That was a decade after anything I would think of as early browsers, much less very early browsers.

Discussion on the talk page for the Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Jacobian_conjecture#Appar...

I don't remember that, though I only started with early Netscape. Do you have more detail?

This would have been a great opportunity to suggest one.

There was no shortage of names like that. A lot of them rebranded later. Remember twttr?

Do you think it's coincidence the chip for Skynet looks so much like the Connection Machine?

He also does PR for AI companies and only really acknowledges this in interviews. As far as I know he never discloses it in his rants.

It's been so long I have no idea what the karma thresholds are so this is possible.

For future reference: you can edit posts for up to 2 hours.

That's where farts come from.

It's an almost 30 year old nearly 500 ton structure subjected to radiation, bombardment by starstuff and debris, the stresses of docking and undocking, of boosts, and of constant heating and cooling as it passes in and out of the sun. Getting a clear picture of the comings and going of gasses is probably not easy.

I remember reading about the ISS in the May 1998 issue of Popular Science, a full issue about the station. They were getting ready to launch the first module. Every time bad news happens, I think about this part (from a PDF I hang on to):

> "SOMEDAY, THE international Space Station will descend, but if you're frightened at the prospect of a million-pound hunk of metal falling out of the sky, take heart. NASA does have a plan to decommission the space station eventually without creating havoc. The European Space Agency is planning to build three expendable space vehicles by 2003: two of them will ferry propellant, the other will force the station to land in a designated area. Called an automated transfer vehicle (ATV), the craft will be unmanned, similar to the Russian Progress resupply vehicle but larger, with enough thrust to nudge the entire station down in a single piece-a cheaper and safer alternative to hauling pieces of the station down in multiple trips. Roughly 90 percent of the station will be cinder by the time it reaches Earth's atmosphere; a Pacific splashdown is the plan.-Gunfan Sinha"

Bitwig was started by former Ableton people.

I think we live in very different media environments. I have no idea what Kill Tony is, have always thought SNL and most late night was dull, and have a steady stream of good stand-up comedians who aren't any sort of ist or phobic in my timelines.

And I have no idea when

> "Unapologetically promiscuous leading men, women on screen purely as sex props and not in some two bit low production value shoot em up. I mean high art like countless examples in the recent past."

would have been the norm. Even the worst of the Hays Code era had plenty of strong leading women. Before that, tons of lecherous women, queer women, etc.

You could already use Node through M4L. I'm not clear on what this adds that wasn't already possible.

I can only match your level of specificity. What do you mean? You gestured vaguely in the direction of something. What do you consider "made for men" that isn't represented now?

That's such a bleak view of men. I think they're more open to variety in their media than you give them credit for.

In 1984, high ranking members of the party could turn off their telescreens for 30 minutes without suspicion.

State, don't insinuate.

Many classic scenes like the P90 demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjlCVW_ouL8

And so on

There's plenty of room for that, all the planned datacenters that will never be finished or started, and enough solar panels to power it in a small fraction of the space used for ethanol corn.

Most corn is not for eating.

C++ is still among the top languages.

I want to see KDE still improving and keeping up in another 30 years. To me it's no different from a telethon for PBS or a poster for Friends of the Library. Intrusive? From a certain point of view, but it pays the bills.

edit: I appreciate the quality of discussion below, so far.

You sure about that?

That's a purpose of a photo, not the purpose. As an art form, there's a lot more to it, and much of it happens after the shutter closes.
