"C3 is a C-like language striving to be an evolution of C, rather than a completely new language"

Are there any B-Tree data structures written in Forth that use block storage to store each nodes? Seems like a fun project. Curious if its been done.

Any ideas how to identify this monster. It was about the size of the palm of my hand. Came across is while walking near #Vigo #Galicia

Lemley says that if a seller prices their product at $25 with the EULA and $1 million without, then the buyer who accepts the EULA is handing over $999,975 worth of value when they click "I agree." Lemley says we should tax that as income.

This is a fascinating way of looking at the problem of price-gouging and other ways of sabotaging a fair contracting system: it aligns the incentives of companies with their customers.

Hi! I'm Camila, an artist and illustrator with a love for fantasy and horror.
I've worked with novel covers, concept art and games in general. I lean towards character art but try to keep a broader focus to cultivate the toolset needed for my own weird projects.

Looking forward to meeting other creatives!

Bad comparison: one of the best character arcs in any movie is Yvonne from Casablanca (here is a great article that analyzes the best scene in the movie and talks about her: https://seveninchesofyourtime.com/cinemas-greatest-scene-casablanca-and-la-marseillaise/). I'd like to posit that the "rat thing" dog in #SnowCrash is a similarly satisfying 1 minute of screen time (albeit with less character development). It's a brief aside that tells an entire story (while letting you fill in the details) and gives the main story some depth and color. #books
