mats: its a lot less work, no grounds to clean up, and i don't need to whiten my teeth regularly
mats: do you like decaf?
gregory5: nonetheless, with working with Neo Latin, the avoidance of cognates is not always possible.
gregory5: the authors themselves are often thinking in temrs of cognates.
mats: there's a swiss water decaf process now that is really good
verisimilitude: Why whiten one's teeth?
gregory5: even in recent papal encyclicals.
verisimilitude: It's silly.
mats: if you don't care about caffeine i recommend trying it, allegro makes a decaf that i like

gregory5: in practice, though, this rule is inferior to "most frequent arguments first."
verisimilitude: That exact name matching is omnipresent for programming languages is a sign of English dominance, perhaps.
mats: vietnamese people tell me that the state education system glosses over the entire war with the americans, and its widely understood to be for political expedience

verisimilitude: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-12-27#1069723 I'm glad to have been an inspiration, d4. I often joke with others about how my basic recognition that a program should handle its entire domain is met with amazement to some others, although not in this case.

thimbronion: I won't be able to restart serious work on Blatta again until late Jan. In the mean time I may take a stab at creating a patch that prevents Blatta from crashing on unknown commands.
thimbronion: Can't really release what I've got right now because it requires a db migration, which I have yet to write.
jonsykkel: i see, alternatively i could bake tmp. blatta hack that fixes incompatibilities. theres couple more things that prevents smooth comms (version = 0xfe, and selfchain thing)
jonsykkel: (selfchain problem should be hackabl without changing db struct by just ensuring that created_at is monotonic by force)
shinohai: jonsykkel: peered and added yer key do you need any of my info for yer at ?
