Microsoft is celebrating its 50th anniversary, and in honour of this milestone, Bill Gates has published a blog post about the first code the company ever wrote. In 1975, Paul Allen and I created Microsoft because we believed in our vision of a computer on every desk and in every home. Five decades later, Microsoft continues to innovate new way … ⌘ Read more

Grab the iPhone 16e Default Wallpaper
Perhaps you recently saw that Apple had released the iPhone 16e and drooled with envy at the iPhone 16e default wallpaper, which sort of looks like a drop of Liquid Metal (why did macOS Sequoia autocorrect capitalize “Liquid Metal”?

An AlphaStation’s SROM
The AlphaStation 500 is a workstation from Digital, circa 1996. Mine is a 500 MHz model and has an Alpha 21164A processor (aka EV56). And the way it boots is weird. On your common-or-garden PC, there has always been some kind of ROM chip. It holds a piece of firmware known as the BIOS. This ROM chip is available at a well-known location in the processor’s address space (remembering that any PC processor boots up in 16-bit, 8088 compatible mode, with a 1 MiB address space, just like an I … ⌘ Read more

10 Political Terms With Curious Origins
The words we use in the context of politics reveal much of the history of how humans have attempted to govern themselves. Many originate from ancient Greece and Rome, where the first representative assemblies closely matching our own arose. The very word “politics” comes from the Greek polities, meaning “city, citizen.” The Romans gave us […]

Urbár dediny Kulpín
V roku 1767 vydala panovníčka Mária Terézia Tereziánsky urbár – súpis o povinnostiach a právach pre poddaných. Urbár bol súčasťou reforiem Márie Terézie, ktoré mali zlepšiť hospodársku situáciu, ale aj postavenie poddaných a určiť presné pravidlá pre feudálne vzťahy. Toto nariadenie bolo jednotné v celej krajine a museli ho teda dodržiavať aj na kulpínskom panstve. Urbárium Kulpína z roku 1772 je dôležitým historickým prameňom, ktorý ukazuje, ako boli organizované poddanské po … ⌘ Read more
