Trailer - Raised By Wolves

This reminds me of a sort of waking nightmare I lived in 2017 or 2018. I was some sort of virtual reality avatar of a long-dead person reincarnated in the far-distant future as the only human being on a duplicate Earth created by humanity as a last chance to survive a holocaust created by a chaotic-dynamic instability in the solar system which resulted in the Earth crashing into the Sun. So I was solely responsible for teaching the people on this fake planet about their true purpose in life and getting them to take seriously their responsibility which was to steer this new planet into a course that would put it into orbit as Plato's tenth planet, the counter-earth that was always behind the sun, ... It did cross my mind at the time that this might make for a fun movie, ... The nightmare was in trying to convince the people on the spaceship, who didn't know that that's what it was, that I had been put there to help them ...

The movie I imagined was not as good as this one looks!

I also just took this photo of Rafael Gonzales, born here in Tecate, B.C., who told me about a spring near here called Agua Fría , half way from Tecate to Loma Tova , where, a few decades ago, people used to go to have barbecues and stuff, but now he thinks it may be private land. If someone reading this has a Facebook account, please write a link to this post onto his FB page. To see why I took the photo, look at his T-shirt and the horse-shoes and ponder this: Subscribe to BeatrizER and her video(s?) about mathematical logic, ... Sounds like Edith (II) Rix has been online all the t...

This was in The Guardian: David Turner obituary , only eight days after I posted  David Turner Talking About Sixty Years of Functional Programming History : This talk was given in London in 2017: See  Turner, D. A. "Some History of Functional Programming Languages" also  John Hughes - Why Functional Programming Matters  and David MacQueen's talk at ICFP 2015 in  Numberphile - Sophie Maclean on the Catalan Numbers . At 10:30 This whole discussion abut combinator reduction is especially interesting. I didn't know Arthur Norman had tried building hardware for combinator machines. I'll look that up: maybe start here A.C. Norman  Faster combinator reduction using stock hardware  in LFP '88: Proceedings of the 1988 ACM conference on LISP and functional programming. At 26:25 on the ISWIM virtual machine implemented in the PAL compacting garbage collector?! This work Reynolds and others did was at MIT in Masecheusetts and Argonne National Laboratory ...
