I created a new "Cooking" list on BlueSky and updated all my existing lists with simple icons. Click the "Lists" tab in my BlueSky profile to view them... but I think you have to be logged in with your own account.

This image is a screenshot showcasing a set of curated lists on the social media platform BlueSky, created by the user @wesfryer.com. At the top, the image includes a bold, yellow-highlighted link reading “bsky.app/profile/wesfryer.com” and a large title in blue text that says “My Lists On BlueSky.” The lists cover a variety of interests and communities. The Cooking list is for food lovers, cooks, and foodies. Thrive Community highlights a collaborative educator network initiated by Lucy Gray, …

I’ve never seen this memory issue on #MacOS before. I had left Safari with Mela’s share sheet/importer app snippet open overnight and came back to a nearly unresponsive computer. I assume one of these has a memory leak. I was able to reboot via the shell using SSH from another device.

Screenshot of an error message from MacOS titled “Force Quit Applications.” It reads, “⚠️ Your system has run out of application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using.” The window lists several applications and their memory usage. “Resume” and “Force Quit” buttons are displayed below the list.

"It's this brutal fragility of vector stacks — which are used by most modern computer languages — which makes software people so wary of fully exploiting the beauty and power of recursion, and I really think that's a shame"
#Lisp

The properties of the system, and their values
Lisp is the list processing language; that is what its name means. It processes data structures built of lists — which may be lists of lists, or lists of numbers, or lists of any other sort of data item provided for by the designers of the system.But how is a list, in a computer, actually implemented?

eggs were 27¢ a dozen in 1905 when the presque isle lighthouse keeper's house was built

The photo shows a small tabletop sign or display card with the heading: “About 1905 — The Year This House Was Built!” The Cost of Living The sign lists various everyday goods and household items along with their prices from around the year 1905. It is printed on a tan, parchment-like background with a black frame around it, and uses a mix of serif and script fonts to give it an old-fashioned look. The list is organized into two columns, with checkboxes next to each item, and includes prices f…

I'm sorry but aren't pros/cons lists supposed to cover both faces of the coin? The list here is very one-sided for immich:

Fast and Efficient Merge of Sorted Input Lists in Hardware Using List Offset Merge Sorters
A new set of hardware merge sort devices are introduced here, which merge multiple sorted input lists into a single sorted output list in a fast and efficient manner. In each merge sorter, the values from the sorted input lists are arranged in an input 2-D setup array, but with the order of each sorted input list offset from the order of each of the other sorted input lists. In these new devices, called List Offset Merge Sorters (LOMS), a minimal set of column sort stages alternating with row s…

Making to do lists is great. It always reminds me of tasks that are more than finishing the list.

I made a helper for Proximity (a word association game like #Semantle). It lets you poke around the database to see what's close to what:
github.com/adamhotep/userscrip

Screen shot of a game of Proximity in progress. There's a text box at the top where you enter your guesses, a "Guess" button beside it, then the list of guesses so far, with a colored bar indicating how close it is; the top guess is the most recent (264 away) while later guesses are ranked from closest (44 away) to farthest (tepid). The content is blurred so today's game isn't spoiled for you. Below the guesses is a panel of buttons including "Hint" and "Nearby...", which is circled by hand…
Another screenshot, this time of the "Nearby words" view, normally shown after completing a puzzle. A text box with its "Nearby" button is again circled by hand. Below that, it says "Nearby words" and it lists the nearest words to "proximity", including their similarity metric (proximity 1 is "nearness" with a similarity of 67.19, proximity 10 is "located" with a similarity of 45.07).

Filter Equivariant Functions: A symmetric account of length-general extrapolation on lists
What should a function that extrapolates beyond known input/output examples look like? This is a tricky question to answer in general, as any function matching the outputs on those examples can in principle be a correct extrapolant. We argue that a "good" extrapolant should follow certain kinds of rules, and here we study a particularly appealing criterion for rule-following in list functions: that the function should behave predictably even when certain elements are removed. In functional prog…

In This Thread: denizens of debian-user mailing list who refuse to accept that there are people who do creative work without wanting to use email.
Apparently it is only "kids" who "don't understand what is important", who "have a mobile phone glued to their hand" and "don't care about their computer as long as it plays their games."
