<OriansJ`>Hagfish: I find the hex in the martian hilarious. <OriansJ`>they somehow managed to include G and Z as hex inputs but when converted to 0 and 2; the result makes zero sense <OriansJ`>4C 4E 43 48 68 65 78 64 69 74 4F 4E 52 43 4D 50 2C 4F 50 45 4E 46 49 4C 45 20 2F 75 73 72 2F 6C 69 92 2F 68 61 62 <xentrac>huh, I would have thought that was printable ASCII <xentrac>I mean there's nothing below 20 or above 7E <OriansJ`>and then after that they have 66 75 63 6B 20 74 68 65 20 6D 6F 6E 6B 65 79 20 6F 6E 20 74 75 65 73 64 61 79 <OriansJ`>which makes the previous bit look insane <OriansJ`>I mean "LNCHhexdit" "ONRCMP,OPE" "NFILE /usr" "/li/hab" could have been a reasonable start of a message. despite the fact NASA misspelled hexedit and they have a folder /usr/li/ which they probably ment /usr/lib or /usr/libexec <OriansJ`>but that last bit just doesn't make any freaking sense <OriansJ`>I spent like 30 minutes to see if I was wrong about any of the charactors in 66 75 63 6B 20 74 68 65 20 6D 6F 6E 6B 65 79 20 6F 6E 20 74 75 65 73 64 61 79; In the movie the bottom lines are: 66 75 63 6B Z0 74 68 65 2G 6D 6F 6E 6B 65 79 20 6F 6E 20 74 75 65 73 64 61 79 <OriansJ`>and when correcting or dropping, it still doesn't make any freaking sense when in comparison to the lines above them <OriansJ`>seriously? "fuck t" "he monkey" " on tuesday" <OriansJ`>but perhaps they manually converted from ascii to hex and the person doing it took some liberties after the first 3 lines because they got bored? ***stikonas_ is now known as stikonas
<Guest61109>Hi all. I'm trying to find a link I saw a few months ago. It was a list/table comparing C, Rust, Zig, and handful of other language on some metric that I can't remember. I think it was which tools you needed to bootstrap the compiler from source? I think the use-case is something like "in the future you have a copy of the language source code and zero binaries, how hard is it to get up and <Guest61109>running" maybe? I think Zig came out on top but I really don't remember. Maybe it had to do with cross-compiling? Hopefully someone knows what webpage I'm talking about. <Hagfish>someone said "that was quick to leave...", but no answer to your question was provided, i'm afraid ***terpri_ is now known as terpri

<xentrac>not quite what you described, but also very much up my alley <christianbundy>yeah, I think my brain's compression algorithm is a bit more lossy than I'd like ***christianbundy is now known as Guest17966
