I stumbled into @JuliaLanguage in January. Spent this year being in love. Last night a young man I tutor asked “what does 2 to the 5000 actually look like?” Julia makes this crazy easy. And @8BitShowAndTell has me thinking I need to do this on a #commodore now

When I fly a retractable gear plane, I check that my gear is down at least 3 times. At the final approach fix, at IFR mins (even on a clear day) and once across the runway threshold. Those that fly with me often know my routine. I wont end up like this poor guy. Hopefully.

One more possible writing platform for #NaNoWriMo is a KIM-1 clone. Have to memorize the hex codes for ASCII characters. 45,000 words at 4 words a minute in hexadecimal is… 187 hours just to “type” it. Extra credit: decode this. Happy Friday! #commodore
