23:22.50 | vendu | hello :) |
23:22.58 | delusional | YO! |
23:23.04 | vendu | yo delusional :) |
23:23.08 | vendu | how's it going? |
23:23.17 | delusional | Pretty good actually. |
23:23.29 | vendu | :) |
23:23.32 | vendu | same thing here |
23:23.33 | delusional | A little tired from overwork, but thats a good thing |
23:23.38 | vendu | :P |
23:23.47 | vendu | i'm pondering some stuff |
23:23.59 | vendu | i am, it looks like this time for real, writing a book on low-level programming :) |
23:24.28 | vendu | currently, it has the most exhaustive take i've seen on numeric presentation (i.e. how computer represent [integral] values) :) |
23:24.41 | vendu | stuff on c's stack-based run model |
23:24.42 | vendu | and so on |
23:25.02 | vendu | a bit on code optimisation (how to access memory etc.) and probably quite a bit more on this topic later :) |
23:25.18 | delusional | I made an applescript once, and it worked on the second try |
23:26.46 | OoOberLeet | I havent done anyserious programming since the early 80's |
23:27.03 | vendu | hehee |
23:27.06 | vendu | i have |
23:27.08 | vendu | a little bit |
23:27.09 | vendu | :P |
23:27.58 | vendu | well |
23:28.05 | OoOberLeet | but way back when.... I used Fortran, Cobol... and near the end I was actually using machine language. |
23:28.13 | OoOberLeet | how's that for low-level |
23:28.24 | vendu | i wanna write stuff, need a bit of money, and seriously haven't seen most of this covered in a single document (some of this stuff is seriously hard to find) :) |
23:28.35 | vendu | hehe |
23:28.43 | OoOberLeet | you can make a lot in publishing |
23:28.49 | vendu | i mostly use c with occasional (mostly inline) assembly |
23:29.25 | vendu | low-level? debugging your own boot-loader by looking at disassembly output and figuring out where it goes from symbol tables? :P |
23:29.29 | vendu | qualify? =) |
23:29.46 | vendu | well |
23:29.52 | vendu | money would always be welcome |
23:29.56 | OoOberLeet | fersure |
23:30.09 | vendu | but truth to be told, if i can't find a publisher i'm probably gonna make it free :) |
23:30.23 | vendu | in fact, i'd like to make (at least some versions) of digital copies free anyway :) |
23:30.32 | vendu | but i'll see about a lot of stuff later |
23:30.39 | OoOberLeet | dont ask me to proofread |
23:30.42 | vendu | need to figure out good structure for the book and write most of it first :) |
23:30.53 | vendu | hehe :) |
23:31.08 | OoOberLeet | that would definitely help. |
23:33.21 | delusional | here's what i've been pondering lately. http://www.correlatedmagnetics.com/ |
23:34.09 | delusional | the guy is actually able to "print" many positive and negative poles onto a single magnet |
23:34.14 | vendu | sounds like out of my league from the url alone :) |
23:34.23 | vendu | ah |
23:34.25 | vendu | :P |
23:34.48 | delusional | I'm gonna use it to create an over-unity generator |
23:34.57 | delusional | what do I have to lose? |
23:35.12 | delusional | i have about as much chance as anybody else. |
23:35.58 | vendu | not really exactly sure what you're talking about, but hmm... cool :P |
23:36.35 | vendu | dire straits - brothers in arms |
23:36.35 | vendu | :) |
23:37.53 | delusional | an over unity generator is one of those free energy schemes |
23:38.02 | vendu | =) |
23:38.42 | delusional | so my chance of success is .00000000000000001 percent |
23:38.46 | vendu | :) |
23:39.58 | delusional | but seriously, i ordered some magnets and am going to experiment a little.... If nothing else my nephew will get a nice project for his science project. |
23:47.41 | vendu | :) |
