Last week, I learned that David M. Tilbrook has died , which made me sad. I did not know him personally and cannot say much about his life, but I studied his publications and software ideas a lot, and consider them interesting, especially from a historic perspective.
I did not know into what rabbit hole I’d fall when I clicked on last week’s Lazy Reading post and discovered the link to SAILDART . The linked e-book gives a good preview of what we can find there: a complete archive of the Stanford AI project’s PDP-10 setup (a.k.a SAIL), and large parts of it are open for public access!
. Yet, it would turn up again. Sometimes soon, sometimes it took a few weeks.
Last Sunday, we had local elections in Bavaria, and somehow I got nerd-sniped into looking at the proportional representation method that is being used now as of 2020, which is the Sainte-Laguë method .
