Folks here may want to read more than just this piece at The Stacks Reader. But first, a disclaimer: The site is run by a dear friend and I have done a lot of behind the scenes work on the site content.

So why poke around the site? The site's mission is clear: "A living archive of the best print journalism." What the site operator does is, essentially, rescue good journalism that would otherwise be lost to microfilm. Nearly all (if not all) the content pre-dates the internet, and these pieces become virtually unavailable without efforts like this. Everything is done with permission from the rights holders and this effort allows anyone to experience journalism across a range of subjects and styles that at one point captured some of a cultural zeitgeist.

Great website, the first thing I did after reading the article was think: hey, what is this place? and went to the main menu.

Best of luck to you all going forward.

Looks very interesting.

You might give some consideration to https.

Not my department, so to speak, but I will pass that along. Thank you.

Heh, I thought it was going to be this:

http://www.paulgraham.com/thist.html

likewise, I thought it was about that one too. T also has a (minimal) wikipedia page, for those who don't want to read the whole essay by pg.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_(programming_language)

Note it's by shivers, not pg (who I don't think was involved with T). It is worth reading the whole thing.

Same. I'm sûre some would say olin was a plt gangster. Or maybe a godfather figure.
