Berkeley, Saturday, May 30, 2020 3:14 AM Reporting procrastination, which is not good, but I learned something interesting. Here for the records an interesting radio episode, by 99% invisible, about Douglas Engelbart, and his vision and intellectual thought of the usage of communication systems and computers. The episode name is “Of Mice And Men”. It […]

Math Museum
Berkeley, Saturday, May 29, 2020 00:11 AM There is this great thing of Professor Tim Berners-Lee’s World Wide Web (www) invention that is the sharing of good information. I found this excellent page about a museum of math history, or rather about great contributors to math through history. Here is the link for my further […]
Tracking
Berkeley, Friday, May 29, 2020 9:00 PM The full display of tracing processes is not just calculating them. I am grateful with all the pioneers who have developed metrics.
Which one?
Berkeley, Friday, May 29, 2020 5:22 PM It [C]ms that C++ got an A+ as the next generation of his pioneers PASCAL, Fortran, and others, which are not BASIC languages (1). All seem somehow complicated. Now, we have [Python]s, ANACONDAs, Pandas, and who knows what else. It seems that JULIA is missing her [R]omeo. I […]

Biden-Warren [I hope!]
Berkeley, Saturday, May 23, 2020 1:18 PM There are many daily news coming in every day. Reading that Joe Biden has been meeting once per week with Elizabeth Warren gave me plenty of hope. I do not know if that would end up being the running binomial for the highest public office in the United […]
Easy to please, but hard to satisfy
Period.! Period? Actually, it is not a period or a full stop, but that title, to those who apply, means three dots or an ellipsis. Further, the eternal Father wants us always to continue growing (See Mt 5, 48). References: The title is a quote by Kreeft (2000 p. 19), who quoted C.S. Lewis, who […]
