Nuitka, Python research and Physics

Once upon a time ago physics had multiple forces. Each with very distinct traits. These were the early days. Then as time went on people started to realize that weak nuclear force and electromagnetic force were the same sort. That was after discovering that electricity and magnetism were the same, and that is the pattern. It’s called symmetry, equivalence, and so on.

NetBSD support upcoming

My first real UNIX ever was a NetBSD. That was now about 22 years ago. I am still sentimental about it. I had installed it last about 8 years ago. And I still like it. Back in the days, it was the first UNIX to encounter for me, running on Amiga hardware, first of a friend, then on my own.
