I've made a few diagrams from code over the years using graphviz, draw.io, debugmode wink, plantuml to show a logical or physical software architecture. Yet I have only been able to animate data flowing through any of these systems by

Not cassettes but a dedicated CD player is what I use for this stuff. I have certain custom mixtape style mood music CDs depending on how the scene in my novel is supposed to feel tonally, for example. Yes I could make those into YouTube pl

I appreciate the correction, you are correct indeed. That's what I get for reading what feels like 80 aircraft articles in a 2-hour wiki walk, I'm bound to get some details mixed up!

Thanks for sharing this story, looks like today it's my turn to forget HN is the place where if you reference something famous or notable, someone in that sphere of influence often has a chance to weigh in! Me thinking it's cool y

Exactly! SOPHIA is not just the bird herself. How many jobs of historical interest are going away here? (No, I don't think we should keep all jobs forever) How many seasons of a reality show could be made about the person who maintains

I would argue we are just as social as before, but our social needs are able to be satisfied in the short-term by entertainment more than ever before, which dulls us from pursuing slow-burning-but-high-long-term-reward rewards like a stable

Thanks for posting this. Societal collapse is probably something most people desire to avoid, and if the large numbers of disaffected men are the 'canary in the coal mine' and symptomatic of a weakened society, then we as a societ
