Bathar-cruaidh agus Bathar-bog (Hardware and Software)

The hardware and the software.


One question that is often asked is what is machine language?

Seldom written about but all programs are compiled or interpreted into machine language, in order to run.

Programming languages are often graded by level. 

Machine language is the lowest as it is closest to the surface of the machine and hence runs much faster. While languages such as Python are termed high level languages far from the surface of the machine and closer to the language of the individual(s) writing it. They often execute slower as the amount of compilation or interpretation takes longer to render the program into a form that can be run. They often rely on faster machines to run. With the speed increase of machines over the last decade the rise of such high level languages have increased. With server based services also being widely used. Which is what most, but not all, websites are stored on. Python is widely used for data gathering and providing the statistical information throughout the world. Python is also widely used in graphic manipulation such as Adobe Premier, After effects and the like. This does not make such systems efficient as the lower the programming level the more accurate the memory and resource allocation can be.

Stigmatisation

Single parent father rather than being helped and supported is being stigmatized by those who are supposedly there to help. Not good. I will always stand up against the stigmatisation of others in all it's forms. I hope you do too.

Personal Blog

I realise this blog is no longer just read by me now. I also know the posts are quite personal in tone, I apologise up to a point but one of things I deal with on a regular basis is the isolation. This blog was set up in order to help with that. Putting thoughts out there in printed form means I can edit and rephrase as I go.  Others may think these posts a waste of time. I for one do not. The reason is I can reflect, change, adapt posts as I see fit. Hope to educate those who do not understand and maybe help articulate better in time.

Human failure

This blog began as a cathartic exercise. To allow me to express myself in a way that I had not done before. Always the quiet one in the corner. Much preferring quiet discussions than backslapping revelry. We find human failure such a shock sometimes. However it happens all the time. We set people up for failure within our educational system. Things may have changed since my time. In my time they tried to create automotons out of an animal that wants to laugh and play. Perhaps they still do this from where you are. The system put questions before you that very seldom crossed your mind. Do the answers progress your understanding of the world and universe around you? Did the answers make you a better more wealthy person?  The world is a beautifull place and people in it are on the most part wholesome and kind. Others are in such a rush to go there and go back that they have no time for people and discourse. Others are so comprimised by circumstance that they struggle to escape the tra...
