Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all! 




I'm a turkey.  Eat me!

Always remember that the first Thanksgiving feast was when the surviving Pilgrims (not many, most present were relatively new arrivals) gave thanks to God for teaching them the errors of socialism, and for providing the bounty of each individual family's efforts.

Falsish esolang

 Okay, I'm a junkie.  I like making esoteric programming language (esolang) variants.  I was focusing on Subleq, but have moved my sights along to False now.

False is one of the earliest purpose-built esolangs, dating back to 1993.  You can learn more about it here.

Anyway, I was also interested in the capabilities of the fish ><> esolang.  Especially how it could create new stacks.

So, I added the new stack capability to False, along with making a new local variable list with each stack.  That meant I also had to add a new way to have global variables.

I think I succeeded in my task.  For what it's worth, it was fun and educational.  After I gave up on the first misguided and overly complicated attempt, that is.  Wow, what a difference building the right foundation makes.  😊

You can find out more about Falsish here, and download the Python code from here.


Here is a sample program, written in Falsish:

{Factorial}
[$1=~[$1-F;!*]?]F:
5$F;!
\"Factorial of "." is: ".10,

No amnesty. Not now, not ever.

The Left is requesting "amnesty for me, but not for thee." Here is a quote from the Atlantic article.


"We have to put these fights aside and declare a pandemic amnesty. We can leave out the willful purveyors of actual misinformation while forgiving the hard calls that people had no choice but to make with imperfect knowledge."


Always remember that, to the Left, the truth is "misinformation".  

It's amusing that they actually believe that opinions have a completely random relationship to the truth.  
"Given the amount of uncertainty, almost every position was taken on every topic. And on every topic, someone was eventually proved right, and someone else was proved wrong. In some instances, the right people were right for the wrong reasons."
