happy 30th to doom a game that was built later than i was

Today, 55 years ago Douglas Engelbart gave the "The Mother of All Demos"

In the same session he introduced:

  • the computer mouse,

  • hypertext, and

  • the bit-mapped graphical user interface.

These concepts are nowadays as common as air and paved the way for Microsoft and Apple.

Unluckily I was not invited to the demo. Probably because I was only two years old at that time 😄​.

Douglas Engelbart sadly passed away in 2013, but Engelbart's law remains.

Today my sister and her fiancée got some upsetting news that throws their immigration and marriage plans into disarray. There’s absolutely nothing I can do to fix it, and it feels fucking terrible. If anyone has an extra buck or two, please consider helping them out. Taylor is part of my chosen family and I very much want her to be able to live happily with her fiancée Millie in the UK. https://www.gofundme.com/f/get-taylor-and-millie-together
