I think unlike Google, there are still many pure engineers that need to contribute to open source to be motivated and are still have some power.

I feel, but I am not sure, that for Google, thing have switched more and faster to the side of Big soulless corps.

Generally speaking my experience is that even in these big soulless corps there are positive and passionate people. But quite often they do not have enough decision power to have a positive impact.

From (https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/124364-from)

Season 3 should be done by end of September.

Other suggestions in this thread are pretty good.

And one of my preferred show; Utopia (the UK version) warning it is unfinished, only two seasons but this is just a great show. Take care of not watching the cropped version. Also it is so cool this TV show aired before COVID19.

unlimited is a scam, people tend to take fewer days when you tell them it is unlimited comparatively as when they have a fixed number of days. I know, I did the same. Now I take care of consuming my allowed PTO entirely and I take a lot more days off than before.

1984 world is about a totalitarian socialist country inspired by nazi practice of propaganda. So I would not say just fascism. But fascism is clearly part of the book, the novel also show that this could occurs also in a socialist state.

Say you only listen to Wing as the greatest magnificent singer of all time. You are particularly in love with her interpretation of Beat It where she clearly outperforms the miserable attempt of Michael Jackson.

I guess with such an argument the discussion about your musical taste will not take long to switch to another subject.

And also, I really, love Wing because she sing without any other goal than to make other people feel good. No attempt to be a genius or taking herself too seriously.

matrix with element as client.

If you really care about privacy you can hist a matrix server without much resources needed.

S-expressions are a hack because the Lisp devs didn’t know how to make an actual compiler, and instead had the users write the syntax tree for them. (For legal reasons I am being facetious).

Just for anyone thinking you are serious; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-expression I love how S-expression existed.

McCarthy had planned to develop an automatic Lisp compiler (LISP 2) using M-expressions as the language syntax and S-expressions to describe the compiler's internal processes. Stephen B. Russell read the paper and suggested to him that S-expressions were a more convenient syntax. Although McCarthy disapproved of the idea, Russell and colleague Daniel J. Edwards hand-coded an interpreter program that could execute S-expressions.[2] This program was adopted by McCarthy's research group, establishing S-expressions as the dominant form of Lisp.

This article is awesome.

This put a light on Twin Peaks world and more generally David Lynch work. I think most of these delusions are present in his movies.

Technically, sleep sort is O(n), so faster than the theoretical optimal sorting algorithm O(n.log n) ... not so bad ;)

The morons… Why use a computer if you don’t have full power?
