+2011-04-05.txt:19:56:29: <ZOMGMODULES> i dunno man, should be relaxing
+2011-04-05.txt:19:56:47: <ZOMGMODULES> it's like drumming... it has a cadence
+2011-04-05.txt:19:57:01: <ZOMGMODULES> THIS IS THE WISDOM OF ZOMGMODULES.  HEED IT
+2011-04-05.txt:19:57:37: <ZOMGMODULES> your grammar is pretty much established?
+2011-04-05.txt:19:57:58: <ZOMGMODULES> you wrote it out?  on paper?
+2011-04-05.txt:19:58:04: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: well, the bootstrap grammar is pretty much established. i'm not going to try fun stuff until i rewrite the compiler in the language.
+2011-04-05.txt:19:58:41: <ZOMGMODULES> you need to write it out, preferably on paper but also in a comment block at the top of the source is acceptable, or it won't be relaxing.
+2011-04-05.txt:19:59:10: <ZOMGMODULES> this is the wisdom
+2011-04-05.txt:19:59:45: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: pretty impressive ass you have there, with all the ideas you pull out of it ;;;;::DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDdddddddddddd
+2011-04-05.txt:20:03:03: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: with yacc-like things, if you have like, [a; b; c] and {a; b; c} both as blocks
+2011-04-05.txt:20:04:56: * ZOMGMODULES ACKNOWLEDGES NOT THESE "YACC-LIKE THINGS"

+2011-04-05.txt:20:09:02: <ZOMGMODULES> i'd love to, it's very relaxing.  unfortunately, can't spend all day here
+2011-04-05.txt:20:09:19: <ZOMGMODULES> though 'dem smalltalk thangles' is a little underspecified for my taste
+2011-04-05.txt:20:09:55: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: message is expr messagepart*
+2011-04-05.txt:20:12:29: <ZOMGMODULES> i would just accept ident or ident: interchangeably and filter out the bad stuff at the static analysis phase
+2011-04-05.txt:20:12:33: <ZOMGMODULES> if that's legal
+2011-04-05.txt:20:12:41: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: oh that's not the problem
+2011-04-05.txt:20:12:51: <ZOMGMODULES> hey,... ghci's "let" does something like that, right oerjan?
+2011-04-05.txt:20:13:02: <ZOMGMODULES> if it's good enough for ghci it's good enough for me
+2011-04-05.txt:20:13:19: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: that's a dumb grammar
+2011-04-05.txt:20:13:25: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: that's smalltalk
+2011-04-05.txt:20:13:33: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: really :s are banned in identifiers altogether
+2011-04-05.txt:20:13:36: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: it's just that they're valid _symbols_

+2011-04-05.txt:20:14:19: <ZOMGMODULES> this is pretty much why i never got into smalltalk
+2011-04-05.txt:20:14:30: <ZOMGMODULES> this very part of it seemed unnecessarily brutal
+2011-04-05.txt:20:14:42: <ZOMGMODULES> :'s
+2011-04-05.txt:20:14:58: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: hmm, i dunno
+2011-04-05.txt:20:15:34: <ZOMGMODULES> my brain just does not think like that
+2011-04-05.txt:20:16:02: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: well, it's nicer than /python's/ approach to the "argument positions are meaningless" problem.
+2011-04-05.txt:20:16:05: <ZOMGMODULES> using the same label mechanism for all those things
+2011-04-05.txt:20:16:26: <ZOMGMODULES> that's ok.  it's been a long time and i don't remember
+2011-04-05.txt:20:22:06: <ZOMGMODULES> I do not know if I agree with the sentiment that adding a random number to every character in your program and interpreting it as Perl counts as your language being "Turing-complete"
+2011-04-05.txt:20:26:12: <oerjan> <ZOMGMODULES> hey,... ghci's "let" does something like that, right oerjan? <-- well that's what it looked like...
+2011-04-05.txt:20:26:26: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: look at dat lack of braces
+2011-04-05.txt:20:27:57: <ZOMGMODULES> C needs a ";;" operator that is a high-precedence ";" to avoid the need for braces
+2011-04-05.txt:20:28:10: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: and we could call it ocaml
+2011-04-05.txt:20:28:12: <ZOMGMODULES> if (x==y) printf("hi") ;; printf("there")
+2011-04-05.txt:20:28:30: <ZOMGMODULES> oh uh

+2011-04-05.txt:20:28:34: <ZOMGMODULES> *SURE
+2011-04-05.txt:20:28:43: <ZOMGMODULES> the more ;'s the higher the precedence
+2011-04-05.txt:20:29:11: <ZOMGMODULES> yeah that's not quite my vision
+2011-04-05.txt:20:37:33: <ZOMGMODULES> they do research on viewpoints

+2011-04-05.txt:20:38:14: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: careful. alan kay might punch you

+2011-04-05.txt:20:42:35: <Phantom_Hoover> ZOMGMODULES, you're named after a werewolf.
+2011-04-05.txt:20:42:44: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: So, like your parents then?

+2011-04-05.txt:20:56:28: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: IS THAT RIGHT, O WISE RECURSIVELY-DESCENDING MASTER
+2011-04-05.txt:21:00:18: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott I AM STILL TRYING TO WRAP MY HEAD AROUND THE ENGLISH GROUP
+2011-04-05.txt:21:01:56: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: does your accept() have a side-effect
+2011-04-05.txt:21:02:05: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: accept() is
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:00: <ZOMGMODULES> huh. i always use expect(), and never accept()
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:12: <ZOMGMODULES> i use tokeq() which doesn't consume
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:17: <ZOMGMODULES> fewer side-effects in tests
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:18: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: well i copied accept() from wikipedia :) but accept is actually quite nice i think
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:30: <ZOMGMODULES> if you like side-effects in tests, SURE
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:42: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: if (ident() && accept(COLON) && expr()) return 1;
+2011-04-05.txt:21:03:52: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: (ok so that wouldn't be as nice-looking in practice cuz you have to build an ast, but that's not bad)
+2011-04-05.txt:21:04:51: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: PRETTY
+2011-04-05.txt:21:08:00: <ZOMGMODULES> wow, I took almost all day to come up with two lines of code
+2011-04-05.txt:21:08:49: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: http://sprunge.us/iQeM hey this grammar is actually pretty simple
+2011-04-05.txt:21:09:56: <ZOMGMODULES> if your tests consume tokens, you won't have infinite loops
+2011-04-05.txt:21:10:24: <ZOMGMODULES> at least you have THAT assurance, with those side-effects
+2011-04-05.txt:21:10:38: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: i'm practically a nazi
+2011-04-05.txt:21:10:50: <ZOMGMODULES> expects are... more like exit()s in C
+2011-04-05.txt:21:11:05: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: right but like if you have a
+2011-04-05.txt:21:11:10: <ZOMGMODULES> unless you do some fancy catching thing with them
+2011-04-05.txt:21:11:18: <ZOMGMODULES> in which case they're more like throw
+2011-04-05.txt:21:11:52: <ZOMGMODULES> you will eventually run out of tokens
+2011-04-05.txt:21:12:02: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: accept doesn't consume if it doesn't match
+2011-04-05.txt:21:12:12: <ZOMGMODULES> oh, right
+2011-04-05.txt:21:12:46: <ZOMGMODULES> THAT IS WHY ZOMGMODULES USES IT ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY
+2011-04-05.txt:21:12:53: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: GOOD ADVICE
+2011-04-05.txt:21:13:07: <ZOMGMODULES> I even do things like { if tokeq(";") { expect(";"); ... } }
+2011-04-05.txt:21:13:22: <ZOMGMODULES> simplicity > efficiency
+2011-04-05.txt:21:13:58: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: um but that's exactly what accept is :D
+2011-04-05.txt:21:14:06: <ZOMGMODULES> yes
+2011-04-05.txt:21:14:22: <ZOMGMODULES> that's why accept is an UNNECESSARY
+2011-04-05.txt:21:14:55: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: BLAHHH
+2011-04-05.txt:21:15:08: <ZOMGMODULES> also, ...
+2011-04-05.txt:21:15:19: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: so your routines, do they call the tokeniser or does the tokeniser call it?
+2011-04-05.txt:21:15:35: <ZOMGMODULES> void parse_foo() { expect("foo"); }   void parse_bar() { if (tokeq("foo")) parse_foo(); }
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:27: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: actually with recursive descent the latter would only be possible with continuations i think :D
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:29: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: I call the tokenizer, generally
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:34: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: you got it
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:41: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: with something continuation-like, anyway
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:44: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: which means: we need that C continuation lib!
+2011-04-05.txt:21:16:55: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: I APPROVE OF MY PROBLEM-SOLVING METHOD
+2011-04-05.txt:21:17:02: <ZOMGMODULES> once, in Erlang, I did neither.  I had the lexer and parser be seperate processes which messaged each other
+2011-04-05.txt:21:17:22: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: that's ... almost beautifully hideous
+2011-04-05.txt:21:21:56: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: so does writing a compiler that compiles to machine code hurts?
+2011-04-05.txt:21:29:58: <ZOMGMODULES> tswettbot: you rock
+2011-04-05.txt:21:30:12: * ZOMGMODULES is hoping a dozen debug windows just opened up for tswett
+2011-04-05.txt:21:30:47: <ZOMGMODULES> < elliott> ZOMGMODULES: so does writing a compiler that compiles to machine code hurts? <-- no, not really... depends, I guess
+2011-04-05.txt:21:31:33: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: yeah but my compiler has to have, liek, two backends!
+2011-04-05.txt:21:31:42: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: x86-64/linux and x86-64/NOTHING
+2011-04-05.txt:21:32:23: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: then it's not, generally speaking, that painful... everything is partitioned nicely.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:32:31: <ZOMGMODULES> lexer, parser, ast, codegen.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:32:42: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: oh the compiler parts don't scare me.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:32:53: <ZOMGMODULES> it's if you want to do it all "narrow" where it gets hairy
+2011-04-05.txt:21:33:13: <ZOMGMODULES> nothing too painful about generating x86 code, is there?
+2011-04-05.txt:21:33:21: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: well no. but i want mnemonics!
+2011-04-05.txt:21:33:36: <ZOMGMODULES> you want to generate assembler?
+2011-04-05.txt:21:34:07: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: no.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:34:17: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: i want to generate machine code using an assembler-ish dsl
+2011-04-05.txt:21:34:20: <ZOMGMODULES> then you lost me at "mnemonics"
+2011-04-05.txt:21:34:54: <ZOMGMODULES> then you (in effect) want to write an assembler, and generate assembly for that assembler
+2011-04-05.txt:21:35:07: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: yes. that's true. but i don't want to _generate_ it, i want to invoke its routines directly.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:35:16: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: and the assembler doesn't actually have to be convenient...
+2011-04-05.txt:21:35:52: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: then you are writing a codegen.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:36:22: <ZOMGMODULES> a codegen with an API whose entry points have names that mnemonics.  much like, well, every API
+2011-04-05.txt:21:36:27: <ZOMGMODULES> *that are
+2011-04-05.txt:21:37:12: <ZOMGMODULES> there are many codegens that let you switch out backends to target a different architecture.  if that's what you're saying
+2011-04-05.txt:21:37:21: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: no no no.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:38:22: <ZOMGMODULES> elliott: I've basically coded that API (in C, not Smalltalk)
+2011-04-05.txt:21:38:50: <elliott> ZOMGMODULES: sure. it's easy enough for a subset. just IDEALLY i'd generate it from the big instruction table things :)
+2011-04-05.txt:21:39:23: <ZOMGMODULES> generating it from an instruction table, yes: I've never done that and it would have some nice to it.
+2011-04-05.txt:21:39:53: * ZOMGMODULES SAYS ONLY EXACTLY WHAT ZOMGMODULES MEANS
+2011-04-05.txt:21:40:18: * ZOMGMODULES DISMISSES TSWETTBOT!!!!

+2011-04-05.txt:22:10:28: <ZOMGMODULES> C has fine support for sexprs once you code them up
