   I had no idea the Atari 2600 was a 6502 (actually 6507) machine until I saw the A9 (load accumulator) instructions in the machine code snippets on this article, despite having an Atari 2600 as a kid. A9 is burned into my head from sixth for

   No, but you'd think they could charge a battery/capacitor during the good times and use that charge during the outage.

    That's why, back in the day, we bought hard drives. I still fondly remember my first 52MB hard drive, which consisted of a huge plastic enclosure the shape of the Amiga that attached to the expansion port off the side. I had this one:

    A couple of weeks ago I learnt that Bash on Mac does not have associative arrays. We worked around the issue by changing the script to run under Zsh, but beware.

    Far better, if you want to experience colour blindness, and have an Android phone, is to turn on Simulate Colour Space option in the Developer Settings and then open the camera. You can then look around and get an approximation of what a co

    My first experience with Perl was back in 1999. I was fresh out of university working at a dot-com start-up web agency and was asked to take ownership of a project after the developer had left the company. It was pretty straightforward CGI
