Hype for the Future 62GEM: The Interesting Quirks of Maine

Overview While the State of Maine may not have any obvious cultural similarities with the African continent, nor even share the history of brutal treatment of slaves with Africa for much of overlapping history except possibly at the very beginning, the State of Maine is, oddly enough, the closest U.S. State to Africa as a continent. Unsurprisingly, though this refers to a different portion of the State of Maine, it is also the closest state in the Contiguous United States to the continent of […]

I'm not one to repost my own content. Better catch it the first time. I hate repeating myself.

Colin Woodbury - Quirks of Common Lisp Types

Using #GNU as Assembler (not Assembly, but the Assembler) and ld Linker to spit out a working BMP gradient image.

Yeah, you read it right. I'm not using
#Assembly to produce an image. I'm, instead, using Assembler directives and macros during compile-time to generate a binary file that happens to be a valid image (BMP) file.

File: tonishing.s (GNU Assembly file)

width = 320 height = 240 area = width * height _begin: .ascii "BM" .int fileSize .int 0 .int (_rasterdata - .) _infoheader: .int infoheaderSize .int width # width .int height # height .short 1 # planes .short 24 # bitcount .int 0 # compression .int 0 # imagesize .int 11811 # xpixperm .int 11811 # ypixperm .int 0 # colorsused .int 0 # colorsimp infoheaderSize = (. - _infoheader) _rasterdata: n=area+1 .rept height .rept width byten=((n*255)/area)&0xFF rn=(192*byten)/255 gn=(64*byten)/255 bn=(128*byten)/255 .byte rn,gn,bn n=(n-1) .endr .endr fileSize = (. - _begin)
File: run.sh (Shellscript)#!/bin/sh clear rm astonishing.bin rm tonishing.o as tonishing.s --64 -o tonishing.o # The pun is _astonishingly_ intended. strip -R .comment -R .note.gnu.property tonishing.o ld -n -x -s -N --oformat binary --unique=.note.gnu.property -o astonishing.bin tonishing.o magick identify -verbose astonishing.binI run the whole thing with... wait for it... #nodemon!

That's right: the tool intended for
#Nodejs hot-reloading, is being leveraged for GNU Assembly, which is itself being leveraged for compile-time instructions to produce a whole BMP image.
nodemon -e "s sh" --exec ./run.sh
While I have a
#Codeberg account, it's under my personal name where I published old projects from #GitHub, so I should do a second account for this pseudonym... but I'm not sure if this is against the Codeberg rules... So I'm posting the whole thing through a Calckey post instead.

🚨 Breaking News: Someone with a blog still hasn't made peace with Go, the programming language equivalent of a cardboard cutout. 🎉 After a decade-long battle, they're still heroically tilting at windmills, valiantly pointing out that Go's #quirks are...quirky. 🧐 Spoiler alert: Repetition is key in this epic saga of "Why won't Go change for me?"

Go is still not good

Previous posts Why Go is not my favourite language and Go programs are not portable have me critiquing Go for over a decade.
