actually I have most of that LR stuff covered if I want.
LALR(1) is just LR(1) or SLR(1) with extra steps.
the other LL stuff is harder. I don't know how to do it. I mean, conceptually i do more or less, but I can't code it yet.
CLR? unless they mean corner parsing i don't know what that is. Nobody uses corner parsers
same with precedence parsers - too old school. went out of fashion probably in the 1980s or 90s i'm guessing.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Well, enjoy yourself, and you might try Walt's recipe:Quote: Walt Whitman, preface to the 1855 edition of 'Leaves of Grass'
“This is what you shall do; Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body.”

Yeah I suppose I could do that. Or I could finish the AutoUpdate github doodad I'm working on.

My motherboard is USB2 only - I didn't worry about it because I didn't know my external drives were all USB3 ...

I did - to put in the PCI Express slot on the refurb I use. I bought it specifically because it came with a video card w/HDMI so it plugs into TV for both working remote and as a media box.
So I open it up to install the PCI Express USB 3 card . . . and find, with only two internal slots, that the one and only PCI Express slot has the video card . . .

I like how this diagram pretty much ignores the fact that USB 1.0/1.1 have ever existed.
But then, they'd probably have to redo the diagram to use a logarithmic scale so anything's visible at all at the lower end...

Nobody wants to acknowledge USB 1.0. We're all just going to pretend like it never happened.
Nothing to see here. *waves hand in jedi-like fashion*

You don't need USB3 for a mouse and keyboard, so the "problem" is more to do with the way functionality kept getting tacked on to USB.
It's reached the point where USB-C is probably the biggest SPoF in the history of human endeavour -- and one of the biggest PiTAs, unless you're a lover of dongles.

True.
I have a 4-port USB 1.1 hub I still use for my mouse, keyboard, a USB lamp and charging devices. Speed is entirely irrelevant.

I get a HUGE difference between USB3 connected external drives than USB2 connected ones (and these are all USB3 drives). Definitely worth the price of the adapter card I got for my old machine.

Really pretty hard, or so it seems.
So I'm still working on this early 90's standard, which is pretty impossible to read.
It's basically like this:
You have a code being a certain data field, like 123456 for weight and 654321 for quality.
This goes in a header with two leading zeroes and the fields length (two digits) and precision (one digit).
So a part of a header could be: "0012345605200654321020".
Then comes the value lines, which is just the values, like "00322A ".
The complete (simplified) document would look like:
H0012345605200654321020
V00322A So taking the header and values we get the C# values of 3.22m for weight and "A" for quality.
I've got documentation with all fields, their lengths, possible values, and which fields are mandatory and optional or conditional.
So now I've got this entire document which is completely according to the specs, which must be read by some third party application.
And it fails with an ACCESS VIOLATION EXCEPTION!? 
No "failed to parse value 'x' for field 'y'" or "missing mandatory field 'z'", just an access violation.
So I've got some example files that I know that work, so I decide to look at one and dissect the header and fields one by one (I've written a little program for that) and see if I can spot a difference.
I can spot two differences, the sample file has a lot of optional fields with invalid values and it's missing 20 characters in the value line.
We decided to add those optional fields to our own document, including the invalid values (but with correct length) and it works 
Why on earth is an invalid document read without issues and does a valid document fail with an access violation? 
You can bet your ass that's not the only thing wrong with this application
Anyway, I'm now waiting on a reply from someone who's on a vacation for the next two weeks or so.
Good times
