(This blog post was adapted from the transcription obtained from my YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6lxgYeVZqs) When Linus Torvalds developed the first Linux kernel, he had studied the Minix sources, he had studied computer architecture, he had the base knowledge needed, and he was obviously a very...
Building plugins and extensions for your application is a slippery slope that can easily lead to feature creep (looking at you, Notion). So instead of trying to stuff everything into one app, lately Iâve found myself preferring specific apps for specific needs. For example, Iâm trying to get into the habit of...
A short opinion on what AI is actually replacing. Fears are that AI is replacing people, because so many companies are firing people and implementing artificial intelligence alternatives. But the person is still there, the "person" role was never supplanted. Instead, it's the business role of that person that is. I...
By Jesse WinterSlime Mind StudioBECMI/ShadowdarkLevels 1-3 The mountain bled. Now powers from beyond slake their thirst. Bordering the long-abandoned Brackenhoorg mines, a lone gatehouse suffers both from the churn of a mysterious ooze and the encroaching domain of a fey lord. Test your mettle against a dungeon...
This series has been highlighting real buildings (and other structures) that end up as backgrounds in comics. Sometimes the artists draw their own instead of copying. With buildings, thatâs usually fine; todayâs excerpts â from a 1990s Catwoman comic â are not so great. We first see the bridge where the action takes...
From the end of World War One through to the 1950s Eastern Europe's peasant societies were engaged in a new continuous "Peasant War". It is a struggle that is rarely acknowledged, except perhaps by those looking to understand the dynamics between workers and peasants during the Russian Revolution. Those who do study...
Iâve been reading James Hillmanâs Soul Code, published in 1996. Heâs mentioned âfamily valuesâ several times and itâs taken me back to when that phrase was a battleground. Itâs inspired a little fantasy. Itâs 1996. Jeremy is driving his Ford Bronco up the big hill on the highway near his house. It struggles, slowing...
Despite my love of Iain M. Banks' science fiction novels I have never read Feersum Endjinn. When I first attempted it soon after it's first publication in the mid 1990s, I was put of by the "difficult" chapters. These are written phonetically, and I found them impenetrable. Today, after nearly three decades of text...
It doesnât happen very often but woke up at 4am and could not get back to sleep. Not anxious or worried about anything in particular. Not excited or filled with excitement about anything in particular either. Just awake. Summer is in full swing. As is the case with us, weâve left our planning for a break to the last...
This blog has profiled 1920's and 1930's comics Harry Sweet, Lloyd Hamilton, Joe Rock's Three Fat Guys series and such Columbia Shorts Department stalwarts as The Three Stooges, Andy Clyde, Leon Errol and Harry Langdon in search of laughs. Now we travel across the pond and leap several decades later to 1980's and...
