I recently wrote an article called "So You Want To Get Into Theoretical Computer Science," which is mostly about how to read a bunch of papers to figure out some obscure, heretofore unimplemented (outside of academia)…
I found "Writing an Interpreter in Go" to be a much better read. It was actually completely portable to C++ and Rust, and that made it useful to pretty much anyone.
Olympus WS-600 dictation device. It's a slim thing about the size of a cigarette lighter, but it has actual physical buttons, and a built-in USB connector to dump it to my laptop. I review it every morning, and…
There are a few projects on my github (elfsternberg) that I've used Hy for. One thing that I've also done is write the first draft in Hy, and then used Hy2Py to generate the version that I'm going to publish. This does…
It's sorta clever how Elon Musk convinced Ayn Rand-besotted train-crazy tech bros to invest in his testbed for a Clarke Mass Driver.
I had two beers Wednesday. A glass of wine Monday night. The week prior was a bit like the same. Some weeks it's "none", some weeks it's "more than seven times in seven days." I don't think that constitutes a problem.…
Ditto. Used them all of my professional life. I've also had a Dell, a Toshiba, an HP, and two Macbooks. The Thinkpads were the only things that worked well. I've been using an IdeaPad (The Thinkpad's consumer-oriented…
Interesting, but woefully incomplete since it doesn't include a single turnstile-based statement. I'm still looking for the cheat sheet that includes an explanation for how to read and comprehend anything written by…
Yes. Liferea. I've been using it pretty much since the Death of Usenet.
I don't see any suggestions for a replacement technology.
Great work! There are a couple of other projects like this. Are you familiar with Wisp or Outlet? This is good work; I've been trying to hack my own Lisp -> JS transpiler, and not having much work. Your 'Nodes' file…
Ditto everyone else's comments. This is a really good book. Readers should be aware that Irvine's goal of "persistent tranquility" isn't really what the Stoics had in mind; their objective was much more radical, in the…
