And it should be hosted on neocities.

That's probably not so hard that a 7 year old girl could do it.

Is that not called 'bluffing' with strategic planning?

The Land of Not

kruhft — Fri, 22 Dec 2023 22:50:26 +0000

The Land of Not ==

This is a document about the game "The Land of Not".

An opposite of opposite if like.

A 10x10 grid of words that are opposite to each other.

Need 50 opposites.

The following is English:

The opposite of not is not The opposite of like is opposite The opposite of left is right The opposite of up is down The opposite of in is out

The following is Clarity:

not not is knot not like is opposite not left is right not up is down not in is out not animal is human not knotty is royal not royal is knotty not artificial is natural

not sit is stand not open is close not winter is summer not empty is full not enter is leave

not yet is already not sour is sweet not summer is winter not fall is spring not sadness is happiness not special is general

not suberb is centre not strange is normal

not relevant is unrelevant # So it goes. not relevant is also irrelivant # So it stays.

The following is word definition in Clarity:

the verb named not to get the opposite of something the noun named knot is an organized or tangled set of things

The following is 'Typeless Clarity':

the opposite-of-opposite is like

the adjective named left is on, toward, or relating to the side of a human body or of a thing that is to the west when the person or thing is facing north.

The next is non-recursive because of the previous definition:

the adverb named left is on or to the left side.

the opposite of knot is not

QED

$ cat <<'X' > count-the-nots.sh grep not TheLandOfNot.Clarity | grep -v named | sed 1d | wc -l X

Got to 25 nots.

Liskell was one.

It was Haskell with S-Expressions (Lisp like) as it's front end.

My take years ago on a simple ERC-20 token (source) for a "SpaceX" (sic, should have been SpaceBit) token.

Pretty obvious name though.

kruhft — Mon, 02 Oct 2023 18:22:42 +0000

I prefer to use something more lightweight as $EDITOR, such as 'mg'. Almost all the same keybindings, unfortunately no syntax highlighting, but very fast startup.

Title should be "Using Emacs as $EDITOR" (all caps).

Had to reboot.

Lame.

I looked through the code and found some parenscript, or at least something that reminded me of parenscript alot.

Just bringing up some history. I don't know the age profile of the developers or readers anymore.

Just trying to look smart.
