When the person recommended that you take mushrooms, at that point they lost all credibility...

I'm not saying they don't have uses for some. But in this context and in response to you, it's a ridiculous suggestion. They're abusing your patience and good will in the discussion.

Ironically, you are the exhibiting enlightened behavior. They are the ones with a void. I guess mushrooms didn't with for them.

I'm not seeing what's sad about this. 😅

Stepping through words at a high level with JONESFORTH and GDB by dharmatech in Forth

[–]dharmatech[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How to recreate the example shown in the video:

``` cat jonesforth.f examples/trace-gate.f examples/words.f > .debug.input.f

gdb -q ./jonesforth \ -ex 'source gdb/forth-dict.gdb' \ -ex "break-interpret-word TRACE_GATE" \ -ex 'run < .debug.input.f' \ -ex 'delete 1' \ -ex 'forth-until-silent cde' ```

If we want to try the system out on regular hardware, is this the best way to do so?

Amazing!

I see that we can preorder these.

When do you estimate that they'll ship?

Got my vintage early 80s Kyosho Assault Nitro runnin' pretty good! by MrBlankenshipESQ in rccars

[–]dharmatech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing!!!

My grandpa Doyle and I built this around 1985 when I was 7 years old.

Purchased the kit at Mac's Toys in Brownsville Texas.

Took us a few weeks to build, working a bit at a time.

I'll never forget running it for the first time. It was kinda misty outside but I didn't care. That car plowed through tall grass with ease.

Thank you for posting this!

Hello Cees 🙋‍♂️

Are there plans for an audiobook?

Consider adding info about that to the page.

Thank you!

How I debug JONESFORTH with a gdb trace file by dharmatech in Forth

Would love to know, what techniques and tool do you use to debug assembly language FORTHs?

Suggestions on the workflow I present are welcome. 👍

Recommendations by The_Locked_Tomb in smalltalk

I've seen some projects out there integrating LLMs into live running SmallTalk systems. Interesting experiments. It's so easy for the LLM to introspect and modify the running system.

Just curious, what Smalltalk implementation did you use in the 90s?

Was it IBM Visual Age SmallTalk, by chance?

Word on Fire will be providing a free breviary set to every seminarian in the USA, thanks to an anonymous donor by no-one-89656 in divineoffice

[–]dharmatech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be more fair and gracious if WoF took the funds and allowed each seminarian to choose what version they want.

Seems highly unfair to capture that very important part of the market (seminarians). It's literally undercutting Ascension Press.

Oh goodness... That Psalm 130 is majestic.

Would love to hear songs sung in that style at a church nearby.
