This is one of the more concise description of tensors I found.

It’s designed to explain what’s unique about them and the concepts behind them rather than the mechanics of their mathematical definition.

It’s sort of nice to expand on areas of mathematics that one didn’t get in college […]

After 2 months and ~300 builds, I've finally packaged CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) for Debian - resolving a 7-year-old ITP (#915400).

This also enabled packaging stremio-gtk, the new GTK4 Stremio shell.

58 patches to build Chromium without Google infrastructure. Technical deep-dive […]

They mixed up some things, because conquerv5 is by Adam Bryant, not me, but the summary is good enough
Resurrecting Conquer: A Game From The 1980s
[Juan] describes himself as a software engineer, a lover of absurd humor, and, among other things, a player of Nethack. We think he should add computer game archaeologist to that list. In the 1990s, he played a game that had first appeared on USENET in 1987. Initially called “Middle-earth multiplayer game,” it was soon rebranded with the catchier moniker, Conquer. It may not seem like a big thing today, but writing multiplayer software and distributing it widely was pretty rare stuff in the late 1980s or early 1990s. In 2006, [Juan] realized that this game, an intellectual predecessor to so many later games, was in danger of being lost forever. The source code was scattered around different archives, and it wasn’t clear what rights anyone had to the source code. [Juan] set out to find the original authors [Edward Barlow] and [Adam Bryant]. Of course, their e-mail addresses from USENET were long dead. With persistence, he finally found [Barlow] in 2006. He was amenable to [Juan] porting the code over, but didn’t know how to contact [Bryant]. [Juan] continued to leave posts and follow up leads. He did eventually find [Bryant], who read one of the posts about the project and offered his permission to GPL the code. This was in 2011, nearly five years after the release from [Barlow]. He also discovered there was a third author who was also game. Unfortunately, [Richard Caley] had already passed away, so there was no way to obtain his release. You can compare the original version with the new updated version from [Juan]. A software accomplishment worthy of Indiana Jones. We love digging through old code. Especially for software that was especially influential.

While cleaning a storage room, our staff found this tape containing #unix v4 from Bell Labs, circa 1973

This is a story that started more than 25 years ago, when I was an student of computer sciences.

In 1987, when software was distributed through USENET newsgroups in split text files, Edward Barlow posted something special to comp.sources.games: "conquest – […]

MicroHobby 218
La emblemática revista española **MicroHobby** , dedicada a la Sinclair ZX Spectrum y más tarde a otras computadoras de 8 bits, regresa con su **número 218** , retomando el conteo que quedó inconcluso en enero de 1992. El lanzamiento se realizó a mediados de junio de 2025, gracias a la iniciativa de la editorial **Hecho con Pixels** y al veterano editor **José Luis Sanz** , quien fue parte del equipo original. El renacer de la revista cuenta con parte del **equipo de principios de los años 90’s** , como **Gabriel Nieto** , **Amalio Gómez** , **José Emilio Barbero** , y **Ángel de Andrés** , entre otros. También vuelven algunos colaboradores históricos como **Andrés Samudio** (“El Viejo Archivero”) y **Pedro J. Ramírez**. Las ilustraciones de portada estarán a cargo de **Jesús Martínez del Vas** , homenajeando a José María Ponce, el clásico ilustrador de MicroHobby. Enfoque y secciones renovadas: * **Historia de la revista** : un repaso de su trayectoria desde 1984 hasta 1992. * **Home computers** : tendrá cobertura de sistemas hogareños como las Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64 y MSX. * **Homebrew y actualidad** : noticias y reportajes sobre nuevos desarrollos de software, hardware y periféricos. * **Talleres de programación** : curso de creación de juegos clásicos (incluido por primera vez en el Nº 218). * **Efemérides y nostalgia** : entrevistas a protagonistas y juegos inéditos de los años 80’s. * **Secciones clásicas restauradas** : este número marcará el regreso de «El Viejo Archivero» y otras secciones queridas de la revista. La MicroHobby 218 retoma una publicación clave para generaciones de usuarios de ZX Spectrum, amplía su estrategia a sistemas múltiples de 8 bits, adaptándose al interés actual en retroinformática, y estrena un modelo de **impresión bajo demanda y digital** , ideal para lectores con suscripción continua sin dispersión en kioscos de revistas. El N° 218 está **disponible desde el 23 de junio de 2025** , y los primeros envíos en papel programados para el 14 de julio. La publicación se ofrece en **versión física** (solo bajo demanda) y **formato digital** , con opción de suscripción a ambos formatos cada 6 semanas. Los precios iniciales son de 4,99 € para su versión digital, 10,99 € para su edición en papel, y 12,99 € para un combinado de ambos formatos. Se puede comprar a través de la tienda online de la editorial **Hecho con Pixels** desde aquí: > Microhobby nº218 El número 218 de **MicroHobby** marca un hito en el mundo retro hispano: revive una publicación icónica con la misma pasión, sumando actualidad, tutoriales y cultura homebrew con el respaldo del equipo original y una estructura moderna bajo demanda, en un regreso altamente nostálgico.
