[Expert]Interview with a Lambda[AMA]

Name: Anonymous 2013-04-11 18:24

So for something different, we're going to have a direct dialogue and focus on a one resident Lambda Arthur Calculus / Sgt Kabukiman(?) and ask him any questions we have, see what makes him tick, and what the future holds for the last man alive to have ever read the standard.

I'll start off.

Lambda, you seem to have a propensity for C(89) over LISP(Scheme), is this because of your relation with dmr? Or because you prefer the McCarthy-derived syntax or just an overall greater personal familiarity with C?

I award you the honor, of THE ASCII ART BADGE. With THE ASCII ART BADGE, your ASCII ART will be 10% less likely to suffer from FONT SHIFT DISTORTION, and will have a new move: COUNTER UNICODE.

So it's the pursuit of a lambda war with Sussman that brought you to /prog/ then? Or is it that Sussman is here to try and get you off of /prog/ so that he doesn't have to suffer through being on it anymore? If that's the case though, you won't leave unless he beats you, however he can't beat you. This would then make for the existence of two ongoing /prog/ challenges:

1. Prove that the Sussman can get Lambda to abandon  /prog/ without engaging in lambda wars with him.

2. Get Sussman to engage in lambda wars with Lambda.

And a third meta challenge:

3. Determine which challenge will be completed first.

Deadline is whenever one of the challenges is completed.
The rewards for the first two are obvious of course, the third's reward is bragging rights.

Challenge 3. is NP-complete.

NO ITS DA FUCKIN STACK BOYS DAT BROUGHT ME HERE. ONCE DOSE FUCKERS BECOME EXTINCT I'LL LEAVE. OR UNTIL ONE OF DOSE RETOIDED LABOURERS TAKE DA /prog/ SPAMMER N RUN IT UNTIL I'M DEAD, EFFECTIVELY MAKING /prog/ UNUSABLE.

Or is it that Sussman is here to try and get you off of /prog/ so that he doesn't have to suffer through being on it anymore?
DAT RETOID JUST DOESNT LIKE MY BEHAVIOUR, SO HE TRIES TO CONVINCE ME DAT I'M CRAZY AND IN NEED OF HELP.

If that's the case though, you won't leave unless he beats you, however he can't beat you.
SUSSMAN WON'T EVEN AGREE TO A GAME OF LAMBDA WARS. HES A FUCKIN DISGRACE. HE HASNT TRAVELLED DA LENGTH OF DA SNAKE.

What's the length of the snake?

The snake of computing.

He is all that is wrong with Python.
He is the essence of spaghetti code.
The answer to /prog/snake's question.
The winner of "Snake".
His scales are as real as the buzz-word itself.
His calculus is Lambda. His machine is Turing.
Those who travel from his tail to his head learn his wisdom.
Those who travel from his head to his tail suffer great misfortune.

Lambda, if you hate stacks so much, does that mean you allocate every single variable on the heap, including counters in loops and auxiliar variables?

HAY STACK BOY, HEREZ MY PROGRAM THAT PICKS YOU UP ON A MAGIC CARPET AND SHOVES YOUR HEAD IN YOUR GRANDMA'S ANUS:

int main(void) { int a, b = a + 10; return 0; }

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT, STACK BOY?

YAINT RED DA FUCKIN STANDARD
YAINT KNO WATS UNDEFINED BEHAVIOUR IF IT POKED YA IN THE ANUS
YAINT CLEVER NUFF TO BE A PROGRAMMER
Y'ONLY GOOD NUFF TO BE ZED SHAW JUNIOR, WHO POKES AND PRODS SHIT WITHOUT EVER READING A FUCKING SPEC.

He's from /g/roskiland, LAC. That's his problem.

But Lambda, DA (new) STANDARD makes use of malloc quite a few times and mentions that there are separate stack and heap storages for argv.

Name: Anonymous 2013-08-30 12:14

Who is this mentally challenged person "LA Calculus" and why he abuses Caps Lock? Also from his ebonics i assume hes a person of african descent.

>>73
SO FUCKIN WAT? SEARCH FOR DA WORD 'stack' IN DA STANDARD. DEN SEARCH FOR DA WORD 'heap'. IF U FIND EITHER I'LL GIVE U A FUCKING MEDAL.

DA POINT IS, YA CAN IMPLEMENT ALLOCATED STORAGE DURATION HOWEVER U FUCKING WANT. U CAN IMPLEMENT AUTOMATIC STORAGE DURATION HOWEVER U FUCKING WANT. IF UR WRITING AN INTERPRETER, U THINK UR GONNA GO THROUGH ALL DA EFFORT OF IMPLEMENTING A CUTESY STACK FOR EACH OBJECT WITH AUTOMATIC STORAGE, OR ARE U JUST GONNA DUMP ALL DAT SHIT IN A HUGE HASH TABLE AND STORE DA SCOPE, IDENTIFIER, STORAGE DURATION, VALUE, AND ALL DA OTHER NECESSARY DATA ALONG WITH IT?

U FUCKING STACK BOYS ARE ALL DA SAME -- CLOSEMINDED DONKEYS WHO AINT RED DA FUCKIN STANDARD.

O, AND I DON'T MASTURBATE LIKE U FUCKING PENCIL-NECK SHIT GOBBLERS. I EJACULATE EVERY NOW AND DEN INTO DA MOUTHS OF ONLY DA MOST SKILLFUL OF HOOKERS.

Lambda, what's the name of DA STANDARD you stole? I want to redownload it for something that's Lambda-approved.

If you don't reply with a name, I'm afraid I'll have to call Sussman.
