A+ is dead. Well, looks like its website died a while ago, but it just dropped out of the debian archive today. Array languages saw some kind of renaissance in recent years with a number of new ones popping up, but A+ has long fallen into obsolescence. Truth be told, I haven’t used it in a long time either.

Maybe I should order Gemini to rewrite it for me.

Not sure what I expected. AI trying to write code is literally the XKCD’s StackSort. Why is it always so disappointing when so many people (?) share success stories? Maybe they are using the paid version, or secret prompt engineering techniques. Rubber ducks were much more energy efficient.

A jak cię skrosują, to mów, że to nie twoja noga.

F* today’s chromium build (140) no longer allows reenabling “unsupported” extensions… easily. Okay, it’s still possible. Whew (感谢 xiaoqing). Looks like the possibility to rewrite what I needed in mv3 was added in March in 135. Maybe that will be enough. But it still needs to be completely rewritten and forcing everything into service worker scheme makes it slower, error prone, and requires a LOT more code. Maybe I should order Gemini to rewrite it for me.

Dear #langblr, how is it even possible for Turkish güzel and the Wanderwort gazelle (< غزال) not to be related?

Duolingo Ukrainian course keeps using the word ‘довідкa’. No, this is not a typo, at least not mine. The last letter is the Latin ‘a’ rather than Cyrillic ‘а’. The difference shouldn’t really be visible in any half-decent font, but thanks to webfonts and TTS, it actually stands out a lot.

C23 introduced a “digit separator” for readability, so that you can write 100'000'000 and not break your brain counting the zeroes.

Except in the PDF it is always rendered as the Unicode ’ U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK, not the ASCII ’ U+0027 APOSTROPHE, and never specified otherwise anywhere.

So technically, the standard separator is ’, not ’.

This actually sent me down a rabbit hole. At some point between C11 (N1570) and C17 (N2176), all single quotes were changed to U+2019, down to section 5.2.1 which describes the character sets; AFAICT this is the only character of the standard character set which is not ASCII.

That means that you can find examples in the standard, that you cannot cannot compile, because all compilers I tried rejected U+2019.

Nobody said it has to be ASCII; EBCDIC is fine too!

It reminds me of when an online version of one dictionary used U+3003 ⟨〃⟩ in its definition of the term “ditto mark” and Wikipedia editors tried to use that lexicographic source to support invalid typographic claims it never actually made.

It’s not like the incidental font encoding used in the PDF has any normative value. The text of the mentioned section explicitly says the values of the members of the source character set are implementation defined, and that the character that appears to be represented with ⟨’⟩ in the PDF belongs to the required basic subset and so its value must fit in a byte.

At least it’s not ALGOL with its delimiters that look like English words but are indivisible symbols not made of regular letters. Try making that copiable from PDF.

wtf with tumblr showing me weird imagery stylized for ’00s anime aesthetics “based on your likes?” it sure is more pleasant to my eyes that all that ’20s crap, but it’s obviously only stylization and it’s hella uncanny; being described as “retro” or tags like “#moecore” with a bunch of ribbon emoji don’t make it any better…
