Itโs amazing to me that folks have such a hard time with the very basic concept of โfollow the money.โ
This isnโt rocket science, people. Where/who you get your money from matters. The people who you surround yourself with matters. The success criteria you adopt matters.

Depending on the hardware, there might be some "messy" parts (drivers).
And from a security perspective, the hardware question becomes relevant (since we have e.g. PC mainboards that run a separate operating system in the background).
Especially for driver stuff, there would be a need for at least assembler as a second language.
@wakame Not if it's an actual Lisp-in-hardware Lisp machine.
I mean, typically Lisp machines do have a bootstrap layer written in another language, but the simplicity of the core of Lisp means that they don't have to. You can implement implement each of the between five and ten primitive functions (depending on implementation) in hardware as single instructions.
I agree.
(I was implicitly taking the perspective "how could we realize this on currently available hardware".)
@wakame Yes, indeed. But future hardware probably doesn't look an awful lot like modern hardware. I think we're going to need way more parallelism -- and pure functional languages (of course classic Lisp is not pure functional, but pure functional subsets are easy) are excellent for exploiting massively parallel architectures.

I read [the chapter on perma computing](perma.computer:70/0/letter.txt) and I can't sign it
Ah, yeah, at the time I wriggled a bit against the blanket ban on basically the research of LLMs (or w/e I didn't read it recently), recently echoed by Gentoo's blanket ban on "any NLP associated code generation", though I feel that that ended up aging well, didn't it. I will read it again. I'm very predisposed to agree with my community there already though.

One of kid's classmates had a surprising anti-gay opinion, so he's been asking around a bit where people stand. Thankfully, that kid seems to be the outlier.
Made me remember that time half a life ago when I accidentally "came out" to a friend ... I admitted my interest for a woman with an ambiguous nickname and hilarity ensued.
My friend's response was so overwhelmingly excited and supportive that I promised that if I ever discovered I was gay, I was sure to go to him first with the news. ๐ฅฐ

@clacke: inhibited exhausted pixie dream boy ๐ธ๐ช๐ญ๐ฐ๐๐ This reminds me a recent incident where another kid in my child's 4th grade class (9-10 years old) started asking his classmates which side of the Israel-Palestine conflict they were on. ๐ฌ
The problem wasn't so much that they asked but that they offered only two sides, which is highly reductive view of this conflict.

LXQt is often overlooked but it is snappy and modern. And PCManFM is just a great file browser!
I have been building browsers for 30 years now. First Opera and now Vivaldi. My estimate is that more than 1 billion have used one of my browsers or both. Have you?
Feel free to share your story!

I am co-founder and CEO of Vivaldi. Sadly I am not contributing much on the coding side anymore. I did more of that at Opera, where I was also co-founder and CEO until 2010.

Kid, suddenly, while we're on a walk:
"I want to learn Lua now"
Any good and fun interactive Lua tutorials out there? He enjoyed Scratch because in a visual language everything is discoverable, so he could teach himself while staying within the tool and only going to YouTube when something was extra tricky.
He found some promising tutorials within Roblox itself, but they turned out to have internal consistency issues, like asking you to create a local variable without first having explained the concept and syntax.

Look, USians, I don't want to step into your internal politics, but you see, 45 years ago, we spaniards had the occurrence to write in our constitution that the head of state (the king) has immunity from prosecution for anything they do while they are in the job, and now we have an ex-king with a Wikipedia page that includes a "alleged corruption" section 55 paragraphs long.
And it's only "alleged" because he can't be taken to court even with the piles of evidence that exist.
Just saying.

Created a fan edit of #threebodyproblem Tencent adaptation which was called "Three Body" and 22 hours long.
Fan edit is 6 hours long, and called "THREE-BODY DISEMBIGGENED".
It is presented in 3 parts, each of about 2 hours in length.
Feedback is welcome!
THANK YOU @Gordon Mcdowell for creating disembiggened.com/
I enjoyed the Netflix adaptation of The Three-Body Problem and I was looking forward to seeing Tencent's version of it, which book fans have said is closer to the books.
The production values, cinematography and acting are very good. The pacing is slow, but I don't mind that very much. I can take my time, and I appreciate a story that spends time on details and peripheral threads.
I just find it very emotionally exhausting to watch. After two hours of ominous music, cold sweat, frantic development of photographs, visualizations (or hallucinations?) of pool balls flying through space, etc, I'm not sure I can push myself through another 20 hours of this.
I have not watched your six-hour edit yet, but I am already grateful it exists.

De-orbiting satellites by burning them up did work when the volume of satellites was small, but already 10% of aerosol particules in the stratosphere contain aluminum/other metals.
