jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: main idea being to move "ground floor" (the line below which is the stuf u must alredy know to be able to run entire item manually on paper) down to just above english lang
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: exact behavior is specified as long as meaning of english lang is agred on and none of specs contain undefined behveior
asciilifeform: jonsykkel: see also knuth's 'literate programming'
asciilifeform: jonsykkel: see also this apropos vintage crackpottery by asciilifeform .
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: ye seen that, i readed ur entire www
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: my sigs would always be 0xFF
signpost[asciilifeform]: I liked this crackpottery. "I swear before Odin, this is contemptible shit."
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: agreed its good system
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: in others thought im would atempt something like this as a xperiment
bitbot[asciilifeform]: (asciilifeform) 2020-08-08 asciilifeform: gregorynyssa: imho even an item written in ordinary amd64 asm (for starters) would fit the bill. so long as it is done [http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-07-18#1016684][correctly -- i.e. ONLY impleme
dulapbot: (asciilifeform) 2020-07-18 asciilifeform: trinque: since you mentioned script langs: considering, after ffa, to attempt a 'dethompsonizing' simple gc-less scheme in asm, in style of 'M' as a scripting lang. can't speak for erryone, but i've wanted a <32kB scripting lang that 'compiles with bare hands' for many yrs.
dulapbot: (asciilifeform) 2020-07-18 asciilifeform: historically it's been attempted before, but all the examples i know of made fundamental mistake (attempted to implement the reader in the proggy, rather than in the interp. bytecode. if you do the latter, whole thing is 100x simpler)
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: alredy scoured logs for info re this kinda thing and readed kogge chapter on secd
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: if anybudy has any bright ideas it would not be bad if these ideas could be placed in this chat at this point in time
asciilifeform: jonsykkel: a++ project and afaik you've errything you need. that sword's been stuck in the stone for long enuff imho.
asciilifeform: jonsykkel: btw this is good example of how ~not~ to do it. dun write the 'paren eater' (text to ast meatgrinder) in asm. do it in the bytecoad, keep the x86olade to a min.
asciilifeform: ideally the latter oughta just eval, and elementary io, oughta fit in l0 cache.
asciilifeform: aa jonsykkel already even linked to the relevant line.
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: yep, thats brilant idea
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: thing can be ported to watever iron in 30min
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: exactly wat got me intrested in it
asciilifeform: jonsykkel: 'm' has errything you need in re: 'linux binturd w/out linker crapola'
asciilifeform: here an' here mostly.
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: indeed, god stuff there
