The resonant chugging sound of the gushing reminded early trappers of a steamboat—thus giving the town its name. The spring ceased its chugging in 1909 when it was damaged by the blasting of railroad crews laying track along the Yampa River. | ======================== | Wed.Oct,20201007 | ======================== | Julia and Rust are the 2 young technically oriented languages I see as ` competition to CoSy .

It would be great if Jaymin Patel includes the adiabatic tradeoff of gravitational and kinetic energy which creates atmospheric temperature gradients -- not some spectral filtering . One ` missing link in the equations in the AlGoreWarming debates is the calculation of the temperature component of pressure -- which has been thoroughly shown to be the ` cause of the excess of bottom of atmosphere temperatures over their radiative equilibria across planets . It would be great to have some evaluation of the material at http://cosy.com/#PlanetaryPhysics and particularly if we have agreement on the calculation of equilibrium as function of spectra at http://cosy.com/Science/ComputationalEarthPhysics.html#EqTempEq .

Einstein did not revoke Newton . And it's energy is the integral of it's force just as any other force . And as r goes to infinity , the force goes to 0 so gravity computes as a negative . ( google it ) Gravitational MUST be included in the energy balance equations and in fact explains how much faster ( hotter ) molecules are at the bottoms of atmospheres than their tops -- or their radiative equilibrium .

The first thing which must be understood is that the notion of some spectral ` trapping of a heat gradient is utter nonscience . The Divergence Theorem demands the interior of a ball at radiative equilibrum have the same mean temperature as its effective radiative surface . The excess seen at the bottoms of planets' atmospheres ( the ~ 33K in Earth's case , 400K in Venus's ) is due to the adiabatic tradeoff of gravitational ( potential ) and kinetic ( heat ) energy acting on the mass of the atmosphere . Only when it is understood that that temperature gradient , extending on into planets' interiors is due to mass , not spectrum , can the minuscule changes in radiative equilibrium due to minuscule changes in effective radiative surface and spectrum be calculated . Hansen et al , https://pubs.giss.nasa.gov/abs/ha04600x.html , 1981 , could conceivably have done such calculations for the asserted increase in effective altitude of the radiative surface for CO2's bit of the spectrum , but instead claimed w/o derivation or calculation the entire temperature gradient for spectral ` trapping -- contributing greatly to the retardation of this field for 40 years . | 0812 | Liang Ng | Thu 1:54 PM | Facebook Is your logo a character in some language .

Gravity is what defines ` up and ` down . And what happens to a parcel of air too hot or cold for its position versus the gradient is an obvious illustration of the tradeoff . And the same quantitative Law of Gravity applies to every upward or downward oscillation of a molecule even in still air . It is gravity which forms the gradient . And it is only gravitation energy , which computes as a negative wrt kinetic or radiant ( google it if you are not familiar with the fact ) which allows the equations to balance , ie: be adiabatic . Oh , and there is NO claim that there is no " greenhouse effect " . CO2 etc , as a component determining our spectrum as seen from outside does thereby effect our radiative equilibrium . But I think it an open question as to in which direction . | ======================== | Mon.Nov,20201102 | ======================== | 1 Problem, 8 Programming Languages (C++ vs Rust vs Clojure vs Haskell...) code_report | https://youtu.be/zrOIQEN3Wkk | ======================== | Mon.Nov,20201109 | ======================== | | 0832 | On the 4k screen having tasks startiny up in the i( 0 0 )i corner was irritating d1 @ getPos `( sys Tui posXY )` Dv! | Stores current upper left corner for restart | 0842 | FB : To create a CoSy webservice , this looks like a fairly short path . https://www.facebook.com/groups/PROGRAMMINGFORTH/permalink/2527022067597812 https://www.facebook.com/Bob.Armstrong.CoSy/posts/10159174198446617 https://www.dyalog.com/user-meetings/dyalog20/programme.htm D05: Ron Murray : Time Travel Debugging and Statistical Distributions Interesting to learn Ron's biography & of the Beta family of probability distributions . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_distribution | 1221 | | ======================== | Wed.Nov,20201111 | ======================== | | 20201111.1424 |

A serious limitation at this point is that { ... } are not nestable . I believe some variants of RetroForth do have nestable ` quotations . | -- One of the reasons I followed Arthur Whitney into K rather than Iverson & Hui into J when there was a fork in APL was the the simplicity and transparency of Arthur's structure . Verbs are simply defined by { ... } and associated with a name , eg: plus : { x + y } in the current dictionary , a pair of associated lists of names and values . CoSy follows that , but not at the level of Forth definitions . Had enough to bushwhack figuring out how to implement dynamic lists and APL , K , vocabulary . When out at ForthDay 2015 , hanging out at the Bean Scene in Sunnyvale I happened to be introduced to Ken Thompson and we chatted about an hour . He said reference counting was a dated tek compared to heap . I had wished Arthur was there to defend his reference counting . My course following his was set in a conversation waiting for an elevator after a small presentation he made at Union Bank of Switzerland in Manhattan who were funding his creation of K . Arthur had commented that he never moved anything . By the elevator he elaborated that he kept an inventory list of empty 2^n byte slots , n > perhaps 4 , of , well , I think best thought of as addresses spaces . and when a ref count returned to 0 , freed the slot . I think , in fact , that simplicity is part of the world class speed of K . Given the ` crystalline nature of CoSy 's lists of lists , anything other than reference accounting offends my sense of . well , accounting .

Bob Armstrong > John Swallow Absolutely ! One of Ron Paul's important notion is ` localism . If I were to propose a constitutional amendment it would be that people living in cities with over half a million pop couldn't have a damn thing to say about how rural people care for the environment which is their life to them . The urban feedlot herds , living on concrete , are incredibly ignorant about how their feed & water troughs stay filled and their stalls heat & cooled and lighted . | ======================== | Fri.Nov,20201127 | ======================== | Bob Armstrong > Greg Jenkins | https://www.facebook.com/groups/PROGRAMMINGFORTH/permalink/2541168692849816/?comment_id=2541778849455467&reply_comment_id=2543173225982696 A feature I like in Reva is being able to lay down multiple named entry points to a definition . I use it not just to make things simpler than using alias , but to create simple variations . Eg: : _cut _i : cut ( v i -- v ) dup i# >r cut\ r> 1 =if dsc then ; | cuts string at Idxs , Arthur Whitney's def | Generally , partitions a list into sublists beginning at indices . discloses if singleton index Generally CoSy verbs expect CoSy lists as arguments . But words prefixed with ` _ use ' _i to take raw numbers off the stack and convert them to 1 item CoSy lists .

In a nutshell, the rule of the market place is choice. Its essential logic is or and its adverb is any. You may do or not do business with any counterparty you can find. The tool of the state is force. Its essential logic is and and its adverb is all. All must, each and everyone must abide by the dictates of the state under peril of the use of force. text> ` \CoSyWeb\y20\blog.txt >F
