The jank programming language

The jank programming language jank is a general-purpose programming language which embraces the interactive, value-oriented nature of Clojure as well as the desire for native compilation and minimal runtimes. jank is strongly compatible with Clojure and considers itself a dialect of Clojure. Please note that jank is under heavy development; assume all features are planned or incomplete. Where jank differs from Clojure JVM is that its host is C++ on top of an LLVM-based JIT. This allows jank to

Paleontologists Find Skeleton That Weirdly Looks Exactly Like Barney the Purple Dinosaur

We're a happy fa-m-ily! Funky Dino Deep in the heart of Texas, a goofy-looking dinosaur skeleton has been unearthed — and it's got a funny head that makes it look like a dead wringer for Barney, the purple lizard of 90s television fame with the annoyingly cheery voice. As the Houston Chronicle reports, the dinosaur in question — called Eryops megacephalus — has a wide, grinning smile on a large flat skull that sits on four squat legs.

The Missing 11th of the Month (2015)

The Missing 11th of the Month Source xkcd. Image licensed under CC-BY-NC. On November 28th, 2012, Randall Munroe published an xkcd comic that was a calendar in which the size of each date was proportional to how often each date is referenced by its ordinal name (e.g. "October 14th") in the Google Ngrams database since 2000. Most of the large days are pretty much what you would expect: July 4th, December 25th, the 1st of every month, the last day of most months, and of course a September 11th t

The Alters brings Kojima-esque weirdness to a tale of sci-fi survival

Rolling across rugged alien wilds, your circular base in The Alters offers a twinkling haven from the whipping winds and nauseating radiation. At least, that’s how it feels for the first few hours. Gradually, as the in-game days stack up, my view of the vessel changes: protagonist Jan Dolski seems to be stuck on what is essentially a very expensive, very large hamster wheel, eking out an existence within modular rooms that look a lot like shipping containers. For the corporation funding this ven

StreamElements this week put out its latest State of the Stream report for January 2025.

However, not only do we have a new top streamer for the month, but the most-viewed games list has been shaken up by the arrival of Netease’s Marvel Rivals. According to StreamElement’s report, which was done in partnership wi

[TUHS] 1972 UNIX V2 "Beta" Resurrected Hi everyone, First-time poster here. Near the end of last year, I did some forensic analysis on the DMR tapes (https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applications/Dennis_Tapes) and had some fun playing around with them.

Here's an update on my work with the s1/s2 tapes - I've
