only one rule itt - if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all

lately there's a lot of dicks being mean or judgmental or crude when people are trying to have a good time, so this is a thread where only positivity is allowed. the mods agree with me and will probate on sight anyone caught harshing the mellows of anyone else itt, i assume. no eggs, no cucks, no macchs, no guys. just smiles and good times. post a good joke you heard, a cute picture you saw, a fond memory you have, a fascinating tale you've read, and encourage the chillaxing of each other so we may post in positivity. if it's chill, it belongs in this thread.

overt attempts at bringing bad juju to this pow wow will be dealt with swiftly and banfully, i assure you. you have been warned. now break out the metaphorical pipeweed and crank the amp of life up to 11, because its the "ITT we are feeling only good vibes" thread 2015!!!

computer code can be understood as a set of instructions describing a process. an early example in the book mentioned in the wikipedia article is finding the square root of a number. the computer code used to write that program is, therefore, a description of the process of finding the square root of a number. using metalinguistic abstraction, you can break parts of a process down into abstract procedures. so i might have a procedure for finding an average of two numbers. once i've made that into its own procedure and given that procedure a name(like "average" or "mean"), i no longer need to know about how to find an average. it no longer matters to me that i need to find the sum of the two numbers divided by two, all that matters is that i have this operation "average". this technique can be applied to break down very large problems into very general solutions which are made of small, simple to understand pieces, and i no longer need to understand every piece at once. if this is done correctly, i can produce what is effectively a brand new computational language for talking about processes.

so the simple way of putting it is that a programming language like Scheme allows you to, instead of tackling a problem using the basic Scheme tools and operations, invent an entirely new language within Scheme and then tackle your problem using that.

i was never really into beck but recently someone told me they thought i'd really like his album midnite vultures and they were totally right, this album is fuckin sweet and i can't stop listening to it. seems like beck is a pretty prolific artist, can anyone recommend me some other good beck music? also other cool music like this. extremely chill and fun for meditating/focusing chi.

Beck's records cover an unusually wide variety of genres. Midnite Vultures was definitely his funk party album and there really isn't anything else in his catalogue that sounds like it, although Guero is probably the next most upbeat.

Jamiroquai is excellent fun dance funk with fantastic musicianship. Dynamite is my favorite.
