you just called rock 'n rye a boring flavor??

it's one of the regulars here i'd say. in my head i see cola/rye/cream as the "always available" at convenient stores etc


Yeah I guess you're right.. Rock-N-Rye and Cream Soda are actually pretty great.

a bit cute that you interacted with the 1 AI thread. there are other threads!

".fla / XFL import — This is the one I’m most proud of. You can open your old Flash files. As far as I know, this is the only open-source tool that functions as a full authoring environment and can actually import .fla files. Not just play them back — edit them."

as to when they share the source, idk!


Great.

I'd feel better if he had some other core contributors, but this is a great start.


I'm sure we've all met an unhappy teacher. As well, ain't no way you're pulling me back into an office ;)


update the etymology then on wikipedia with your reference

that current etymology is what we’re all talking about obv


i use https://github.com/sirmalloc/ccstatusline and when im around 100k tokens im already thinking about summarizing where we're at in the work so i can start fresh with it

it is pretty rare for me to compact, even if i let it run to 160k

just realized how i wouldn't think about using ccstatusline based a quick glance at its README's images. looks like this for me:

idk how I haven't crossed a lisp with square brackets but dang I am sorta stunned at how I've never even envisioned it? thanks


No shift key needed for square brackets!

Curl was a proprietary Lisp that {curly brackets} and was designed in the 1990s to build web applications.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curl_(programming_language)


I've always found OCaml's (* ... *) comments annoying, because it needs shift for both characters. But I suspect it's easier to type on a french keyboard.

Knuth solves the bracket issue by redefining his keymap to swap () with [] and + with = (macos keymap files found at the bottom of this page: https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs.html )


In high school I tried spec'ing a lang that excluded shift key usage... fun times.


Keyboards of early MIT systems[1] and Lisp Machines[2] had brackets (parentheses) and square brackets on the same key where square brackets and curly brackets are on modern keyboards.

There's a few lispy languages that support using square brackets as an alternative to parens. Racket even has curly braces too.

The above really reminds me of tcl, though, which uses square brackets to force evaluation of the command they wrap.


don't little kids sometimes eat play-doh, bugs, crayons, etc? new experiences/curiosity i'd imagine


I land on this thread to ctrl-f "taste" and will refresh and repeat later

That is for sure the word of the year, true or not. I agree with it, I think


it was up to 3 when I first posted

it's at 10 now. note: the article does not say "taste" once


18, i'll stop. cheers


they explicitly had an opinion about true color, right in the article we’re discussing
