Amanda

I just had a really great chat with Amanda, passing through Tapachula on her way to Guatemala. It's great how I get to meet really interesting people on Thursdays here! See Ian Grant's Real Weather Report and Zachary Denman - Human Self.

She mentioned hearing John Cleese talking about how negativity kills the creative process. I found this great interview with Iain McGilchrist. I have micro-agressing John Cleese ever since I heard his name! On Mexicans: 12:52:


Here's part II:

See John Cleese on Why He's Leaving Britain for The Carribean.

We also talked about Sylvia Plath and T.S. Eliot. T.S. Eliot died in 1965, two years after Sylvia Plath. I thought The Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock was written in 1963 or thereabouts, much later than it actually was (early 20s). See Room 2 (Patent Leather Do-Over) by Lana Del Rey and The Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock by T S Eliot. See also Nick Cave & Warren Ellis - Balcony Man.

    Thanks, that's a great interview with John Cleese. So much more that could've been said but still pretty revealing and I love how ready he is to say out loud what most don't even want to hear!

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 Illinois. Did

... and his posterity too? See  On Communication in Linear Time And Hypertext And The Gospel of Sophia . So it looks like El Cielo of the cistine [sic!😂] chapel is not the limit anymore.  I think I just met one of his descendents. A guy called Versailles Toledo who is from Chiapas. That might explain the murals I mention in my recent untitled post , just before the post mentioning this video. 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, ...
