Zarutian_iPad didn't you like tcl?
00:16:36
##forth
<vms14>
weren't you going to make a tcl implementation in lua?
00:17:25
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
I like tcl but I think that project fell off the list if it was ever there
00:17:31
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
why fo you ask?
00:17:39
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
do*
00:17:52
##forth
<xentrac>
eew
00:18:06
##forth
<vms14>
cause I was exploring tcl and saw you
00:18:45
##forth
<vms14>
and I thought, no other zarutian will ever exist
00:18:54
##forth
<vms14>
what is a zarutian anyways
00:18:55
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
oh, yeah I was involved way back but I havent checked out tcl in a long while now
00:19:10
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
this nick handle of mine
00:19:15
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
that is it
00:21:17
##forth
<xentrac>
oh, I didn't remember that you were into flow-based programming, if I ever knew
00:21:30
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
the _iPad part is just because I am using webchat.libra.chat on an iPad
00:21:39
##forth
<xentrac>
condolences
00:23:03
##forth
<xentrac>
sharecropping Apple's plantation is kind of the diametrical opposite of the society of independent, secure computer systems freely associating that E was designed for
00:23:18
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
yeah flow based programming looks to me the only sane way to do multi processor programming and make it somewhat understandable to non programer or non specialists
00:24:00
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
naah, I just havent been bothered to set up an irc client on my laptop yet
00:24:43
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
and I used to have one on my smartphone too but the battery on that one crapped out
00:25:37
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
currently on this ipad I just have two safari windows open in split view
00:26:24
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
xentrac: spritely.institute is keeping on the work of E
00:26:31
##forth
<xentrac>
I know
00:27:03
##forth
<xentrac>
you may have forgotten I used to be on #erights (##erights?)
00:27:31
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
so, using an ipad I inherited for keeping precense here is better than nothing
00:27:56
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
forgotten or paged it out into more longer term storage
00:28:43
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
you know, down in the basement beside the wc room that has "Beware of the leopard" kind of storage
00:30:55
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
so, now a days I am most involved in that fpga impl of uFork as I view most of current compiting substrate not worth of high trust
00:33:19
##forth
<Zarutian_iPad>
xentrac: so, what is your opinion on spritely and agoric?
00:56:59
##forth
<xentrac>
Zarutian_iPad: both Spritely Goblins and the Agoric platform sound awesome in the abstract, and MarkM, Dean, Warner, Dan Connolly, and Chris Hibbert are all very accomplished and smart people
00:57:17
##forth
<xentrac>
but I haven't actually tried doing anything with either one
