Lori And I Have Been Doing This Project, ...

... well, in my imagination at any rate. I really wanted to do it In Real Life, ... but that hasn't happened. I think of it as having started here, on August 13, 2019: Lori on Extraterrestrial Life, but Lori has been reporting on Green stuff since goodness-only-knows when. Last night I had a weird dream. Lori came along in some kind of covered perambulator thing, like child's pram with a plastic see-thru rain cover. I saw her in there and went up and tried to kiss her through the plastic. She kind of recoiled, like you'd expect her to. But then we were trying to get a phone to work, ... but it wasn't a smartphone, it was one of those wireless handsets with a key-pad and an LCD display. It had a green loop of plastic around the edge that lit up, but that was all it did. This morning I remembered this Sci-Fi Short, and my comment(s!😂) on her video about dinosaur fossils: Lori on All The New Dinosaurs:

I thought I'd posted something about this when it came out in April, 2020, but I can't find it, ... I did find this though, ... Lyre Bird.

... 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, ...

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
