TangoAh, so you think I’m going to talk about the dance called Tango; but no, this time I’m going to talk about an album called “Tango”, by those two towering figures of Argentine rock, namely Charly García and Pedro Aznar.
NeXTClockSo here is a new project on GitLab called NeXTClock: a small browser-based recreation of a NeXTSTEP-style clock applet from the 1990s. This modern version renders a 64-unit clock face into a square <canvas> using JavaScript and requestAnimationFrame(), with optional scaling from 64 to 500 pixels, because, well, Java Applets aren’t really a thing anymore.

Conway in HaskellAt this point it’s becoming increasingly clear that I can ask Cursor to read any of the implementations of my Conway and translate that into any other programming language that I want; this is what I’ve done last year with NASM, Scala, and Bash, and this year with Haskell.

OktubreLet me tell you the story of what was sounding in Buenos Aires’ FM radios almost exactly 40 years ago.
TypstThree years ago I wrote about a workflow to generate PDF files out of my Markdown content, both on this website and on De Programmatica Ipsum. That first setup involved Pandoc and TeX, and it was a solution that worked well, but was unfortunately slow as hell, particularly given the amount of articles I have in both sites. A faster solution was badly needed.
eiPottIn this blog I’ve often mentioned the name of my late friend Bertrand Dufresne, who passed away 10 years ago this year. Despite all the good memories I have with him, I wanted to remember him through an object he offered me once.
