forth.com/resources/forth-prog I love this story about Forth at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory; Moore wired up all the telescopes to be controlled interactively by a Forth program (reviewing old observations visually as new data was flowing in; interactive computing was almost unheard of at the time) but he was the only one who knew the language, so they brought in Rather to rewrite it in FORTRAN.

My biggest concern with Mastodon is that my account is tied to this specific instance. What happens if @ashfurrow turns it off?
