at this level of functioning. time to redline.
i know i can solve what is in front of me. I have all the knowledge i need, it's simply understanding that's elusive.
it's a good place to be in all things considered. i can redline my brain for a bit - i use to have to worry about mania when i did that, but not any more. yay pharma. in any case, i should have my lalr(1) parser doing what i want it to by the time the dust settles.
rawr.
you can't stop me.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

honey the monster, codewitch wrote: lalr
The Dutch word for speaking drunken gibberish is "lallen" (which would make the speaker a "laller", although I don't think that's a word) so every time I read LALR I think you're drunk and typing gibberish.
I don't know about the former, but the latter is certainly true

As CS acronyms go, it's not too bad. At least it has a vowel.
Computer scientists usually have to give complicated names to things to make it "theirs" but in this case i think they went with something brief instead. Because "bottom up parsing with one token of lookahead" is just verbose. And so is BUPWOToL

Look-Ahead Left-to-Right Parser... I'm pretty sure that sounds like drunken gibberish to a lot of people as well
|

the LR isn't exactly "left to right"
the L in it means "left to right" and the R means it creates right derivations (parses from bottom up basically - from the leaves of the tree to the root)
contrast that with an LL parser, that also parses left to right, but creates left derivations (parses from top down, a tree and then the leaves)

Hard (well, maybe not) to think they would go that far. It is no secret that they want all customers on a subscription basis, not one time license. I just got an IoT device that requires VS2017 or 9 and an SDK. The SDK said it couldn't install on my W7 dev machine. I would guess that, once W7 is "out", the W10 subscription $ will show up. Hard to fault them, that is what all companies want now. All subscriptions, on their cloud. We are doing more with Linux and some AWS stuff as well as Sharepoint. Even some Open Source stuff is being re-released with subscription license. Want the new features? Pay up. Can't blame them, got to pay the bills.
I owe, I owe, so off to work I go.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I could tolerate a subscription model if their "bug fixes" actually fixed bugs, rather than adding useless features and (new, shiny) icons. As it is, I would consider a subscription to be throwing good money after bad.
Linux with OpenOffice or some such is looking more attractive by the day. If only I could find an IDE as good as MSVC...

That was a little out of this world.

I would never have got IAPETUS from yin yang body.
I got till ape contained in suit(or an anagram), but with yin-yang, I immediately go to a tomoe or a magatama.

If I'd gone for "yin-yang moon" it would have been over way too quickly!

I've ever only solved one CCC and that was when everyone started "drawing" images with weird symbols.
Years later and my head still isn't bent and twisted enough to solve even the easiest CCC's (let alone this one, who the hell has ever heard of IAPETUS?) 
Here's one for you: Power tool hangs out on CP with crazy losers (6, 6)

Dalek Dave is 5 and 4, not 6 and 6.

So he's not the answer (in fact, DD is never the answer  )
Although I must admit I looked up his CCC article for some inspiration on this one

I'm afraid he's one of the crazy losers

We have a winner!
I never realized "losers" is an anagram of my name until now.
Funny how this fit exactly into the CCC with "crazy" being a hint for "anagram".
Quite brilliant if I dare say so myself
Anyway you're not up for tomorrow as it wasn't my turn to begin with
This has been fun though, maybe I'll start to appreciate this CCC thing sometime

I did. And tomorrow we will visit Mimas[^], the Death Star.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
