RSS & del.icio.us

I’ve been playing around with RSS more and more lately and have accumulated a list of relevant links.

The Importance of RSS

Somewhat related is del.icio.us, an online bookmark service that integrates RSS and tags to create something larger out of all the bookmarks.

Dave Devries’s Monster Engine

Dave Devries has an excellent idea, the Monster Engine. He takes kids drawings of monsters, superheros and other stuff, creates his interpretation and then shows both drawings side by side.

Agile Advice

I’ve always been watching trends in software development and one that looks very useful is Agile Software Development.

Agile Advice – How and Why to Work Agile takes some of the same principles and extends them to business in general. Some of this may prove to be faddish and not so useful for business but much of it is useful and matches my experience on successful and not so successful projects.

    • The language of choice - Propositional logic was discovered by Stoics around 300 B.C., only to be abandoned in later antiquity and rebuilt in the 19th century by George Boole’s successors. One of them, Charles Peirce, saw its significance for what we now call logic circuits, yet that discovery too was forgotten until the 1930s. In the ’50s John McCarthy invented conditional expressions, casting the logic into the form we’ll study here; then in 1986 Randal Bryant repeated one of McCarthy’s constructions with a crucial tweak that made his report “for many years the most cited paper in all of computer science, because it revolutionized the data structures used to represent Boolean functions” (Knuth).1 Let’s explore and code up some of this heritage of millennia, and bring it to bear on a suitable challenge: playing tic-tac-toe.

      Then we’ll tackle a task that’s a little more practical: verifying a carry-lookahead adder circuit. Supposedly logic gets used all the time for all kinds of serious work, but for such you’ll have to consult the serious authors; what I can say myself, from working out the code to follow, is that the subject offers a fun playground plus the most primitive form of the pun between meaning and mechanism.

      You’re encouraged to read with this article’s code cloned and ready
