It's funny shirt design time! The women's tank top comes in four colors; the T-shirt in six. All have this lovely "Misgender the Patriarchy" text in the trans pride flag colors. Be one of the first 25 people to make an order of at least $50 (two shirts!) and use code EARLYCUSTOMER for 15% off.

entirely misinterpreted what this was about initially, but I *did* just think of an AI disassembly project you could get behind, namely the one where we have the AIs messily disassemble the nearest techbros

we have found the next project for @spicyskye.bsky.social to work on

I'm remembering the days when I was part of the effort trying to reverse-engineer Chrono Cross on chronocompendium.com. Our notes *absolutely* looked 10x worse than these. If I were helping a project like that again, I *still* wouldn't use AI for it.

X ΘΔ (Giant Tyrant Overlord)@xkeeper.net

from the datacrystal nonsense a bit ago, the person behind it finally posted their raw notes (along with a big angry allcaps "don't ever use this for tcrf" note 😄)... and like, if they had just posted these in the first place, everything would've been gravy! these look fine!

Now, that said, I'm not in the "no AI for anything, ever" camp - my standpoint is that if you know what the hell you're doing, AND can write your own code to handle testing what AI puts out with a ridiculous amount of coverage, it's useful to speed your work up. Those are both high bars to clear!

My personal usage? I'll use it as kind of a smart copy-and-paste/auto-complete at most (for example, in the process of trying to port the C99 code in Crafting Interpreters into C++20, where I could verify that yes, the new version of the lines match up with the old versions).

@orionstellarisvt.bsky.social this is your 1:30pm wake-up call, if you wanted to get a stream in this week 🙃

@marisa.sayachan.org this sounds like a good way to make sure you have enough money (don't do this)

#oregon vs. #usc Down to 2:11 left in the game, TD Ducks! (Davison rushed it in from the 2.) Guys, I... I don't think USC is going to remain undefeated after today.

#oregon vs. #usc USC turns the ball over on downs... at midfield... down 7, with 7:15 left in the game. What in the *actual* fuck was that play-calling. (Go Ducks.)

Because the world (or, at least, Argentum OS) needs a cleanroom implementation of a Hypercard clone... that has been the project for the last couple of days. I, uh, kinda forgot just how many words HyperTalk (or, in this case, its reworked-for-normal-x64-hardware rehash, Esperanza) has.

So, instead, I'm doing this in a rather odd fashion: Outer switch: as in the book, by first character. Middle switches: by length of potential token! This lets me break apart a *lot* of similar-prefix tokens into different buckets. Inner switches: as in the book's second tier, by second character.

There *may* be some keywords that require a fourth layer - as I said, there are a *lot* of them to check through - but this reduces the depth this has to process through, improving code readability. (It might be slower than just nesting to ugly depths, but I figure the tradeoff here is worthwhile.)

I am vaguely looking forward (ha!) to a three-level-deep nested switch statement that weighs in at probably 1.5kloc. (For the record, using the online copy of "Crafting Interpreters" - craftinginterpreters.com/contents.html - as a basis for the engine, with liberal changes due to using C++.)

Into the weeds: Q: so why am I using a three-level-deep nested switch for this? A: If I modeled this strictly on the clox nested-switch trie walker in "Scanning on Demand", unfortunately, we have keywords that are ambiguous out to *nine* characters (mouseDown vs. mouseDownInPicture, specifically).

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated, especially since I just found out yesterday I have a bone infection in my lower jaw (fortunately I don't need assistance with *those* expenses) and woke up this morning to my lower jaw having swollen up even worse despite antibiotics.
