Next up - the War on Lambdas

I don't know array based languages well but I want to read the next one.

Wow. Would this allow a macos-based wayland-client to create an EGL surface?

Every time I hear hierarchical storage, I can't help but think "It's all coming back to MUMPS, isn't it?"

FFI is harder if the target lib doesn't have a C interface.

I feel I'm forced to reach for FFI if I want to do anything graphical e.g Wayland or OpenGL. Otherwise it's optional

https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp PAIP is available online from the author, too.

So what does a modern ATC look like?

can winehq save the day in the interim or in the transition?

can't help but wonder if I'd like this syntax for system timers or cron...

It looks like there is an extern C interface... I wonder if it is everything necessary for someone to use it via FFI.

It did not like supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Wow authored by person who created Solar Realms Elite... A blast from my past crossing into my present.

(A bit reductionist of his many accomplishments in between, I know, it's just a thing that's hit me in the moment)

The first of this macOS WMs that implement something that understands the wayland protocol -- bridges it to macOS compositor or whatever -- will really have my money.

I lost all illusion this was the case after hushmail https://www.wired.com/2007/11/encrypted-e-mai/

Japan has different standards and driving environment around kei cars (I'm going to use K-car going forward).

- Their top speed limit even on highways is 100kmh / 60mph

- K-cars have yellow license plates and yellow license plates are not allowed on highways

I have a memory of seeing one of the infamous white K-trucks on an interstate in Nashville and was gobsmacked. These cars are not rated for highway / interstates in Japan, let alone the U.S.

I'm not sure if the U.S. has a similar visible markings for farm vehicles to allow K-cars city road travel and deny interstate travel. If not, I agree they should be banned until some sort of classification is made and driver culture / knowledge is propagated.

What happens when small-firm doctors, therapists, dentists, etc. are suddenly having your (their patients') medical information backed-up to OneDrive? Microsoft only provide HIPAA compliance if a certain paid tier is purchased. If they automatically turn OneDrive on how will this not be a privacy nightmare?

I'm not finding this in the tech specs so far... Does it support RVV? If so is its version post-1.0 or pre-1.0?

Maybe they should get the Twitter treatment anytime they are mentioned: "Google formerly DoubleClick"

If you use 3D Plane-based Geometric Algebra (https://bivector.net) planes are vector elements and bivectors could be the line intersection of two planes. I'm grossly simplifying here, see link for more info on this interpretation. There are more algebras that have other interpretations of bivectors.

It's been 20 years but I still miss the all-wheel steering of my grocery in Japan (jasco). Every cart now feels broken without it, even Costco's.

I haven't had time to deep read all the way through yet, but this feels so similar to the half-edge structure used in many 3d mesh editing programs but in 2d...

I'm really craving dango now. Well done.

Wow. I didn't think this was production ready yet...

Unless in Japan where it means "no good" hence :NG emoji:

I was hoping to find isometric grid for some technical drafting nostalgia but they only have 45 degree

No matter how securely you connect or rotate passwords, the inside-job or supoena risks were too d*** high

Is the plain text diff-able? Easy to resolve merge conflicts? I consider xml(collada?) not to be diff friendly.

Bernard Health | Software QA Analyst | ONSITE | Nashville, TN | Full-time | https://jobs.bernieportal.com/afa31732

Company Overview:

HR is hard. Nobody starts a company because they passionately want to run payroll and handle benefit administration for their employees.

We provide software to make the “running a business” side of things easier, and in the process we get to help thousands of people daily.

To make sure that we continue to help these people the best that we can, we’re looking for a QA Analyst to join the team and make sure we’re doing it right.

Job Overview:

As a a QA Analyst, you’re in a unique position. Your role is the only manual-automation hybrid in the company, and you interface between the product/development teams and the support teams.

I wonder if they've found fude pens / sign pens... But I enjoy all types for the finer things in life.

Finding jetpens.com has been a blessing and curse

There is a bonus chapter on his website: http://alvyray.com/DigitalLight/default.htm

I am still reading this but love it so far. I love seeing first-hand historical accounts for computing

I don't live in the area but I like the idea that the codes are updated to match the population. I hope there are some provisions for "access to sunlight" as the buildings grow -- something like Japan's Nisshoken policies... or I'd like to hear how that isn't a good idea for city planning.
