There's nothing wrong with doing what you love to do for its own sake. If you really put your heart and soul into it then it is transformative, and it transforms you as much as it does anyone else. That was my experience at any rate. And it all really took off when I finally had enough money saved up to concentrate on doing what I really wanted to do. That was a lot of apparently quite different things in my case. I was climbing mountains, learning about living in a foreign country (Bolivia) and studying all the things I found most perplexing in mathematics and computing. And it all came together impressively quickly for me. That said, a whole of things came apart at the same time. I got deep vein thrombosis and nearly died! Then my friends and family disowned me, ... then I ran out of money and was literally starving, ... But I still wanted to study and write more than anything else, so I just carried on, ... And I'm still doing the same twelve years later, except without the resources or security that I had when I started in 2009. I just do the best I can and hope that others with the wherewithal to actually make these ideas of mine concrete things, pick up some and run with them.

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 ...
