Maybe I'll remember to hop online more often for a while.
Also, I'm back on the job market if anyone's looking for a C/Rust hacker.
Gonna finally take some time to get familiar with common lisp too.
Recently had the fun experience of merging two C codebases at work and in the process implemented a sort of encapsulation and split high-level vs low-level control/logic. It's probably not the greatest implementation of these designs, but for a hand-rolled design, I'm pretty happy it works as well as it does.
Might have to look at setting aside time to write something up I can share. If y'all happen to know any good references for this sort of thing, I'm interested.
@OpenComputeDesign It's pretty simple, though not always logical:
* Insurance is sometimes state mandate gambling, sometimes just gambling that you won't need a large amount of money to fix certain problems
* laws are about control, always were, but some of them are hard to argue against
* credit score was likely initially meant as an objective measure of loan risk, and just became a good enough metric for other shit, like how social security numbers are terrible at their current use
Hot damn, I saw notifications blowing up while on vacation, pretty wild few days it seems
Had a great vacation with my girlfriend though. And then discovered that a pipe sprung a leak when I was getting ready to go back to work. This week's been way more stressful than normal
Alcohol's a shitty drug, it's too bad bourbon and other liquors are so tasty.
However, muscimol (from amanitas) is pretty heckin' great for relaxing without a hangover
@OpenComputeDesign Meant to read/reply to this sooner, but yeah, it's astonishing how frequently the only response to certain kinds of differences people can think of is denigration/violence.
Even in the rarer cases where such means are justified, they should be used with caution, since you can easily end up not only validating their stance, but turning them into a martyr too.
Following on this: the past few days I've been rewriting a build system. Rather than take the time to write out all the target combinations by hand, even with a good dash of magic macros, I settled on writing a Python script that generates another POSIX Makefile. So there's more process spawning than is ideal, but now it's like 10 lines of declarations or less to add new build configs that track dependencies and updates automatically when needed.
All POSIX and Python3.
If you happen to have the opportunity, I highly recommend spending at least a weekend in Marfa or Alpine in West Texas. They're beautiful smaller towns with lots of art, walkable streets, and gorgeous state/national parks only around an hour drive away.
Going to be taking my ladyfriend out there next weekend for a 4day vacation.
I love the Marfa lights in particular, where it's so dark it feels like the world disappears, with few reminders that anyone else exists.
