Thu Jan 21 17:35:42 UTC 2016 <asciilifeform> and also don't wait for me to write a fits-in-head and provably non-misbehaving btc client, even though i would much like to, know exactly how, and even have bits'n'pieces sitting around. because instead of this i'm stuck doing pointless crud in ???????, so as to eat.

Thu Jan 07 14:18:06 UTC 2016 <BingoBoingo> <jurov> whether "stratum" protocol fits in head for easy control, that's another question. << A lot of this.

Fri Sep 18 17:38:44 UTC 2015 <ascii_field> understand, i have no objection to tools such as computerized theorem-proving, data flow analysis, etc. except in that these are put forward as ~substitutes for fits-in-head simplicity~.
Fri Sep 18 17:20:39 UTC 2015 <ascii_field> my other problem is that i have not yet found an implementation of ml language that fits-in-head.

Fri Sep 11 13:48:47 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> it is important to know why items such as picolisp and mulisp exist - compactness. (and to a lesser extent, 'fits in head'.)
