2020 coronavirus pandemic in New York City

Странные данные по NYC
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data:COVID-19_cases_in_New_York_City.tab
трупов, оказывается, не 300-400 в день, как
объявлялось, а всего 200 в день, то есть около половины
мертвецов в NYC болели короной (или меньше; нормальная
смертность в NYC 400-500 человек в день).

Похоже, оно не растет даже, ну типа - ковид
выкашивает тех, кто и так на пороге смерти,
а остальные могут особо не беспокоиться.

Привет

Fan Art Whenever: New Mutants D&D Edition Part 1

Posted by: iamrman

I had the idea of crossing over the New Mutants with Dungeons and Dragons. The classes I have assigned to various characters don't necessarily correspond to canon D&D classes, so die hard fans will probably hate it.

A New Name and Direction for Raw on $10 a Day (or Less!)





Ch-ch-ch-changes. 

Raw on $10 a Day (or Less!) began at the end of 2009. I’d just become vegan and was interested in raw foods. I was struggling in quite possibly the worst situation I’d ever been in. I was drowning and, you probably didn’t know it, but this blog and its readers became something of a lifeline. 

It all started as a simple question: “How much does it cost to eat raw?” but led to so much more. I’ve learned so much about food, and living, about loving myself and others, about the value of good food, and emotional and physical health. I've experienced heartbreaking loss, and deep happiness and joy, and I’ve grown and bloomed into the person I was always meant to be. I even wrote a real book, Easy Affordable Raw.

Today is my 54th birthday. It's said one's life goes in cycles and the 54th year is one of renewal, change, and rebirth. I feel fantastic and optimistic and am looking forward to many more happy, healthy years of vegan life, love, and adventure.

Because of all that, it makes me incredibly sad to say goodbye to Raw on $10. It’s something that I put a lot of work into. More than anything else, though, it’s something I’ve gotten a great deal from. I’ve deeply appreciated every reader, every encouragement, and every friendship and connection, online and off, that has come about directly and indirectly from Raw on $10.

I’ve never been good at ending relationships, either. I hang on. Drag my feet. Procrastinate. Second guess my decision. But there is only so much room in a life and sometimes one relationship must end for another to begin. It’s incredibly bittersweet. I’m sad for the ending but excited and so happy for what’s to come. 


And so …

Raw on $10 a Day is 

changing, 

growing, 

becoming … 

Planted 365



Changing the name of a blog while also changing the platform from Blogger to Wordpress has been brain explodingly complicated and I’d much rather be creating content. I’ve got some help and the process of changing and updating and linking and all that will be an ongoing process. Surely there will be some snags. Please be patient with the transition. 

All recipes will still be available, although I'll be updating and improving a lot of them.

I'll be migrating the RSS feed, email list, and all that, so you might see unfamiliar notifications.

Raw on $10 will continue to exist for the next week. Next Monday, everything will be redirected to the new name and new platform.

Planted 365 will be official then. If you want to go over now, though, it's up and running with a few new things. Sign up by email and you won't miss any posts.

I sincerely hope you will come along and see what else we can discover together. There will be lots of raw food still, because it’s awesome, delicious, and beautifully photogenic. And a new full day menu every week, starting next Monday. There will also be healthy cooked vegan recipes, soul healing art, mindful movement, and conscious connection and relationships. Because how much things cost seems to be interesting to so many, I'll note that information when I can. 

I’ve learned so much in the past nearly nine years. There’s ... so ... much … I can’t wait to show it all to you. 

I'll leave you with a very short video of where I'm headed with Planted 365. 









With sincerest gratitude ...
Lisa 

xoxo

Marco Antoniotti: New version of HEΛP

After ELS 2020 I got some time to get back and do some hacking on Common Lisp. The first result is a new version of HEΛP that fixes some bugs and is in general much more robust on both Un*x and Windows platforms.

One outstanding issue is the reliance of the library on READ, which does cause some problems when reading pure source code.  On a next iteration I may use Eclector, which is a drop-in replacement for READ with finer control on error handling.

In any case, if you need HEΛP to document your program, just follow the link.

(cheers)

"Three Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Designing Languages"

The transcript of Three Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Designing Languages, a talk given by Peter Alvaro somewhere or other, is up at Info Q.

Peter Alavaro's main research interest is in taming distributed systems. He starts his talk with the provocative thesis, "In the future, all radical new languages will be domain-specific languages." He talks of the evolution of his ideas about dealing with distributed systems:

  1. Little interest by designers of programming-language designers in filling huge difficulty of debugging in context of distributed systems;
  2. PLs often make handling of data somewhat implicit, even with functional programming, which he says is dangerous in distributed programming;
  3. To talk about the flow of data properly, we need to talk about time;
  4. Two things that influenced him as a grad student: Jeff Ullman's claim that encapsulation and declarativity are in tension, and Fagin's theorem (the existential fragment of second-order logic characterises NP);
  5. Idea that distributed systems can be considered as protocols specified a bit like SQL or Datalog queries;
  6. Triviality with query languages of characterising the idea of place in distributive systems: they are just another relation parameter;
  7. Describing evolution of a system in time can be done with two other things: counters and negation, leading to Bertram Ludäscher's language Statelog. But this way of doing things leads to the kind of low-level overexpressive modelling he was trying to avoid;
  8. "What is it about...protocols that they seem to require negation to express?” Turns out that if you drop negation, you characterise the protocols that deliver messages deterministically.

He summarises by saying the only good reason to design a programming language (I assume he means a radically novel language) is to shape your understanding of the problem. No regrets of being the only user of his first language, Datalist, because the point is that it shaped all his later thought in his research.

Google Plus - Google's New Social Network

If you haven’t heard Google is set to launch a new social network, otherwise known as Google Plus or Google+ depending on who you talk to. Like the new Google plus 1 button, Google is trying to get into the social network scene currently dominated by Facebook. Google’s new social network will be available on all its products thanks to a completely re-designed navigation bar........... Google’s new social network will share some very similar features to its biggest rival with a similar notification system and its stream which will have a look and feel very close to Facebook’s news feed. This will allow its users to share photos, videos, and links to their contacts pretty much the same way, and with the recent plus 1 button you’ll be able to rate content much like you would “like” content on Facebook.
