At first I hated Opera 7.5, but now I’m starting to like it. I’m trying to use it as my default browser because it’s faster than Safari. I found that I could get rid of most of the toolbars & the sidebar to make it less cluttered. The only problem I find is that itms: URLs don’t work even when I specified iTunes as the handler for it.

Objective-C syntax and runtime for Perl. This is pretty amazing.

My first computer was a COSMAC ELF. Here’s an emulator for OS X.

The ELF was based on RCA’s 1802 processor, a very simple low-power CMOS CPU. It featured 16 general purpose registers (16 bits each) and a very simple clean instruction set: the first 4 bits of each 8 bit opcode specified the operation and the last 4 bits specified the register to use, or in a few cases branch condition or other special instructions. The ELF was programmed via a hex keypad and it was fairly easy to hand-code machine language.
