@An_laetificat Entire album is good, but I really like "Morpheus" which is playing now in fact.

@syscrusher 4040 came after 4004 with 24 spindly legs that could easily bend if you didn't line up just right!

I do NOT miss the old days...

@syscrusher
Wow you were way more advanced than me in the dark ages with 4040! Hand-crafted machine code burned into EPROM. Oh, boy, if that doesn't betray my age...

This is a picture of my dad, one of the founders of the CIA and top advisor to JFK.

Photo's caption, National Geographic April 1968, 1st Lt. Carl M. Freeman III:

"Smiles of welcome light the faces of Mnong women and children at Buon Rocai as Lt. Freeman pays a surprised visit. Devoted to the people's welfare, the American helped reconstruct a bridge and rebuild a burned-out village; with the aid of U.S. Army medic Owen Wright of Dallas, Texas., he expanded medical facilities to treat the sick. After four months of intensive effort, Freeman collapsed of exhaustion and malaria. Now recovered, he commands the Special Forces team at An Lac."

Shall we have a morning #poem to start the day?
OK then. Here's a cheery one about a helpful little friend:
And here are some hashtags: #poetry #WritingCommunity

Hello from a past embedded software engineer. It's not often that I run into one anywhere. We are a special breed, aren't we?
Rust? Is that a better C? How about Assembler or machine-code? In my retirement days, I'm lazy with Java!

@SETIEric
Wow, IRQ brings back memories; used to write drivers in C.

Good Afternoon.

If you've never treated your ears to The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions can I recommend you correct that?

These recordings from '69 are a transitional period for Davis, they show him moving towards fusion. At the time it was dismissed by critics. It's now considered one of his finest albums.

You can hear the modal jazz slipping into fusion, the repeated patterns clearly influence experimental hip hop and there are elements of #Ambient starting to take shape.

#Jazz

here i'm just rummaging through stuff in a dark attic. while interesting but how do i follow after searching for hashtag like ?
