This "lightening" and "darkening" you describe actually makes a lot of sense in terms of another way of connecting phycis and color, if we by "lightened" mean "higher color temperature", and for "

I'm not that surprised. I would never remember what an app named "Birdly mobile" did, when finding out I installed it last month. Neither would I find it again, if looking for that "receipt scan app I installed last mo

I find UHK unique among ergonomic keyboards as it combines the few vital things that I find that I need of a keyboard: 1. Compact layout (so I can take it with me between my two offices and home). 2. Split (ergonomic) keyboard. 3. A touchpa

I agree about ebooks, but I'd argue that they have a whole virtue of their own: Nothing beats the speed at what you can skim them, to quickly narrow down on the parts you're interested in, thus being exponentially more efficient t

The Lazarus IDE and GUI component library is simply fantastic, and the most productive native cross-platform GUI toolkit for the big three desktop OSes (OS X/Windows/Linux) that you'll probably find. We needed small helper to

Sorry for the ignorance of a newbie, but I couldn't find any info on whether libmill does anything similar to the M:N multiplexing of light-weight threads upon OS threads?

Thanks! Yea, though in fact my idea is more about wiring the actual (matrix/tensor) operation with dataflow, rather than just the dataflow between such operations . But it might be bit of a different problem area :)

Interesting! I wrote in a draft post back in late 2013 [1], that asked: "What if one could have a fully declarative “matrix language” in which all data transformations ever needed could be declaratively defined in a way that is very ea

I'm wondering about the term "hacking" here. Anything else than mere monitoring would seem extremely stupid. Common wisdom has that you don't ever hack on a production system, much less so a critical, life-sustaining one

If anybody wonders, the no. 1 reason I find datalog so compelling, is the support for "named queries", which basically means that you can store a complex lookup as named "concept", which is then usable in other queries.

Cool article! Datalog is definitely worth more attention! Just a detail: In fairness, I think one can say that there is actually one more "implementation" of datalog for Clojure, though it is built upon the Hadoop ecosystem, Casca
