Rust wasn't made to replace C, C is to be there at low level and as a glue code for everything. Rust was made to replace C++ because the language it's a behemoth, it tries to do everything and the syntax it's a Lovecraftan ni

Eh, wait. I remember the NeoGeo having a m68k CPU's AND some kind of VPU/PPU a la NES but for 16 bit machines, a 24 bit one. Far more powerful than an Amiga or a Sega Megadrive (Genesis in the US).

C64: https://github.com/jkotlinski/durexforth It's impressive what you can do in the C64 with just Forth instead of C64 Basic. For Speccy/ZX80/ZX81, I'm pretty sure they ported the Jupyter ACE one,

BSOD's on Win95 and Win98 tell me otherwise. And with DOS... heh.

TBH I don't have many problems on that and even changing clothes on public beaches in Spain neither. I've gotten far more aroused with a nerdy/metalhead woman talking about geeky stuff (and her outfit) than just average nake

Hehe, kinda like Canal+ in Europe scrambled with Nagravision where the whole image was a fuzzy outline of snow and b/w shifting striples. Back in the day tons of people decoded it under PC's and a TV tuner with Wilma/MoreTV u

I love both Forth and Lisp but SectorLisp it's far better. Also, for a small demo, check Eforth under Subleq/Muxleq: https://github.com/howerj/subleq edit subleq.fth/muxleq.fth and set these options to 1

A gopher client would be easier and no AI needed as the protocol it's trivial to parse. You have sites from gopher://magical.fish to gopher://floodgap.org and gopher://sdf.org (and, as a plus, you can rea

I barely am an amateur in Go, (and my C skills are among TCPL 2nd ed.) because C it's everywhere and it's almost "mandatory" to know, I'm far more proficient in Scheme and Common Lisp. Porting Nomadnet is not easy t

Having Nomadnet in Go would be a great thing to have (and no more Rust dependency because of Python-Cryptography).

Hybrid system, actually. No 100% pure system survived, ever. Be capitalist, communist, or technology philosophy bound. The GNU project tried to expand Unix with ITS editors (Emacs), utilities, ITS'like freedom and Lisp (Emacs and Schem

Audio tracks and WAV/AU files weren't actually decoded, but straightly send to the sound card as bits. That's it, a command like cat file.wav > /dev/dsp Would just work under Unix (/dev/au

That should be rewritten in Go instead of the dead-slow Python release under 32 bit machines.

SICP teaches you calculus in a really easy way, you are basically teaching the computer how to derivate and integrate in Lisp which a much easier notation. The functions almost define themselves.

dx and dy are the smallest change ever in a function. Think about the speed of something (that's the reason of derivatives, you can't trace the speed of a stopped car in a track, you can't divide by zero, of course, there
