![]() Anyone can do (and lots of people do) ill-informed hand-wavy postulations about what-ifs, but the process of actually building things that do work forces your hand in ways that armchair enthusiasts miss. Bootstrapping forces an order on what you do that gives a particular structure to the presentation, while at the same time we have aspirations about what future elements we want to achieve that shape and give context to all kinds of decisions as we work out how to get there.Īfter showing how to build something today, we can do a compare-and-contrast against the existing Coherent code that's more meaningful, especially because we can then measure the outcomes. Recontextualising that code, and re-examining those decisions in the light of the modern day is just more interesting to me, and as well provides the chance to lead people through the process of solving the design problems in a way that's narratively easier to follow. That's particularly true because so many point design decisions made in commercial codebases like Coherent were conditional on a wider context - both technological and business - that just doesn't exist any more, and that I think gets in the way of helping younger people reaching a deeper understanding and appreciation of the design decisions made. ![]() The approach you take in your books is one that I think is inspiring to people to get them trying these things on their own - which is after all where the real hard learning happens. The big thing I think with any book is to aim to inspire people (especially younger ones) to create for themselves, and while there's probably a way to do that with an exegesis of the existing source I don't know what it would be. I've always wanted to give Coherent a bit of a conceptual reboot for modern x86 (particularly multicore, which means a complete new kernel) but staying to the 16/32-bit size and with a style similar to your books walking through the process of making it and how all the design choices need to interlock to make that possible is something I wish I had the free time for. Another big part of why the size-coding style mattered was keeping the system comprehensible since with only a few developers everyone was spread so thin, but that's again part of the fascination. ![]() Doing the 4.0 release process I really pushed myself hard to get as much POSIX compatibility in as humanly possible, but the balancing act was the size-coding part - making /bin/sh still be 16-bit while having $(()) and shell functions and able to process those insane MB-sized GNU autoconf scripts that embedded >64kb here documents, etc. I do think the fact that Coherent really hewed 100% to the original V6 approach based on the basic design constraints of bootstrapped minimalism was part of the charm. Hey Nils, love your work - back around '90 when I joined Mark Williams I was a big Scheme fan, so your whole t3x.org site and "Scheme 9 from Empty Space" particularly puts a smile on my dial.

![]() "Our guitarist Fred – a big Tom Petty fan – lent me the Peter Bogdanovich documentary Runnin' Down a Dream, and that is outstanding. And that style itself came from happenstance, from a viewing of a DVD, not from some carefully thought-out strategy. Fink says the main reason for the continuation is that after 18 months of touring that style, it felt like the natural way to play. I also wonder if Fink now being settled explains why Heart of Nowhere is the first Noah album to sound as though it was made by the same band as the one before, for here again is the sleek, machine-tooled MOR rock of Last Night on Earth. It's a nice house, tastefully decorated and furnished (a friend's girlfriend, studying interior design, did it for him), and I wonder if all the advertising deals for 5 Years Time – cars, crisps, cereal, all around the globe – have paid for it. Sitting in Fink's new home in a leafy inner-London suburb, it's hard not to think that maybe contentment has befallen him. I'd take out the booklet and write songs for those lyrics, not listening to the CD – I'd find the melody for them. They were covered in masking tape, so you wouldn't know what was in there. "When I first started writing," he says, "I'd buy packs of 10 CDs for £5. ![]() Mind you, its gaucheness is perhaps unsurprising, given that Fink has been a lyrical autodidact: he'd listen to melodies first, lyrics coming a distant second. Noah's breakthrough hit, 5 Years Time, opened with desperately unpromising lyrics: "Oh well, in five years' time we could be walking round a zoo/ With the sun shining down over me and you/ And there'll be love in the bodies of the elephants, too." Ahem. In a way that's a good thing, because once you've made a personal record, people trust you a bit more, which I think is important."įink would once have been surprised himself at the idea he would deal with themes. The third, Last Night on Earth, told short stories in song, a deliberate move away from autobiography. The second Noah and the Whale album, The First Days of Spring, dealt with his heartbreak at the end of his relationship with Laura Marling (who had sung on its predecessor, 2008's Peaceful, the World Lays Me Down). "Themes" have been Fink's big thing over the last few years. It starts off with a first song that's a melodramatic story of a kid wanting to break away from his family, basically, to acceptance of your family and who you are and who you want to be as a man." "One of the main themes, beyond nostalgia and the end of adolescence, is acceptance. And so the transition to adulthood – with marriage as one of the final tollbooths – became the central conceit of the album. Charlie Fink performs material from the new album as well as old favourites in a special live session. ![]() Why does a Caramel Macchiato have vanilla syrup?

Did Starbucks discontinue the cloud macchiato? What’s a macchiato? A macchiato is a much stronger coffee drink than a latte, offering more bold flavors and caffeine. Starbucks’ caramel macchiato is a classic and tasty treat Alexa Blay, a former Starbucks barista, told Insider that the caramel macchiato is one of the best drinks on the menu. It comes in two flavors, Caramel, which tastes just like a regular Caramel Macchiato, and Cinnamon, which features both cinnamon flavors and complementary hints of lemon. What does the cloud macchiato taste like? I like the subtle caramel flavor, too, which isn’t overbearing with its sweetness. It makes the bitter espresso much easier to drink (especially for coffee wimps like me, who rarely drink espresso or even black coffee).

Olga and Dexter then got into a heated discussion whether Mandark had died or not. Although everything seemed normal, there were some tension among Dexter, Blossom and Olga. Some time later, the whole gang, including Dexter, went to the beach. After that he started acting weird towards Blossom. After fixing it, Blossom told Dexter that the real name of Olga was Lalavava Astronominov, which shocked Dexter because he found out that Olga was the younger sister of Mandark. Olga, however, sees him when he's about to leave and asked if there was a genius who could fix the stage equipment and Dexter replied he could do that. Blossom noticing this suggested that they should leave, which he initially agrees to. However, he became depressed after seeing Bubbles dance as it reminded him of Dee Dee. ![]() At school Blossom attended dance lessons and Dexter came too. When she was at home, Blossom explained to Dexter that she once also had a sister but since she was unstable she died.Ī few days later Dexter was in a battle with a globmonster, but failed and was saved by the girls. Megas came in the building to save the girls and Dexter, so they escaped while leaving Mandark behind. Mandark then activated his laboratory to self-destruct, which triggered many bombs in order to kill Dexter and the Powerpuff Girls as well as himself. Buttercup came to save him and defeated the Cluster. After the Cluster began crushing Dexter, he fell unconscious. Mandark summoned a giant Cluster to attack Dexter. Blossom returned alive and Mandark told Dexter that he also had a sister, and during his explanation he gradually became angrier and thought Dexter wanted to kill his sister. He complied and Dee Dee asked Blossom to take care of Dexter until she one day returns. ![]() When she was dead, she encountered Grim who was ready to take her with him, but the spirit of Dee Dee came and asked Grim to let her stay alive.

He said, “This one thing I do,” not “these 40 things I dabble in.” He did one thing with his life-the most important thing. His focus helped him endure the pain and stress and persecution. He modeled an iron will and fulfilled his purpose-even though even though he knew it would lead to his death. Luke 9:51 says, “As the time drew near for his return to heaven, moved steadily onward toward Jerusalem with an iron will” (TLB). He lived a selective life, and it allowed him to give his life for God’s kingdom and do what pleased his Father. You’ll realize what matters most in life, and you’ll choose not just good things but the most important things. You’ll set priorities that have an eternal focus. When you know where you’re headed and you focus in that direction, then you’re less likely to be distracted by less important things.
