2026-02-19 19:06:38 +0100gentaurooff-topic on quotes. In Spanish, we write like this: «…» while in Danish we do it the other way around: »…« (but only for headliners)

2026-02-19 19:03:27 +0100 <Clint> tomsmeding: i also did and i'm a native english speaker
2026-02-19 19:03:26 +0100 <edwardk> __monty__: it was a behavioral model before we had a working fpga
2026-02-19 19:03:05 +0100 <edwardk> gentauro: i know myrtle. our fpga product is already out and in the marketplace.

2026-02-19 19:01:58 +0100 <gentauro> tomsmeding: replace "competent" with "cool cats" then ;)
2026-02-19 19:01:37 +0100 <tomsmeding> I naturally read that '"competent"' as scare quotes, i.e. "allegedly competent but I'm not sure I agree"
2026-02-19 19:00:53 +0100 <gentauro> edwardk: found it -> «We partner with all three companies whose FPGAs power accelerator cards for data centers, namely AMD, Altera and Achronix». Perhaps you should reach out?
2026-02-19 19:00:52 +0100 <tomsmeding> gentauro: interesting, I guess that shows that I live outside of the anglosphere
2026-02-19 19:00:48 +0100 <__monty__> Or markdown's *emphasis asterisks*.
2026-02-19 19:00:24 +0100 <tomsmeding> like this, or if you want to stay with ascii, like _this_ :)
2026-02-19 19:00:18 +0100 <mauke> made with "real" beef
2026-02-19 19:00:04 +0100 <gentauro> and how would you put emphasis then? In «inglés»?
2026-02-19 18:59:40 +0100 <geekosaur> that said, the UK has been using single qotes the same way (emphasis / focus) in news emails for a couple decades now
2026-02-19 18:58:57 +0100 <geekosaur> it always bugs me
2026-02-19 18:58:53 +0100 <geekosaur> tomsmeding: sadly, people have been using quotes that way for several years in the US
2026-02-19 18:57:37 +0100 <gentauro> I think it was at IFCP Berlin where they made like a physical square shooter game in both 2D and 3D

2026-02-19 18:57:05 +0100 <gentauro> however, I can see from the website that they have removed `FPGAs` :(
2026-02-19 18:56:55 +0100 <tomsmeding> that's not how they work in english :p
2026-02-19 18:56:46 +0100 <gentauro> tomsmeding: I use the quotes to put empasis ;)
2026-02-19 18:55:52 +0100 <tomsmeding> why the scare-quotes?
2026-02-19 18:53:46 +0100 <gentauro> they had some pretty "competent" Haskellers
2026-02-19 18:53:37 +0100 <gentauro> edwardk: do you know https://myrtle.ai/about/ ? I recall them from ICFP back in the days (no .ai domain though)

2026-02-19 18:47:56 +0100 <tomsmeding> the design of the program that is to use the fpga, I presume
2026-02-19 18:47:03 +0100 <__monty__> The behavior as programmed, rather than the actual programmable gates?

2026-02-19 18:44:22 +0100 <edwardk> indeed
2026-02-19 18:42:04 +0100 <juri_> I think this is the second time I have run into you, and found out you're doing what i'm up to... but if i remember right, in the central north of the states? :)
2026-02-19 18:41:20 +0100 <juri_> edwardk: i'm still working on getting my FPGAs supported by clash.

2026-02-19 18:35:58 +0100 <__monty__> To be able to prototype programs for the FPGAs in Haskell?
2026-02-19 18:31:30 +0100 <edwardk> juri_: I basically prototyped positron.ai that way, modeling the behavior of the FPGAs we use.
