00:07 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: i would rather feed racoon with own meat.

06:10 asciilifeform http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-03-2016#1440527 << because motherfucking 1980?? or if you prefer, because it's an ancient gcc frontend? or, if neither satisfies, because its the only compiled lang with knobs to ease binary auditing?
06:10 assbot Logged on 27-03-2016 08:32:09; ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: can you speak to why ada's usgenesis shouldn't set off klaxons?
06:15 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: ada sucks in 1,001 ways, but unlike every other known non-c, introduction of mystery meat layer between the source semantics and resulting binary is not one f them. which unfortunately makes it the ~only~ sane choice for critical realtime system.
06:17 asciilifeform (i considered and rejected ml and haskell for this reason. go and explain how they work! can spend a fucking career on that. ick)
06:19 asciilifeform (the other choice, if trying to escape from ada, is to ditch the c-machine silicon, but i just checked my sofa cushion and still did not find a spare $10m in it with which to do this.)
06:24 asciilifeform incidentally, gnat is actually written in ada. and is quite readable... (in as much as such a thing can be called readable)
06:25 asciilifeform i've been struggling with my gag reflex for > year now, the language is pascal-ugly. but ~there is no sane alternative~ known.
06:28 asciilifeform because items like 'no overflows, fuck off', 'standard and rationale books', 'i can compile this by hand', or 'i can saw the binary open in ida and it is pretty clear what chunk of asm corresponds to what line of src' are NOT NEGOTIABLE.
06:36 asciilifeform the ~total unavailability of derplibraries (~no open-sores 'ecosystem') in ada land also has a cleansing effect.
06:38 asciilifeform sorta what common lisp looked like circa 2000 or so.
06:39 shinohai http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-03-2016#1440538 <<< spoke briefly to mod6 about gnat, still trying to wrap head around ada

06:39 asciilifeform *eyes
06:40 asciilifeform shinohai: it's a misery, i must warn.
06:41 asciilifeform using the language really feels like 'penance' for lifetime of bug-creation in c/cpp
06:41 asciilifeform it is aggressively programmer-hostile in 1,001 ways
06:42 asciilifeform no 'cleverness' permitted.

06:44 asciilifeform ben_vulpes et al: believe, if i had another, tastier antidote, i would say. but until then, we will drink this castor.
06:44 shinohai "JGNAT is a version compiled from the Ada programming language to Java bytecode." <<< srsly?
06:45 asciilifeform shinohai: nfi.
06:45 asciilifeform never even heard of such.
06:46 asciilifeform i vaguely recall a dark age jvm backend for gcc, perhaps it turned into this.
06:46 shinohai That looks gross, no thanks.
06:47 asciilifeform anyway who exactly frces you to use weird backend.
06:47 asciilifeform jvm dun exist on my planet.
06:54 asciilifeform on a happy note, appreciate how much ~aggressive sanity~ is baked into ada. it is routine, for example, to program ~without a heap~ !
06:54 asciilifeform as in, motherfucking constant-space.
06:56 asciilifeform (you ~can~ use heap. but its presence is not presupposed by the language constructs.)

13:50 jurov BingoBoingo: actually having rigid drill ready in the corner can be much more convenient and timesaving compared to affixing tiny bits to be drilled to chairs, even if not used often.
13:51 jurov my brain just repeatedly rejected the notion of anyone using it that way
13:52 BingoBoingo Yeah.
13:53 BingoBoingo I'm just kind of surprised this sort of overtooling isn't a big thing in bear pin up art.
13:55 jurov eh, bear pin ups are complete with just a firefighter gear
13:56 jurov lmao i saw even one proclaimed "a lumberjack" cuz of the axe
13:56 jurov so...anything beyond chainsaw is too nerdy for bear pinups
13:57 BingoBoingo hearing this I am disappointed more is not made of the innuendo possible from playing with the idea of big tools
13:59 jurov nudity + power tools = uncomfortable feeling
13:59 jurov it exists, but not mainstream
