Aside about jns' justify; while I could build the new version like CXX=clang++ gmake afterwards LANG=ascii ./justify -i foo.txt -o j.foo.txt no longer works for me; sorry I didn't investigate it. Using jns' justify classic then without my former paragraph-separation strategy. I had wanted to be done part two of my acl2 just-like-make-game. But you would never guess - I have had some difficulty proving measure conjectures for good complexity theorems of my game's applicative media functionality...! The problem isn't hard but you know how things that are not hard can still be frustrating sometimes. Have a distraction: There are two tall temporary fences obstructing the raised, wooden ramp down to the riverside I am haunting recently. The wire fences say "construction" (no other evidence of construction). The entry side has a gap to squeeze through though the lower side does not - if you scramble over and cling to the outside of the railing then jump outwards with sufficient vigor, the slope means it is not so far down. If not construction, the ramp is absolutely swarming with paper wasps in that way fresh, lightly salted wood often is. I feel like wasps get a bad rap. My house mate hates them, but likes bees. That's like saying coyotes are evil wolves (if wolves made honey and didn't hunt? This metaphor is flimsy). When you kill off wasps in residential places, you suffer 20 times the volume in things-the-wasps-would-have-preyed-upon (not just wooden ramps). At least it's complicated. I read jynx's second-to-recent post Lies, Damned Lies, .. recently. That's me to a t as well. There seems to be a bit of demographic undercurrent like us (sez me). You also meet the almosts, or the incipients who bravely weather casual dismissal to hear an odd verse not pulled from a corporate advertising jingle. The most sly counter-narrative I know goes like this: These dissenters have noticed a few tens of cases where bad actors really are bad acting, then threw out the reasonable actors who were mostly minding their own business with the bad bathwater. Computingwise, I am reasoning myself out of reasoning myself into reasoning with case based reasoning. I collected a few articles and some source. Riesbeck seems to have been a lisp hacker. I will read one of his books. Some of the people I know who research around this are alright, though I am deeply mistrustful of ex-90s high budget business friendly java software. I have also already opted for Gabor's MGL sofaras grab bags of linear algebra and statistical decisionmaking (learning/deep learning in this case) go. More controversially, and we will see what Riesbeck convinces me of, it annoys me a lot when people hackily add a notion of inheritance to structs and talk about how fast they are (I'm looking at you too, golangphers) and then do a notion of searching upon them. I feel like this is eerily close to what ANSI Common Lisp's CLOS method combination was already doing in some deeply controversial opinion sense. I haven't finished fathoming my way through that. Lastly, if case based reasoning is a heuristic low context decision maker, what about- every calculus, the worlds of research around modelling nonlinear phase dynamics, ... why would CBR warrant special attention? I did like Douglas Adams' book Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (which is about a software engineer (not the title character) who works at a company that got rich off the military buying some CBR software he wrote). In real life I think this was where CBR's funding/business popularity came from too. Military interest, not Douglas Adams.
