Andrew Camarata is another jewel in the cesspool. Love watching his heavy construction videos. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUujfNBK9uv3cIW-P5PX7vA

If they announce the rumored M2 Macs next week, you might be within the 15 days to return the M1's and order (with plenty of waiting) the M2's.

Don't know why the author thinks that haecceity is somehow going to tear down metaphysics. Plato and Aristotle very much emphasized form & matter (hylomorphic theory), where the form provides the nature and the matter provides the

I bought a barely-used (2K miles, 35% off (year on lot)) high-roof Sprinter on a whim back in 2017 (was a PGA tour shuttle, apparently) and took out all 3 benches, for a truly wonderfully capacious, full-enclosed hauling and moving machine.

Interesting--the placement of code-to-processor so that things will be done roughly at the same time sounds a lot like the VLIW compiler problem of scheduling execution units so things are available at exactly the right time, without hardwa

Chuck was one of the kindest and thoughtful people I ever met in SV in the 70's and 80's. I had taken his CMU PhD thesis on compiler optimization and applied it (in a small way) to Harvard's ECL language for my undergrad thes

Fun trivia: in the early days of the ARPAnet, mail was delivered (at least on PDP-10's) by FTP-appending a message in to the receipients mailbox file. (Which was protected as append-only to world (owner, group, world).) Didn't las

And you believe that wikipedia entry for the Proud Boys is an unbiased presentation? Laughable. The head of the Proud Boys is not white, so it's hard to imagine them being too serious about "white supremacy."

Wow, nifty work! Reading that source brings a rush of emotional memory of that incredible instruction set. So simple, so rational, so orthogonal. Ah bliss(-11 ;-).

Sooo tired of the non-stop Trump swipes from Wired & its ilk. Let it go, guys. He's gone, isn't he? And of Trump's supposed attack on democracy, that's how you'd characterize it if you were interested in the cor

Written in a highly partisan style. Serious charges, followed by exculpatory explanations that sound lame in comparison.

The "record number" seems to be (as the article says) mostly related to the rioting--reporters getting arrested as part of the rioting response. Doesn't seem like an institutional crisis at all.

Oh, "traditionalist" "radical" Catholics (I'm one of those) are doing harm in their own groups, and even some outside their own groups? How, pray tell? By advocating for the traditional Tridentine Mass? By praying t
