This is what I've been assuming - 200 to 250x. But 250xdeaths gives you the infected number from two weeks ago. To get current infected you then have to multiply it by communication^(days to death), something like 1.1^14, with the fir

For those who are intrigued by all of this, I will mention that the built-in tutorial (Help->Read the Emacs Manual) and the intro lisp tutorial (Help->More Manuals->Introduction to Emacs Lisp) are both interactive and very readable

We're not jacking in and penetrating black ice with tech stolen from a corporation-state, but I still think the Internet is mysterious and, if not "sexy", at least endlessly fascinating. Both because you usually never know wh

I second Fire in the Valley - there are a lot of good Mac-era anecdotes. Hertzfeld put a lot of them at https://www.folklore.org/ as well.

The elements which stuck in my head were: 1. Steal the drum and bass from an old soul record, don't try to engineer your own. 2. For lyrics, use things you hear shop clerks saying. 3. (from the opening of the book) "Start off skin

As a longtime comics fan who was overjoyed when CGI finally got good enough to show these stories (around Sam Raimi's Spiderman), I agree. But I think the article may be defining the "craze" as the entire time period from Act
