| 02:16 | <@celticminstrel> | My main interest in the 6502 was that I thought it would be kind of cool to play Kid Radd on an NES emulator. Of course, that’s a huge project tho. |
| 03:21 | | * McMartin ponders how best to manage this Git repo, when dealing with a toolchain that both predates UTF-8 and also thinks that ∂ and ƒ are acceptable characters to make be crucial keywords |
| 03:21 | | * McMartin goes with "write a script to convert to/from UTF-8 as part of the transfer process" |
| 03:22 | <&McMartin> | I should probably also write a prep-for-import script, but I can do that later |
| 03:47 | <@celticminstrel> | HyperTalk / AppleScript dod that too BTW. |
| 03:47 | <@celticminstrel> | The line-continuation character is … uhh, I can’t even type it anymore I think… |
| 03:48 | <@celticminstrel> | ^did |
| 03:49 | <@celticminstrel> | Used to be alt-semicolon IIRC, but that’s now an ellipsis. |
| 03:50 | <@celticminstrel> | Or maybe it was alt-L? |
| 03:51 | <@celticminstrel> | ¬ |
| 03:51 | <@celticminstrel> | There we go |
| 03:51 | <@celticminstrel> | I think that’s still the line continuation in AppleScript possibly? |
| 03:53 | <@celticminstrel> | Fortunately, it looks like Script Editor will automatically insert one if you press alt-enter. |
| 03:53 | <@celticminstrel> | So the fact that it can no longer be typed isn’t really an obstacle, I guess. |
| 03:54 | <&McMartin> | Yeah, here ∂ is the line continuation character, and not only that, it works exactly like backslash for character substitutes, so ∂t is tab, ∂n is newline, etc. |
| 03:55 | <@celticminstrel> | That character actually can’t be typed either anymore. |
| 03:55 | <@celticminstrel> | I have eth but not partial derivative. |
| 03:55 | <@celticminstrel> | The florin is still on the layout tho. |
| 03:55 | <&McMartin> | ¬ at least is actually on UK keyboards. |
| 03:56 | <@celticminstrel> | Ah yeah, that sounds familiar. |
| 03:56 | <@celticminstrel> | But I’m talking about the US Extended layout on Mac OSX. |
| 03:59 | <@celticminstrel> | I just discovered that the onscreen keyboard is crazy customizable. o.O |

| 22:54 | <@celticminstrel> | TIL 8-bit is not the smallest type of processor in existence. |
| 22:54 | <&McMartin> | ... oh yeah, 8 is very much a historical accident kind of thing, AFAIK |
| 22:55 | <&McMartin> | (But also, like, the 4004) |
| 22:58 | < abudhabi__> | How small could a processor theoretically be? |
| 22:58 | < abudhabi__> | 1 bit? :V |
| 22:58 | <@celticminstrel> | Apparently there are 1-bit CPUs. |
| 23:01 | <&McMartin> | A ripple-carry adder is basically a bunch of 1-bit ALUs chained together |
| 23:09 | <@Tamber> | I mean, there is *this*: http://laughtonelectronics.com/Arcana/One-bit%20computer/One-bit%20computer.html |
