<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@film_girl" class="u-url mention">@<span>film_girl</span></a></span> I assume "professional productivity" is less demanding than "play, school and work". So in order of performance: Dell Pro, Dell, Dell Pro Max?</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@film_girl" class="u-url mention">@<span>film_girl</span></a></span> maybe it'll prompt apple to move away from this naming scheme though</p>

<p>This is the dumbest naming strategy I’ve ever seen in my life. Way to take the worst things from Apple and somehow make them even more confusing. This is not an improvement, Dell! via <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/6/24325799/dell-pro-max-premium-plus-ces-laptop-pc-rebrand-announcement" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theverge.com/2025/1/6/24325799</span><span class="invisible">/dell-pro-max-premium-plus-ces-laptop-pc-rebrand-announcement</span></a></p>

<p>First problem I hit is comments don't work. The documentation specifically says text in parenthesis are comments, but it isn't accepted.</p><p>After some staring at the docs, I realize in all the examples, there are spaces. It turns out (Comment) is not a comment, but ( Comment ) is a comment. Because ( isn't a pure operator built in the language, rather there's a FORTH word ( that eats all words until ) is found. Holy crap. I never thought I'd say this but maybe it IS possible to self-host too hard</p>
<p>I *think* I'm doing this in pforth, for the simple reason that gforth, uh, isn't maintained anymore it seems, and so got dropped out of Debian Testing (which I have now)? I *think* I'd be *happier* using RetroForth, which is a "modern" Forth, but I guess it's better to learn the standardized, ANS Forth first. Even though everyone hates ANS Forth? Including the inventor of Forth…?</p><p>My biggest fear is there appears to be no way to read numbers written in ASCII from a file. We're predating ASCII</p>
