There's a very good Brazilian series "Desejos S.A."—literally "Wishes Ltd" but translated into English as "Whatever, whenever". People call a mysterious phone number, voicemail prompt tells them "At the tone, speak your…
Transparent attempt at whitewashing Boris's image to sell some books. When he got caught hiding millions in assets to avoid paying his creditors, first he tried to bamboozle the judge. Then, he bought a worthless…
When asked for his opinion about space travel, J. L. Borges replied “Is there any other kind?”
Has anyone seen publicly accessible content from the startup-ish MS&E courses? I think Coursera had a MOOCified version of “Startup engineering”, but that was over a decade ago and it didn’t last long anyway. It was…
Thank you!
Clarification question, having read OP yet having missed some fine details: I presume you mean that software could set some CIA-II register to keep the NMI line to the CPU down indefinitely. Since what triggers the…
I've got valuable advice from SO over the years. There's overlap with LLMs, sure, but it's frequent to have questions that have no answers published anywhere on the web; SO brings people who know out of the woodwork,…
Arne has written, as usual, an excellent piece. Not only it argues its intended points, but it can also be followed by everybody-it brings readers up to speed without assuming any significant background knowledge.
A vast majority of the last names in this article are German. Seems like Project Paperclip all over again.
Sadly, same here: following the instrs works for Tiny Basic (which is quite basic!), but CP/M segfaults. Any idea to get past this?
That's a dangerous oversimplification. Say you are a US lawful permanent resident. CBP has the power to deem your LPR status as having been abandoned (e.g., if you've been spending too much of your time outside the US,…
In the U.S. system, no visa (including a green card==permanent residency) constitutes permission to enter the country. A visa only enables the holder to travel to a port of entry and request permission to enter the…
U.S. permanent residency is a visa. It's an immigrant visa, obviously, like several other categories; meaning that it's permissible to state that the applicant has immigrant intent.
This has to be the best HN comment in a long time.
This looks quite neat; it reminds me of TurtleSpaces, a great Logo-based environment. Question (and sorry if the answer's evident, but a cursory glance at the website didn't solve it): are there any examples with source…
Much obliged for your help. Logo has the advantage of being immediately applicable to much younger learners (~7) than BJC (~16). There's a big mass of teaching resources (microworlds, etc) that are immediately usable at…
Hey, thanks for the pointers. Question: are you aware of any materials I can follow to teach kids how to program using Snap!? Snap! has indeed become quite powerful with time, but I struggle to come up with a lesson…
From a confidentiality viewpoint, isn't this equivalent to uploading my docs to ChatPDF? (Genuine question, I'm not well versed in LLMs.) Because I'm uploading the embeddings to OpenAI or a similar service provider-if…
That’s why a perfectly understandable Ithkuil course is right over there, a couple hexagons away
If I wanted to develop games on the C64 itself, I'd use White Lightning Forth--a great compromise between expressive power and running speed. Vision Basic, requiring a 256 KiB RAM expansion, just feels weird. In any…
Shout out to empressplay and her teammate(s) (sister?) for their work on turtleSpaces, an underrated, solid implementation of 3D logo in golang that can run on the browser. I've used it to teach children, and they've…
How do you deal with updates (ideally, at a time of your choice)?
Argentina's economy is a self-similar process: when you look at snapshots taken days apart, nothing's really changed. When you look at snapshots taken a few years apart, nothing's changed, either. On occasion, there's…
I've owned several pairs of aspherical lenses made of glass, ground by competent yet hardly exceptional shops. Only in the U.S. I found people uninterested in selling me glass lenses--exaggerated mimicry, "but they'll…
Thank you! I wasn't aware of OASIS. Reading up now.
