"Bertrand Meyer is, hands down, the best writer in the computer field, because of a simple reason: his books have both great content and great prose. Not all authors of computer books (and certainly not the one you are reading now) can make the same claim."

#Mexico forbids killing bulls and subjecting them to the most extreme forms of torture.
#Spain is, sadly, still far behind... but I suspect that Mexico's precedent will help, not just as a good example, but also because it will severely decrease the income of many of those bullfighters (toreros).
Toreros usually travel through many countries to participate in these bloody spectacles and make a living out of it. Removing Mexico from their list will be a big thing, so it is likely that many of them will have to do something else with their lives.

@… is wondering how much trouble a skipped heading level is for screen reader users. Three users have replied but it'd be great to see more feedback. Anyone else willing to reply to Manuel's post? Here is the link:

H. Kneser: Reduktion Abelscher Integrale. Ist ein Körper algebraischer Funktionen (vom Geschlecht P) vom Grade n und 2 w-fach verzweigt in bezug auf einen Unterkörper vom Geschlecht p, so zeigt die Hurwitzsche Formel P - 1 = n(p - 1) + w, daß, falls p > 1 ist, nur endlich viele Möglichkeiten vorliegen. Dies erlaubt ...
... in den niedrigsten Fällen die betreffenden Körper algebraisch und explizit aufzustellen. Der als Beispiel gewählte Fall Р=4, p = 2, n=3, w = 0 führt bei zyklischer Monodromiegruppe auf die von Clebsch (Gott. Abh. 14) behandelte Darstellung einer Binärform 6. Ordnung als Summe einer zweiten und einer dritten Potenz.

"Many professions can be recognized through dress codes. Doctors and nurses wear aprons. Police officers wear uniforms. Tennis players in Wimbledon must dress in white. Astronauts wear space suits. Dominatrices wear black latex catsuits. The Swiss Guard in the Vatican wears the same outfit since the 16th century. Soccer players have matching kits. Wolverine fights evil in yellow spandex. Software developers wear the t-shirts they got for free at the last conference."

Defunct railroad building.
Taken 4 August 2024.
#WindowFriday #FensterFreitag #Abandoned #Ohio

A window in the wall of a dilapidated one-story building, seen from the inside. The window is a two by four grid of panes, but all the glass appears to be missing. A small line of glass shards can still be seen clinging to the bottom of the window. Outside is a lot of green trees and brush, with a dull gray sky behind them.  There's a wood frame around the window, although for some reason the top of the frame is lower than the top of the window, so it covers part of the window. The wood is bump…
