2024-08-09 00:31:26 <lf94        > news from me: i completely langton's ant, and a one time pad generator
2024-08-09 00:31:32 <lf94        > completed*
2024-08-09 00:31:45 <lf94        > and one my4th light board made it to poland!
2024-08-09 00:31:51 <lf94        > guy sent me pics of it running
2024-08-09 00:31:59 <lf94        > I still have 3 waiting to be acquired :)
2024-08-09 00:32:10 <lf94        > I'm brainstorming some sorta community also for these
2024-08-09 00:32:17 <lf94        > we need a repo for my4th specific forth
2024-08-09 00:32:28 <lf94        > since the system only has 8kib of ram
2024-08-09 01:00:26 <tbsp        > my4th light looks like a wonderful device I'd probably never find time to tinker with :(
2024-08-09 01:05:21 <lf94        > well, the plan is for me to hook up a little screen to it to just run cellular automations allday
2024-08-09 01:05:40 <lf94        > maybe write a little drawing lib for it
2024-08-09 01:05:49 <lf94        > you could totally find time to tinker there
2024-08-09 01:09:21 <tbsp        > That does sound fun :)
2024-08-09 01:11:27 <lf94        > i'd like to maybe have it spit out gcode over serial too one day for shits and giggles

2024-08-09 20:45:09 <veltas      > I don't know why having 8KB of RAM warrants a different kind of Forth
2024-08-09 20:47:42 <dlowe       > you can pack pointers into fewer bits :D
2024-08-09 20:53:58 <lf94        > veltas: not a different kind of forth, but just forth code that's way more aware of space constraints.
2024-08-09 20:54:27 <lf94        > hell, we could maybe just make the repo full of forth code for many systems with these constraints.
2024-08-09 20:54:46 <lf94        > 'we could', we really should...
2024-08-09 20:57:38 <zelgomer    > why does forth even need memory? chuck could never get it down to 0?
2024-08-09 20:58:23 <lf94        > lmao
2024-08-09 20:58:37 <lf94        > what a noob
2024-08-09 21:20:38 <veltas      > Just classic Forths are already designed for 8KB of RAM
2024-08-09 21:23:03 <veltas      > Old fig forths are worth understanding
2024-08-09 21:24:13 <lf94        > yes i know i just want to restrict the repository to forth code that is memory aware :)
2024-08-09 21:24:23 <lf94        > im not talk about forth implementations
2024-08-09 21:24:30 <lf94        > but actual forth user code
2024-08-09 21:36:25 <kpn         > by 8 kb you mean the size of the operator's program or the size of the entire system?
2024-08-09 21:36:40 <lf94        > operator's program
2024-08-09 21:37:06 <kpn         > 8kb for the system would def be something
2024-08-09 22:38:49 <neauoire    > J1 on FPGA without extension has 4kb of memory I think
2024-08-09 23:01:21 <KipIngram   > J1 is neat.
