<tankf33der> o/
<tankf33der> FYI
<Regenaxer> ok
karswell has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
<Regenaxer> So he gave up arc?
<tankf33der> a long ago already
<tankf33der> this is just noise and fun
<tankf33der> hype-like post
<Regenaxer> ☺
<jcowan> Ghu, numbers aren't primitive: integer n is a list of t's of the correct length
<jcowan> I should say natural numbers are
<Regenaxer> Perfect
ubLIX has joined #picolisp
<jcowan> OTOH, characters are primitive, and I don't see why they should be
ubLIX is now known as Guest44433
<jcowan> you can really do it all with pairs and ()
<Regenaxer> Linke in pil too, only one single cell internal data type
<jcowan> well, cells, numbers, and symbols
<jcowan> Oh, sorry, misread
<Regenaxer> yes, but internally
<Regenaxer> :)
<jcowan> Externally, though, you have pairs, symbols, and numbers, whereas Bel has pairs, symbols, characters, and I/O streams
<Regenaxer> ok
<jcowan> bit streams, which seems a little too raw for me
<jcowan> also requires you to deal with bit-endianness issues
<Regenaxer> T
<jcowan> if a number is a list, then a character can be a number, a string is a list of numbers, and a symbol is a list of properties
<jcowan> hence pair and () only
<Regenaxer> Pure
* jcowan loves the name Tractatus Pico-Blaesicus
<jcowan> I started to write an implementation of ISLisp in Common Lisp called Blesity, but got bogged down
<jcowan> but Lisp is a good old word; if Lisp had been invented in England 1000 years ago (which is possible in principle, just as a mathematical device) it would have been "Wlispjan"
