our dear forum name is pretty apropos here, as lol at writing an os in c/c++, setting oneself up for failure right there still no success at doing something saner, but the security circus does take its toll over time

if it's offensive that's only because there are so many programmers doing lovely work for pay cf: the english frame riots

programming is necessary to modern society and petty cool. the fact that capitalism makes tech culture lovely is a fault of capitalism, not programming

people who talk about Lisp as a high level or functional language have never dealt with ldb or loop most real world Lisp is imperative and/or OO, only students doing coursework write code functional-style or with needless recursion

someone wrote an NTP client in Lisp and I think a friend is going to port it to Genera so he doesn't need to set the clock after turning on his XL1201 after all, almost every IC on the densely packed 40cm by 40cm CPU card is socketed, except the loving Mostek MK48-series "timekeeper" which doesn't have a user-replaceable battery and isn't rechargeable at least Genera doesn't really use the timekeerper's nvram for anything, unlike Sun hardware, but at least Sun socketed the drat chips

eschaton posted:people who talk about Lisp as a high level or functional language have never dealt with ldb or loop the discussion was about lisps impact, it was defined in 1958, and most of what know counts as high-level or functional owes a great debt to it, it was the best example of high-level functional programming for many many years its lack of purity was, additionally, probably a happy accident, since pure functional programming remains even less relevant than lisp

the problem with lisp is all the stupid parentheses!! surely we can fix this problem https://sourceforge.net/p/readable/wiki/Solution/

# ? Apr 16, 2017 13:28 |

must note again that that suggestion is in the original '58 paper overall quite safe to dismiss people who complain loudly about the parenthesis as bikeshedders, if nothing else because most lisps have far more serious issues than syntactic details (possibly excepting clojure, i will admit that i don't know it well enough, but everyitng i have ever seen of it has seemed fantastically reasonable) Cybernetic Vermin fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Apr 16, 2017 |

akadajet posted:I need a system with a rub out key even if it needs a sizable fraction of an hour of hardware maintenance per hour of uptime? this recycling company got a Symbolics 3640 in (someone just dropped it off!) and they started putting boards on eBay, so I contacted them about whether they had the whole system they said "sure, want us to power test it for you?" never do this, Symbolics used a cheap vendor for the PSUs and they can fail in ways that damage the system, they need careful recapping and testing before you even attempt to run the system also you can't just sub in a modern PC PSU because they need a lot of amps at interesting voltages, like both +5.2V and -5.2V for the ECL bits

Ator posted:the problem with lisp is all the stupid parentheses!! as a junior junior coding learner (3rd grade), once I learn why there were parens around expressions, it wasn't hard to understand. getting that explanation, and why an expression was different from a special form was different from a macro and why there are at least six different kinds of equality *was* hard to understand.
