A page of text photographed from the code book by Simon saying the highlighted passage reads Garfield estimated that 100 megahertz Intel Pentium computer without megabytes of RAM would take roughly 50 years to factor a number as big as 10 to the 130
Rereading "The code book" by Simon Singh.
His 100Mhz Pentium with 8Gb of RAM feels a little cute these days.

All I want for Christmas is to work on Windows with WSL2 and Hyper-v VMs and Docker and a VPN and not have the network stack completely $#!& itself
This, I have found, is a tall order.

Screen shot from task manager on win11. Firefox with 17 processes is using 2.8Gb memory and Edge with 24 processes is using about 1Gb
Morning @firefoxperformance.bsky.social
I have 4 tabs open and you are sucking 2.5 gb of memory.
I do love the fox but this is a bit excessive.

PEP 745 β Python 3.14 Release Schedule | peps.python.org
This document describes the development and release schedule for Python 3.14.
As a bit of a #pythonista and a #mathsky #mathsgeek
can I implore the #python 3.14 release managers to make the final bugfix release version 3.14.15 ?

βThe History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why, and Where phases. For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question 'How can we eat?' the second by the question 'Why do we eat?' and the third by the question 'Where shall we have lunch?β
-- quoted from Douglas Adams in Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy
Oh I am so tempted to buy this book for the mere reason that the opening quote is from Douglas Adams

bluesky-map.theo.io has put me in the SAP Developers Ecosystem
Funny thing is - despite having many friends in that ecosystem (gravity well) - I haven't worked in it for about 7 years.
I love my open source languages web dev space now.
