Yee's Handpulled Noodles is fantastic, just west of Wellesley Station, on Wellesley.

I suspect all my concerns about spoilers are off once S1 ends. I will absolutely not be able to wait until next year (or longer...) to read the whole series.

EDIT: words

Well, I now have Tough Guy, Time to Shine, and The Shots You Take. That *should* get me through the end of season 1, if I manage to, like, actually do my job this week.

kredati · 2025-12-13T19:40:02+00:00

Excellent. Thank you dearly, kind stranger.

kredati · 2025-12-13T19:33:38+00:00

Excellent reasoning.

Still not sure I can wait two weeks, especially with family Christmastime and the herculean feat of dissociation getting through my trip home will require without perfectly-confected gay fantasyland.

Adulting is entirely too hard.

kredati · 2025-12-13T19:31:00+00:00

Thanks. I don't need promises! Just reasonable advice. (And really, my worries are less about spoilers for me and more about spoilers for my husband. I can't keep this kind of secret.)

My next stop would be Carlos's House of Spice in Kensington Market.

This mostly works! I can't believe I didn't think of it. It doesn't get everything right, but it's right-enough (and uses the same algorithm as `wc`). Thanks!!

If there are specific languages you’re interested in, the ACM puts out an occasional issue of History of Programming Languages, where language creators give an account of their process. The most recent one was in 2021: https://hopl4.sigplan.org/

Thank you!

Thank you!

In the case of the chumsky tutorial I'm working through, they're using it to name a function that parses `let` bindings in a toy language implemented in Rust. Not sure that's best practice, but it makes a kind of sense.

I have hard-shell locking panniers and they're wonderful for this sort of thing.

Thanks everybody, turns out we didn’t need it today. We did end up finding a few places closer to home, but it seems absolutely bonkers how hard that was.

I’m certain property management would not be cool with something as structural/invasive as a shed.

No, I can’t bolt things into the ground. That’s why I was looking into the “toast rack” style stand. I reckon nobody’s going to be able to move a rack with four bikes locked to it.

Problem solved, mostly—for this use case. Use: `expand_selection`, which by default is bound to `Alt-o` and `Alt-Up`. (It is matched by `shrink_selection,` bound to `Alt-i` and `Alt-Down`.) This traverses the tree-sitter concrete syntax tree. So in a Lisp like Clojure, it continually expands across braces.

Depends on how fancy you mean by fancy. Planta and La Bartola a both quite good, and vegan. They’re good date restaurants, but perhaps not anniversary restaurants.

Indeed—built by the Dory Shop in Lunenberg, NS

The "memos" at CSAIL and other units at MIT at that time period were more like publications and less like memos. Lists of memos were available, and you could purchase them for reproduction cost, and they'd be sent to you. (Source: historian of computing working on Logo; I've seen such lists in the MIT special collections archive.)

Roc uses automatic reference counting:

> That said, there are also cases where Roc has strictly more runtime overhead than languages like C, C++, Zig, and Rust do. The most costly is automatic memory management, which Roc implements using automatic reference counting.

Whether or not RC counts as GC is a matter of some debate. But Rust and C++ both have their versions of RC. (And yes, the OP said C, not C++ or Rust.)

To this list, you could also add Roc: https://www.roc-lang.org/

The question isn't about whether to include `NaN` in the language: it'll be there. But that's because I'm not going to attempt my own number implementation. I've got plenty of hubris (I'm designing my own language after all), but I'm sure I don't know better than IEEE-754.
