what if my init system was a Prolog runtime?

Not only can you describe the desired system state and have your init figure out dependencies, you can list just the dependencies and have your init set up all possible system states until you find one to your liking!

what if it too was emacs?

Emacs as pid 1 is a classic of the genre, but a prolog too? Wouldn't a Kanren make more sense or is elisp not good for that?

Sounds like the real horseshoe theory is that nerds of all kinds of heterodox political stripes will eventually reinvent/discover Lisp and get freaky with it. A common thread connecting at least RMS, PG, Eich, Moldbug, suzuran, jart, Aphyr, self and me.

So it's called the National Novel Writing Month, but like what nation? Should non-US writers have their own ones?

Also I just saw they have a logo and it's an insult to heraldry.

If it were about that, maybe they hadn't decided I'm NCO material and forced me into a full year of service instead of half.

Graham Chapman was, ironically enough, impeccable as the straight man of the group.

That's a weird place to have some opinions about jewish and trans people. I like to look at the sinfest subreddit every now and then and that sub really likes to sneer at people who have weird opinions on those topics (such as the author of the titular webcomic).

Could be a Chinese market thing. They like their number eights.

I think killing someone is a pretty major violation of that person's bodily autonomy.

Clarification: he bought creativeai.org. Alex J. Champandard bought creative.ai https://nitter.poast.org/alexjc/status/1828434378864599402#m

Edit: I like Rex's expressed intentions more than Champandard's.
