Aside from the case of reads and writes of reference types in the context of concurrency, what's so good about immutability?

If Lisp has no syntax, why does it matter where I put the parentheses?

[1394811586] Hierarchical Temporal Memory

No.957646 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
HTM provides a way to guess what would happen next. If you combine HTM input with possible moves, then it will predict what actions lead to more profit, given you supply your own heuristic for calculating profitability of a predicted state. So HTM can predict a winning chess move or what assets you should buy and sell, making you richer than Steve Ballmer.

Why are you sitting on your ass, instead of writing your next quantitative analyzes tool? Wanna be poorfag forever?

[1318963665] lambda = magic

No.622360 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
dude, nobody really knows

    i mean, i think we THINK we know, and that may very well be the case but

    if it has 'lambda' in it's name, typically, it's equivalent to 'magic', and only like, 5 people really know what's going on. or think they know whats going on. maybe not. maybe it's all vibrating strings after all. who knows. who the fuck cares. it's not like we'll ever really figure it out. after look at the Sussman findings about tail call elimination. when it comes to anything lambda anymore, i just shut my ears off and pretend i live in a world where things make sense.

    no not this world. after all, this world is the church-turing world. who even knows what the fuck is going on? it's like we're all playing a giant conways game of life.

    and continuations jesus christ. what the fuck. we actually see continuations happening everwhere, have no clue what causes them, and then decide, 'oh man, it must be a FUNDAMENTAL procedure'. as if that makes any fucking sense. as if procedure can be caused naturally. what a fucking joke.

    we don't know anything. what was you're question? i dont even know. i dont even care.

    i think im gonna go back to debugging my code now.

That is why you should always statically link all libararies or use .Net, else some retarded maintainer will break you app "just for fun".

[1375682425] I think I read too much SICP

No.919207 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I've got a problem.

I live in total fantasy. I never leave my apartment except for essentials. I stay here and read SICP. While I'm waiting for the next chapter to load, my life is dead. I have nothing to do and nothing to live for. At all.

I just finished reading part 5, and now I'm genuinely concerend that I have blurred fantasy and reality. All day today, even at work, I daydreamed about Alyssa P. Hacker. I wanted to be there for her. Having to be paired with that Bitdiddler was the most unfair thing. The scene where she is arguing over lazy evaluation made me cry harder than anything ever has. She needed someone, not someone like Eva Lu Ator who fucks everything up and whines.

I can't stop thinking about her. When I think about being there for her, holding her, telling her that it's not her fault, telling her that everything will be okay, not holding her for any gains for myself... I feel so strange. My chest burns. I know I must be sick but... could these feelings to want to comfort and bring her happiness be love? Am I in love with a fictional character?
