I read the headline in Celsius and thought that they were a bit too hot.

Would add a new fun dimension to Jurassic Park.

"Quick! Climb to 300 meters above sea level and the trex will boil and we will be safe!"

to make it even more egregious:

"Quick! Climb to about 1000 feet above sea level and the trex will boil and we will be safe!"

I know you were talking about a mountain or something, but "climb to " does make one think about this exchange which would be in feet, not meters:

"climb to FL20 and the flying dinosaur thing will break" could work though

Since, annoyingly, international altitudes are done in increments of 1000 feet (ish, handwaving)

Ancient Rome also had slavery.

What does it have to do with the Lisp machine?

Presumably it's a machine command runner (like shell commands and whatnot - as opposed to an Emacs command runner, perhaps).

Pretty much all of graphics research now revolves around machine learning, whether it’s neural networks or something like Gaussian splatting.

Starovery (Old Believers) maybe?

Blogspam, here’s the source: https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-updates-next-steps-fo...

It's derived from Jedi Academy's source code which is licensed under GPL.

FreeBSD is definitely not a "GPL OS", the license is right in the name!

Guess he meant non-free OS. I still don't get the point though, cause someone who cares so much about FOSS wouldn't be criticizing SL vs Leopard, he'd just not use Mac OS.

To be pedantic “BSD” is the name of the original distribution that FreeBSD is based on, and the license is also named after it (rather than FreeBSD being named after the license).

A/UX predates Xserve by 14 years.

And how much did A/UX sell? I Have an A/UX coffee mug in my kitchen. It even has a phone number on it.

That repository is not the engine, it's just the code for the client.dll/server.dll binaries that contain game-specific logic and some other tools.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife on the other hand is the full Half-Life (GoldSrc) engine, but it's not quite an open license.

That is just the SDK, but there is an unofficial open source implementation of goldsrc.

Also based on leaks/reverse-engineering.

I'm pretty sure this is just the mod SDK as well.
