Pinned
I guess I should have an introduction post to pin then, huh?
Hi! I'm Aki~
I'm a low-level/systems software and hardware engineer~
I like to joke that i'm a IBM S/360 tsukumogami in the form of the catgirl but that might be more than just a silly joke at this point.
I hope to see you around!

I'm a simple girl with simple needs. For instance, a nap and some biiiiig squishes, ( and maybe a cookie or two )

Another "fun fact", Verilog, Verilog-AMS, and SystemVerilog reference a `file_path_spec` in their grammars, but from what I've seen they never actually define it anywhere in the standards :v

Once again I'm distraught at how abysmal the FOSS EDA space is for integrated SI/PI/EMI simulation and solving.

Reading the later Verilog specs, and I wonder how much of the grammar was adjusted due to shit vendor tooling and IEEE not wanting to break compatability.
Because, jeez, there are some absolute moonbrain choices in here.

I'm convinced that IEEE took verilog syntax, then told 15 different people to write little chunks for the grammar, and then stabled it all together, this is so bad.

At this point I think "omarchy" should be classified as a slur, ugh, i'm so tired of hearing about it,

Also, I'm still trying to unfuck my sleep schedule and get back to regularly streaming,
It's hard, but hopefully I can drag it forward over the weekend and get things wiggled out
It helps I have a 10AM meeting saturday, so, we'll see.

A lot of meta grammars make replicated nesting annoying to express, like in EBNF:
tri = val, [ ",", val, [ ",", val ] ] ;
Which is why for the one I'm hacking at, I want to add a shorthand for it, kinda like this maybe?
tri = val, ( ",", val, %)^2;
Does that read fine?
tri = val, [ ",", val, [ ",", val ] ] ;

Was cleaning up some files that were not checked into a git repo and I found a `NOTES` file I wrote, and all it contains is this
