un_migrations: UN migration stock (2015)
A network of migration between countries, collected by the United Nations. A directed edge gives the flow of migration, and an edge property gives the number of migrants, for each given year and sex. Estimates are presented for 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2015 and are available for all countries and areas of the world. The estimates are based on official statistics on the foreign-born or the foreign population.

Sammelt hier jemand antiquarische Gartenbücher? Ich schenke die Bücher her, bevorzugt alle drei an eine Adresse, würde aber gerne die Versandkosten haben (wahrscheinlich irgendwas um die 7-9 Euro für's Gesamtpaket). »Pflanzen sprechen dich an« ist von 1960, »Das praktische Gartenbuch« ist von 1958, »Pflanzenschutz im Biogarten« ist von 1990. Alle sind in gutem Zustand und IIRC ohne Markierungen.

#NowPlaying Originally released in 1968, FMP reissued “Machine Gun” by Peter Brötzmann in 1990. The opening salvo on this album, the sound of three saxophonists playing sharp blasts in unison, resembling the rat-a-tat-tat of an automatic weapon, completely reorganized my brain. If you have never heard this masterpiece, it’s available in a newly expanded digital edition.

Med anledning av DN:s reportage om Lundsberg idag letar jag fram två av mina gamla blogginlägg. Jag själv gick på internatskolan i Sigtuna, där jag hamnade i samband med att mina föräldrar skildes när vi bodde i Tanzania. Jag gick de två sista åren i gymnasiet där (1990-1992) och var då aldrig en ”batt” (Sigtunas motsvarighet till Lundsbergs ”tarm”), men det jag fick se och uppleva blev mina första upplevelser av ett återvändande till Sverige, och påverkar mig till denna dag.

"What has not changed in 50 years is the fact we are still using centralized architectures, prone to government intrusion and privacy leaks. Maybe it is time to think about a “Post Cloud” era where information is distributed instead of centralized. Of course this raises questions of trust, cryptography, security and collaboration, but the technology to build such systems already exists. It is more of a question of policy and education than of technology."

"After the 8-bit MOS Technology 6502 that powered the Apple II around 1980, Macs used the 16-bit (later 32-bit) Motorola 68000 around 1990, then 32-bit (later 64-bit) IBM PowerPC around 2000, later settling with Intel’s 32-bit x86 and 64-bit x86-64 around 2010.
We are in 2020, not even around 2020 anymore, and we should be able to spend an insane amount of money to buy Macs powered by ARM architecture CPUs – “finally!”, as some of those headlines online would scream."

un_migrations: UN migration stock (2015)
A network of migration between countries, collected by the United Nations. A directed edge gives the flow of migration, and an edge property gives the number of migrants, for each given year and sex. Estimates are presented for 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2015 and are available for all countries and areas of the world. The estimates are based on official statistics on the foreign-born or the foreign population.
