Hoping rePalm ends up there, too! https://dmitry.gr/?r=05.Projects&proj=27.%20rePalm

i am doing MIPS first (for V-tech Helio), but i will eventually

Awesome. I was looking at SASD for my Palm VII just yesterday. :)

Jules and GitHub Copilot Agent suffice for similar workflows with less setup.

I've not tried Claude Code for Web but assume it would be similar. https://code.claude.com/docs/en/claude-code-on-the-web

Copilot Agent and Claude Code use their own sandbox, which requires less setup but is also quite limited. With your own cloud setup, agents can perform better end to end testing, including database dependencies and specific tool calls.

Agents have been around for decades. Some of these patterns pre-exist the current LLM boom.

Yep—many of these predate LLMs.

Display being bright even on the lowest setting:

I wonder about rshifting the raster bytes...

i came from imaginary numbers which were extended to make quaternions.

i, j, k comes from FORTRAN's implicit types -- by default, names starting with I-N are integers and all other names are real.

this is much older ; Joseph Fourier was already using "i" and "j" for indices in the 1800s. See page 209: https://www.google.ca/books/edition/OEuvres_de_Fourier_Th%C3...

The context is i, j, k as indices in programs. No doubt FORTRAN was influenced by prior use such as you cite. But in no case does i used as an index come from i designating an imaginary number, which is what I aimed to refute.

Representing dimensions as indexable rows and columns of vectors or matrices was done on paper in the 1800s.

Pascal and Ada are Algol syntaxed relative to most languages.

Redis' author also made jimtcl, so I don't think the lack of a small engine was the gap

You're replying to Redis' author.

Thanks! Good catch...

Please be clearer about this on the site!

The site is pretty clear: "Free and works in browser", "Processed locally", "Private". But apparently the site (sorry for the harsh word, but I can't interpret it any other way) lies.

"is incorrect" is slightly less harsh, but in this case, I'd call it a lie. It's a rather subtle but important implementation detail. I don't think the author (who is here in this thread) is necessarily malicious because of this, but, well, it's a lie.

This is why I only use agent mode on other people's computers

This is the way.
