techplex··on LLVM/GCC Integration Proposal (2005)
Interesting quote from the email thread: ``` On the positive side, LLVM has a lot more experience in managing whole program compilation, and it is a much cleaner software base. It would be a good to find some mechanism to take advantage of that experience. Trying to make the hippo dance is not really a lot of fun. ```

techplex··on Raspberry Pi 400 – First Impressions
I don't blame them, Linux touchpad drivers are horrendously bad. I can imagine a young person tryin to learn to use the pi400 and them getting frustrated because the touchpad is hard to use.

I wonder if there are any studies that show a mouse is easier to learn than a touchpad or vise versa.

techplex··on Ask HN: Learning to code, without a computer?
Neil Fraser wrote about getting a letter from a an inmate wanting to learn to program. He sent two books and a problem to solve.

CS Unplugged: Computer Science without a computer and Nine Algorithms That Changed the Future: The Ingenious Ideas That Drive Today's Computers. I've also posed a problem for him to ponder:

"You have five fingers on your hand (usually -- a few people have more, many have fewer). Each finger can be either extended, or curled up. So a fist would be all fingers curled up, a high-five would be all fingers extended, and many other combinations exist (including the obscene middle-finger gesture, and probably a whole lot of gang signs). What is the total number of possible combinations that can be produced using five fingers? Can you do them all? What is the total number of possible combinations that can be produced using ten fingers? Can you figure out a pattern so that you could calculate how many possible combinations there would be if you had 16 fingers?"

Fantastic Idea!

Just one thought as I was playing with your site, I wish there was a way to center the text on my pinegram. I wonder if this would be less of an issue if the anchor point of the text was in the center and not the left corner.

Edit

Does your CNC support any unicode characters? Hearts, PI, Fractions, Copyright...
