From Angus Croll’s If Hemingway Wrote Javascript: Explained. Borges’ solution is a variation on the Sieve of Eratosthenes algorithm by which the multiples of each known prime are marked as composite (non-prime).

John Frank Weaver‘s Artisanal Attorney: “How is an artisanal attorney different from any other attorney? Like other artisans, I pay close attention to my ingredients and process; I am intimately involved in all stages of creation.

From The First Black Friday by William Bradford, by River Clegg. Now as it happened, in the din and the tumulte, a good and freely-thinking Aborigine did stand in his breechclouts and inquire with great clarity the reasone for such monster savings, as well as why they should expire with the sun’s setting, which seemed ratherContinue reading “ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY FOUR”
