My homepage on SDF is up and running: http://rio.freeshell.org.
But it will only contain a redirect to this gopherhole ;-)

Finally I managed to get my SDF-account validated :-). This public
UNIX is absolutely gorgeous!

I realized that my prevalidated membership expired. Should have
expected that as I never managed to send a single Dollar to the US.
Shame on me. But now it works again :-) I added a super cool copy
of the working group homepage. As it is pure html by default, this
doesn't look bad.

I limited the gopherhole to 69 characters today. Is recommended.

06.03.2021

I extended the gopherhole to 74 characters today.

I made the first real contact with the Julia language today. Not
sure whether it can replace anything and simply my life somehow.
Maybe it's only another piece of distraction.

Handed in a proposal today. Now I need del *.*

Wonder why people prefer Python over R when doing data analysis.
Maybe they think it's cool to make everything more complicated.
Wonder why people prefer Python over Fortran when it comes to
programming. Maybe they think it's cool to make everything more
complicated. Wonder why people prefer using their cell phones over
writing a letter when communicating. Maybe they think it's cool to
make everything more complicated.
... Maybe I should teach a course on retrocomputing ;-)

Not sure whether to use the default menu structure or edit it by my
own. But realized how to process a system command in the gophermap:
=/usr/bin/uptime. Wow, that's cool!

The first time I came into contact with gopher must have been begin
of the nineties. It's fantastic to see that it is alive and survived
the information overflow www. I really love its simplicity. Let's
make the community grow again ;-)

Feels good to be back home.
