If you want to get technical, ASCII is a single-alphabet substitution cipher. Remember, lawyers have tried asserting that copying to RAM is copyright infringement. http://newmedialaw.proskauer.com/2008/08/20/r

Composability, it's what makes Unix Unix. Doug McIlroy and his pipes, that's what makes it powerful in th ehands of a skilled operator. Your system grows with you Possibly a nightmare for someone else to reason about, so I accept

I usually use OpenOffice / LibreOffice Equation Editor which is based on eqn. Ironically the on disk format it uses is MathML.

I still use Acme, a plan9 text editor that was based on Oberon and it is the best software ever. Just the notion that "all text is a potential action" blows all other usability notions out of the water. Want a drop down menu ? : m

I guess it's not so bad if you can leave when you feel like it. Singapore is a cool place if you're on the right side. Dubai is another even more extreme example.

Boot from read only media, or mark your partitions read only. If you boot from CD you can copy-on-read to RAM to keep things snappy. Or PXE booting a Unix / Plan9 workstation. I set my networks up so that I never rely on a terminal mac

“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters,” Trump said. So in a way, yes, he has made murder respectable. The previous two POTUS' made murder respectable by using remote controlled flying

The irony too, that Ritchie, Thompson, Pike et al at the Unix labs were then enamoured by Modula-2 & Oberon and used the ideas to build plan9 but in a new version of C.

That's handy to know. I was investigating whether I could make my hydroponics system recycle the water but the waste ratio made it unattractive - it was only for science.

Yeah, I was amazed both when I saw how much water got wasted in home RO and how much wasn't wasted in industrial RO!

This is a tragic tale. I think I would have enjoyed a Cardiac to learn machine code. I first learned code from copying listings on Teletext, they called it Telesoftware [1] into a book. I had no access to any computers. https://

Come on, it only takes a couple of hours to learn the basics of calculus. Finding the volume of things from their surface areas and you can integrate. These are not difficult concepts.

On the internet no-one knows you're a dog. In the UK I have noticed that black people are well represented in tech circles. Almost all the black people I know are in IT. There's probably some selection bias because that's how
