<mth> I heard about an air traffic control system written in Ada
<mth> but indeed very niche

<DocScrutinizer05> yeah, just those projects that need maximum reliability and ideally methods to verify correctness of code
<DocScrutinizer05> though I think the latter probably is still impossible

<kyak> wpwrak: what's that "attack" you've mentioned?
<kyak> can't seem to find any information about this

<wpwrak> kyak: that was a real gnat :) the insect, mosquito. they're supposed to be nocturnal, and let you in peace during the day. but this one was evidently exploring a new lifestyle.
<larsc> they are evolving!
<wpwrak> they are. they're getter damn good at hiding. a few years ago, i could just turn on the light and they'd just freeze in place. dark spots on a white wall. now they hide in crevices.
<wpwrak> i've already given up on hunting them down individually, and just gas the entire bedroom. of course that means that i'll have to sit on the computer for a while, waiting for the air there to become breathable again ...
<larsc> that's what you get for killing only those that are bad at hiding in the first place

<DocScrutinizer05> well, tbh I've been biten by gnats at daytime several times already. And the by far worst gnat attack (literally a cloud to darken the sky) was in south of France next to a small runnel, during early dawn, while the night we slept relatively calm. Werner and me both same moment woke up and ran screaming, pulling our sleeping bags behind us
<DocScrutinizer05> the bites are still visible on both sides of my neck
<DocScrutinizer05> after almost 40 years

<wpwrak> larsc: yeah. i hope they'll appreciate my new non-discriminatory approach :)
<wpwrak> DocScrutinizer05: were you camping near a bioweapons research facility with lax containment practices ? :)
<DocScrutinizer05> no idea :-)
<DocScrutinizer05> the French, you know
<DocScrutinizer05> was near Aix-en-Provence
<wpwrak> maybe that's where they breed the Le Pens, and there was some cross-species contamination
<DocScrutinizer05> or maybe Arles
<DocScrutinizer05> Carmargue known to breed gnats
<DocScrutinizer05> I guess they had a weekend trip to next town
<DocScrutinizer05> for whatever reason we planned to visit Saintes Maries de la Mer, but we found no way to arrive there alive ;-P
<wpwrak> on your next trip, you went to somalia, to relax from all the stress :)
<DocScrutinizer05> hehe
