WHO

@theodoraward did you put the nail in the wall if you used a nail gun? Did you write the thing on paper if you used a typewriter? Auto-complete?

Technology is shit that allows people to do shit quicker. Irrelevant if it is good or bad. Technology has no morals or ethics.

@snapstories Etched .. I wish that it was etched much deeper .. Current Polish politicians reminder more of Putin and Trump than anything we once fought for.

#AK

Anyone remember when the @osi did a bit of election fraud? I do. #OpenSource #OSI

People complain more about #Debian essentially not saying anything about AI/LLM, than #Debian allowing non-free software into main.

C is like casting (ha!) pearls (pointers? stars?) before swine (squint and it sounds like C)..

Working on a new version of the #CADR simulator, did manage to get the old one into a state of FUBAR. But it has almost all the frills the real machine had. So working on unFUBARing it…

#LispM #LispMachine #CADR

@larsbrinkhoff let me know if I can help getting it working in CADR.

@larsbrinkhoff I have heard of it. Never seen traces of it.

@larsbrinkhoff AIM-006.. do we have sources of better scans?

Find many faults.

FPGA development .. Arty A7. Hate Vivado. Is there some sensible toolchain these days? Ideally for VHDL.

Asking for a #LispMachine #CADR friend.

Nobody has run (CC) in over 40 years ... #LispMachine revolution is nigh!i!i!i!i!i

Got (CC) and CC-TEST-MACHINE working for the #LispMachine #CADR between two usim instances. Found some actual bugs too… not that they ever triggered.

2026. And I still reach out to C .. yuck.🤮

I wonder when the @fsf bother updating TLS certificates. Been a running joke for many decades as to how uncaring they are about the infrastructure that they so gallantly sponsor.
