Lazy Reading for 2020/08/09

I started this last Sunday.

  • IPv4, IPv6, and a sudden change in attitude.
  • We’re a long way from the halcyon days of ASCII-only text.
  • The 48 Laws of PowerPoint.
  • Putting some extra ‘obvious’ information into our temperature alerts.
  • Conventions for Command Line Options.  Does not mention that short options were classic Unix, while GNU went long.
  • 25 Years of OU – 2000: Open Source Teaching Project.  (via)
  • Critical Digital Infrastructure Research.  Something people don’t think about… and then you get OpenSSL and Heartbleed, etc.  (also via)
  • Perfect Edition: A lightweight, responsive web e-book template.  (via)
  • ZSA Moonlander: A next-generation ergonomic keyboard.  I like the thumb switches.  (via)
  • Similar: Sinc Split Mechanical Keyboard Build Log.  (via)
  • Trademarking Infocom, again, part one and part two.  A followup to the reverse-engineering job post I linked last week.
  • The SQL Murder Mystery.  (via)
  • RIPscrip, something I never encountered before.
  • 10 year long Civ II game, from 8 years ago.  (via)
  • Helicopter crash tests.  (via)
  • Play the history of Microsoft Flight Simulator.  (via)
