I thought you just wanted to replace functions and classes immediately for the computations going forward, even if the program already has first-class closures and stack frames from those functions or instances of those classes, such that you replace the code but keep the associated data like closure upvalues 11:45:55 and stack frame temporaries and class instance members, and the problem with that was that you get uninitialized variables that the new functions or classes expect to exist and fulfill some invariant but the old functions or classes didn't yet have. 12:02:36 Maybe that's why you don't want to do that in Feather, but retroactively recompute everything. 12:15:30 -!- tromp has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 12:16:45 But recomputing everything has its own problems. The outputs of the program might retroactively change, including error messages and prompts, and so the inputs might not make sense anymore.

I struggle to sokoban my immediate surroundings into good place but it’s nigh impossible with too many knots of various kinds, social, technical, logistic. Ended up just simply dewooling a sofa of cat fur. That wasn’t immediate at all but it ended up simplest of all, as it needed just me and a brush, and not being perfectionist as that’s one of the favorite places for my cat anyway 23:03:22 and it wasn’t as satisfying as fixing major things would be 23:03:30 define fixing major things. 23:03:52 too many, I don’t want to force my life on you 23:03:59 or my lack of life :D 23:12:24 -!- tromp has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 23:17:47 in a nutshell the general story is that I was prepared for a life which doesn’t happen (their models were poor and I don’t know how they got jobs and all) and then I was left, mal-adapted, with this, and I need to change myself somehow so that I can shamelessly write my résumé finally and get a work. But I can’t and I think I might have minor depression for a year or two and I can’t clean up all the clutter in the flat becaus 23:17:47 e it’s not all mine and I can’t avoid hearing TV and it depresses and angers me and I think my knowledge is shallow, and I dropped out several years ago and don’t want to return and I can’t finish my own projects to place their code somewhere and a link to the future résumé and all the things, many details, I have almost no friends in the geografic vicinity, just friends outside but they couldn’t be able to help me with stu 23:17:47 ff here and all topping it off I’m blessed with great myopia right from the start and I have a little endocrynal problem which maybe fixed itself somehow but I blame my lack of motivation on it. And this damn country is bad for people in statistical tails like me. I wonder how do people with real physical deficiences live here at all but this doesn’t help my case by any means. Maybe I was just unlucky too many times, I don’t know, 23:17:47 it is hard to try to plot some course and make goals and all that now. I steer away from stressful things and résumé is stressful because it should ideally be blank and who wants me with a blank one, who’s interested in my unfinished understanding of hyperbolic spaces 23:18:57 imode: I don’t think it will help anyone but I tried to express what it feels all at once, though it’s not unbiased and it shouldn’t ideally be logged but I knew what I did 23:20:27 I can’t even prove to myself my baseline is not good as I’m quite often cheerful, and intend to continue that, but I have to solve all that at some moment and I can’t 23:21:25 all these knots is I maybe could solve thing A and thing B if I solved things C and D but they are all interdependent 23:22:48 playing with abstract mathematical things is way more forgiving 23:23:30 you can stow them away and they don’t mind 23:23:41 I need to be sorry for this 23:24:30 Why do you need to be sorry for this? 23:28:21 -!- arseniiv has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 23:31:37 yyyyikes, I thought they were in academia and at least had some kind of refuge. 23:33:30 I mean, I have myopia, and my self confidence was shot for several years. 23:36:35 life is complicated 23:37:01 hard living life without any real-life friends. 23:42:53 [[FakeScript]] N https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?oldid=82939 * JanMakuwe * (+1815) Created page with "'''FakeScript''' is an esolang created by [[User:JanMakuwe]].
