Book recommendations?

charles stross: ACCELERANDO & karl schroeder: LADY OF MAZES [pref'bly in that order] are respective buckets of rocket fuel on a bonfire of coalescent ~virtuality tech/metaphysics * & justina robson did something very strange to sci-fantasy in LIVING NEXT DOOR TO THE GOD OF LOVE * i can go on but spare my thumb - there is something called "hardcopy" & now i think on't you probably are some geographical Where such as would have an >address< in the archaic sense? (being as how this brand of information dissemination is dense enough per burst it can afford to take its what to many would no doubt seem inordinate time designing each one)

Restlessness?

bloody nested integrals

segi thaki watching them squirm around the containing solution looking for an expression of same the terms of wch will enable them to see the back of their own heads is no doubt sublime but not in immediate terms restful nor what an academic, as distinct from eg a politician an aspiring porn star a hardware engineer or generally any sadomasochist, would be likely to call satisfactory )unless in a fit of virulent workaholicism wch for once i am not)

in a habitable country i would probably take up gardening * bit hard to tell what be the local equvalent innan um all the babel & bedlam but i'm thinking on it

A thankyou note (I think)

in what i gather is common latterday norteamericano RightThinking TruSpeak:

YES!

there is that about a well-turned integrate than wch naught is more quietly but sublimely satisfying

when same furthermore puts paid to 29 yrs (documented) of at times less than hilarious confusion one is tempted to add more, but no less hyperbolic, adjectives

even, yea verily, more screech marks:

!!! ...

-paternally dutiful & considerate as thousands of examples demonstrate i am i will spare you the rest * save that i cannot in good conscience refrain from for clarity's sake adding:

Thoughts on JPEG

Jpeg cmp looks related to penrose tilings appl'd =ly along iterative d?

An encouragement

"kyppist"
var eg adh slysast til adh sdpa ykkur 4um stykkjum til

but when better to sjalfur gerast sekur um an egregious typo than when waxing sententious about the next man's trivial ditto

svo hvadh veit eg mayhap neither of you propose to settle for fewer * m/iskyggilegu moti for you 2 qua proximate but would do the gene pool no harm

An etymological explanation

I replied something about 'grampa', to which I got back:

>gramps<, my dear fellow * an other species entirely §§ though hh presumably will not take note of the distinction until in any event ripe for initiation into the mystic arcana of etymology * but 'twere remiss of me ('as a gramps) to not warn you * kyppist i kynidh er 1s gott adh vera i astandi godhs skata medh fyrirvara

A Birthday Wish

hr hannes helgi

& are terms >jpg ; >gif =ally fracmostract or are they so umframarchaic as to be abbreviations of what were once called "words" & treated of as somehow "basic units" of what was thought of as the exhaustive referent of term >language< towit phonetic encodings &/or symbolic graphic representations of same

an abstract answer

Gif er meira eins og mósaíkmynd, jpeg eins og fraktal abstraktlistaverk

a question, or the start of a conversation?

how do >jpg ; >gif translate into archaic?

A jab at smugness?

first time i've seen an emoticon ("last resort of the affectively illiterate") actively looking insufferably smug § just you wait * my penchant for the flamboyant though subtle has not blinded me to the wiles of disinformative stolidity just i was preoccupied & in a hurry * & the sun was in my eyes

No context, no known decoding

- the > () the [], the > or as the case may be < {} the ~ * i sometimes think this must be a "law of nature" * at any rate its semantic content is commensurate & in fact as far as i can tell exactly = to that of the phrase * though please do not quote my heretical use of all that proscribed terminology
