<ELLIOTTCABLE>
failing at school basically
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
somehow staying afloat but fuckme if I know *how*
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
sheer intelligence, I suspect
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
and no, that's not a brag: riding on last-minute fear, craftiness during quizzes / tests, and privilege against missed assignments or forgotten dates … is not how I want to do school -_-

ELLIOTTCABLE: my opinion on J is that it is different enough to be interesting
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
incomprehensibly: I know nearly nothing about it; I thought it just had an interesting syntactic approach, basically
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
tell me more?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
also lol I love it when you read my tweets :P
<purr>
trololol
<incomprehensibly>
ELLIOTTCABLE: it's an array language, so like matlab and I assume R everything's automatically mapped over an array/matrix
<incomprehensibly>
but also it's got a very very powerful vocabulary for manipulating shapes of arrays
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
‘shapes of arrays’
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
hm, interesting
<incomprehensibly>
so the way sql lets you express aggregate operations without loops, J is similar
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I do *nothing* with numbers, so it's so out-of-extent for me to even try and learn things like that /=
<incomprehensibly>
but much more expressive and powerful
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'd need a task to learn it while working on, and everything that seems even remotely relevant is something that I'm very unlikely to ever do
<incomprehensibly>
you should do something with numbers then
<incomprehensibly>
imo
<incomprehensibly>
:p
<incomprehensibly>
anyway there's k and q, which are not free/oss, but are much better at uis etc

Shit. My GBA program runs fine in emulator, but not on EZ-Flash IV cart on the real thing. This will be fun to debug.
