Bugs

Credit phb Copied from eMail as an example only: Kel Richards' Ozword of the Day: "Bugs"  With the world stunned by a global computer outage, we find ourselves bombarded by the word ‘bug’—this was not, we are told, a hacking attack, it was a small ‘bug’ in a program patch. But why is such a thing called a ‘bug’?  Well, there is a story behind this use of the word, and, as it happens the story is wrong. But it’s so widespread, let me explain it and then debunk it.  The story is that the word was first used by computer language pioneer Dr Grace Hooper. On September 9, 1947, she was part of team working on Harvard University’s Mark II computer that found a bug gumming up the works—a moth had squeezed into one of the machine’s components—creating a short-circuit.  After extracting it, Dr Hooper taped it to the logbook with the caption ‘first actual case of a bug being found.’ That logbook, with moth intact, is in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History.  It's a great story, and I’m sure it really happened.  But it’s not the origin of the use of ‘bug’ for a defect or fault in a machine or in a process (especially an electrical or electronic one).  That use of the word ‘bug’ has been traced back to at least…

Linked Profile Contact About ——— Entwurf eBook | Author Peter H Bloecker | Active Blogger: Blood pudding, also known as black pudding, is a type of blood sausage that is a traditional delicacy in many parts of the world, particularly in the United Kingdom and Ireland⁶. It's made from animal blood, typically pig's blood, which acts as a binder for other ingredients such as oats or barley. This mixture is then encased and cooked, resulting in a rich, savory sausage that's often served as part of a full breakfast⁷. Cooking with blood is a practice that dates back centuries and is found in various cuisines globally. Blood can be used as a thickener for sauces, a filler in sausages, and even as a solid ingredient in dishes like blood tofu or blood pancakes¹. It's known for its nutritional value, providing a source of iron and protein⁶. Blood sausages are a diverse group of foods, with many regional variations. They can…

But there are times we want to roll up the welcome mat and repel insects, especially mosquitoes. You can do this without using repellents containing chemical ingredients which kill the friendly bugs as well as the nuisances. It’s not all about citronella​​ There are as many ways to foster natural pest control as there are reasons to repel insects like mosquitoes. These pests are the deadliest creatures on earth, killing about a million people a year. They harbor diseases like Malaria, dengue,West Nile virus (and there are no vaccines or medicines to prevent or treat this virus…

Friends

What quality do you value most in a friend? Screenshot prompted by phb DALL.e View from my deck | Credit phh Hmmmm … There are mates and friends. Reading Max Frisch and his Fragebogen Freundschaft first. Nachtgedanken #12 Then I wonder … Freundschaft was a Salute like G’d day mate in the Communist German Democratic Republik. What is a true friend? Some say my dog. Others will call some name or start thinking. I would think Friends are the rare ones, who really listen to you before they judge you. Who never try to teach you. Accept you like you are. Expect nothing but your friendship. Hard to find in fact. My best friends live far away from my Home. But I can come any time and visit them and stay. They would not ask, when are you leaving again … They are happy to see me. These are my friends, and I count them on the fingers of my left hand.
