2026-05-29 10:04:04 <veltas      > Got two young kids to look after, full time job, etc
2026-05-29 10:04:26 <veltas      > But I don't mind you sharing, I did try to look at what you sent the other day and pulled it up and then started falling asleep at my computer
2026-05-29 10:04:59 <veltas      > Although I think our youngest is getting a bit easier now, and will go in his own room soon hopefully
2026-05-29 10:05:40 <veltas      > It's good what you're sharing, it's actually on-topic for one thing :P

2026-05-29 15:17:31 <vms14       > about being on topic, well crc told me concat langs are allowed so i guess yes. But i wonder if some people will be annoyed if i spam about a language that is not forth and it's quite different from it
2026-05-29 15:19:17 <vms14       > some things are similar and i can steal a lot of concepts though
2026-05-29 15:25:03 <veltas      > You basically have a Forth-style RPN lang, essentially ITC

2026-05-29 15:28:57 <Stalevar    > Also I bought HP 39gs for similar price but now it's not anywhere on Aliexpress. Got out of stock suddenly?
2026-05-29 15:29:04 <vms14       > yeah but not having memory access and a forth dictionary is a bit sad i guess if you like forth
2026-05-29 15:29:19 <vms14       > there is not even a return stack and i consider it more a joke than a serious lang xd
2026-05-29 15:30:30 <vms14       > but in a way it is an attempt to make a forth-like without memory access
2026-05-29 15:31:40 <vms14       > the main difference is that with immediate words in forth you can mess with the dictionary and create new entries and the dictionary is linear. I was not able to provide something linear where an immediate word could take over and mess with the entry it's being made
2026-05-29 15:32:14 <vms14       > instead immediate words can choose to return a function and that gets appended to whatever is being defined
2026-05-29 15:32:52 <vms14       > well i could do something linear, but it's simpler that way
2026-05-29 15:35:14 <veltas      > A lot of what you're saying is still very similar to how threading works in a conventional forth
2026-05-29 15:35:36 <vms14       > i thread js functions xd
2026-05-29 15:36:09 <vms14       > and you can push them on the stack since the stack can take anything
2026-05-29 15:41:17 <vms14       > i want to understand better concatenative programming and explore and exploit its benefits

2026-05-29 15:42:06 <vms14       > and duplicating values to reuse them is something i always wanted in langs
2026-05-29 15:42:51 <vms14       > when i made a lisp the last time i was missing the stack for some reason, and lisp is not really what i want
2026-05-29 15:43:37 <vms14       > lisp was my favourite lang until i saw forth and then my interest on lisp went to 0
2026-05-29 15:46:10 <vms14       > also fp and concatenative programming seem to be quite related
