Ex-Ptowners Cleaning Up Prizes, Isle of Dogs Food, Paperless X « Pink IguanaCanary Wharf/Isle of Dogs

rjl and Ken Regan, GLL, 26 Mar 2021, Congrats Avi and Laci on the Abel Prize, here.

Today Ken and I wish to send our congratulations to Avi and Laci—László Lovász—on winning the 2021 Abel Prize.

Cade Metz, NYT, 31 Mar. 2021, Turing Award Goes to Creators of Computer Programming Building Blocks, here .

On Wednesday, the Association for Computing Machinery, the world’s largest society of computing professionals, said Dr. Aho and Dr. Ullman would receive this year’s Turing Award for their work on the fundamental concepts that underpin computer programming languages. Given since 1966 and often called the Nobel Prize of computing, the Turing Award comes with a $1 million prize, which the two academics and longtime friends will split.

Dr. Aho and Dr. Ullman helped refine one of the key components of a computer: the “compiler” that takes in software programs written by humans and turns them into something computers can understand.

Bill Blain, Blain’s Morning Porridge, 1 Apr. 2021, Things Can Only Get ? here. The best part is the start up to get better food delivery to Morgan Stanley at Canary Wharf, they don’t call it Isle of Dogs for nothing.

You really can’t compete with the madness we see all around and everyday. From SPACs of “tech” companies using Excel spread-sheets to make a dollar sale for every $5 they spend. Meme stocks that roller-coaster depending on the anger of RobinHoods. An unwearable digital sneaker that costs $10k as a Non-Fungible Token. ESG funds with oil majors as their top positions, or the sustainables fund highlighting an auto’s green bond dedicated to improving car safety as an ESG compliant investment – car safety? Who would have thought? Or a fund up to its’ oxters in tumbling EV paper sagely declaring the stock will quadruple despite rising competition.

Paperless X, here. Oddly highly detailed reviews of note taking software for pads.
