ClearCase and Scrabble geek. Recent Dr. Who convert. Militant agnostic. This is not the dystopian future I was promised.

@Flaming_Spork At Maker Faire, a guy had hacked Asteroids to use an old analog scope as a display, which was extremely cool. I told him that it would be easy to make it work with lasers, since he'd already got the DAC stuff sorted. He said he was working on it, but then Maker Faire stopped… :(

@GroundedBlue @fermatslibrary Packing squares, not much. If one were to devise an algorithm that could do it in less than exponential time (even if the exponent were 1.0000001) would have a zillion applications!

@JohnKopisc5213 @competitionplus Yep, the theoretical top speed at redline is something like 350-355, but running the motor 32% longer is 32% more time to go boom. Um, lessee… 3.5s = .0583 min, times 8500rpm, is just under 500 revs in a run, and we know what's left of the motor even then!

@adafruit I shudder to think of what it must be like to optimize by hand! Even locality-of-reference tuning, one of the easier optimizations, would be a total slog to do by hand with any nontrivial amount of code

@darrenmarble @netflix You’ll be used to it after watching the Enola Holmes movies (which you should)

Me: We're almost done with Gilmore Girls. :( Maybe there'll be a reboot, if @alexisbledel isn't too busy with The Handmaid's Tale.
Wife: How about a crossover?

@KatieHeigl Just read the WaPo piece. You do you! History is being kinder to actresses who were labeled as you were during the early 2000s.

@Kathyszsmarter How can I buy one of these in the USA?

@chipchristian Forth is a misspelling and Lisp is ableist.

Perhaps the most promising opening in a textbook ever.

@quadrivial Really? Worse than "(You're) Having My baby" by Paul Anka?

Not just Internet parlance, the lexicon in general. Most people who use the phrase "all the things" don't know she coined it.

@GovMurphy Thank you for listening to science!

@AoDespair Sir, I doff my hat to you, who are the greatest master of invective since Lee Ermey in Full Metal Jacket. Love me some skilled malediction!
