ARPANET 地图
一张 ARPANET 地图,它是互联网的前身,展示了 1977 年连接到网络的 111 个计算机终端。
ARPANET 由美国国防部创建,旨在让研究人员能够共享信息和资源。 该网络最初仅限于大学和研究机构。
到 1983 年,ARPANET 拥有超过 4,000 台连接的计算机和越来越多的电子邮件用户。 ARPANET 完成报告总结说:“这个项目启动的技术变革的全部影响可能在许多年内都无法理解。”
1977 年 ARPANET 的完整地图。 更多...

第一封 SPAM 邮件
第一封 SPAM 邮件由 Digital Equipment Corporation 的营销经理 Gary Thuerk 发送。 Thuerk 向 ARPANET 上的 320 名收件人发送了这封电子邮件,宣传新的 DECSYSTEM-20 大型计算机的产品介绍。
对这封电子邮件的反应非常负面:一位用户声称它破坏了他的计算机系统,美国国防通信局致电他的公司进行投诉。 Thuerk 声称他通过这次活动售出了价值 1300 万至 1400 万美元的大型计算机。
术语“spam”直到多年以后才被使用,灵感来自 Monty Python 的小品。

(*%)
How about using * for good jokes and % for bad jokes? We could even use *% for jokes that are so bad, they're funny.

:-)
I propose that the following character sequence for joke markers:
:-)
Read it sideways. Actually, it is probably more economical to mark things that are NOT jokes, given current trends. For this, use
:-(
1982
第一个 Smiley 表情
互联网上第一次记录使用 Smiley 表情是在 1982 年,当时计算机科学家 Scott Fahlman 建议使用 :-) 和 :-( 来区分在线的笑话和严肃帖子。
该提议是为了回应卡内基梅隆大学公告栏上的一篇文章,其中一名学生开玩笑说物理系的电梯里发生了汞泄漏。 其他学生错过了笑话的背景,认为真的发生了泄漏。
这些 Smiley 表情逐渐在整个卡内基梅隆大学传播开来,后来传播到更广泛的互联网。

The Hacker's Dictionary
@BEGIN (primarily CMU) with @END, used humorously in writing to indicate a context or to remark on the surrounded text. From the SCRIBE command of the same name. For example: @Begin(Flame)Predicate logic is the only good programming language. Anyone who would use anything else is an idiot. Also, computers should be tredecimal instead of binary. @End(Flame) ANGLE BRACKETS (primarily MIT) n. Either of the characters " <" and " >". See BROKET. AOS (aus (East coast) ay-ahs (West coast)) [based on a PDP-10 increment instruction] v. To increase the amount of something. "Aos the campfire." Usage: considered silly. See SOS. ARG n. Abbreviation for "argument" (to a function), used so often as to have become a new word. AUTOMAGICALLY adv. Automatically, but in a way which, for some reason (typically because it is too complicated, or too ugly, or perhaps even too trivial), I don't feel like explaining to you. See MAGIC. Example: Some programs which produce XGP output files spool them automagically. BAGBITER
-
- n. Equipment or program that fails, usually intermittently.
-
- BAGBITING: adj. Failing hardware or software. "This bagbiting system won't let me get out of spacewar." Usage: verges on obscenity. Grammatically separable; one may speak of "biting the bag". Synonyms: LOSER, LOSING, CRETINOUS, BLETCHEROUS, BARFUCIOUS, CHOMPER, CHOMPING.
BANG n. Common alternate name for EXCL (q.v.), especially at CMU. See SHRIEK. BAR
-
- The second metasyntactic variable, after FOO. "Suppose we have two functions FOO and BAR. FOO calls BAR..."
-
- Often appended to FOO to produce FOOBAR.
BARF [from the "layman" slang, meaning "vomit"]
-
- interj. Term of disgust. See BLETCH.
-
- v. Choke, as on input. May mean to give an error message. "The function `=' compares two fixnums or two flonums, and barfs on anything else."
-
- BARFULOUS, BARFUCIOUS: adj. Said of something which would make anyone barf, if only for aesthetic reasons.
BELLS AND WHISTLES n. Unnecessary but useful (or amusing) features of a program. "Now that we've got the basic program working, let's go back and add some bells and whistles." Nobody seems to know what distinguishes a bell from a whistle. BIGNUMS [from Macsyma] n.
-
- In backgammon, large numbers on the dice.
-
- Multiple-precision (sometimes infinitely extendable) integers and, through analogy, any very large numbers.
-
- EL CAMINO BIGNUM: El Camino Real, a street through the San Francisco peninsula that originally extended (and still appears in places) all the way to Mexico City. It was termed "El Camino Double Precision" when someone noted it was a very long street, and then "El Camino Bignum" when it was pointed out that it was hundreds of miles long.
BIN [short for BINARY; used as a second file name on ITS]
-
- n. BINARY.
-
- BIN FILE: A file containing the BIN for a program. Usage: used at MIT, which runs on ITS. The equivalent term at Stanford is DMP (pronounced "dump") FILE. Other names used include SAV ("save") FILE (DEC and Tenex), SHR ("share") and LOW FILES (DEC), and EXE ("ex'ee") FILE (DEC and Twenex). Also in this category are the input files to the various flavors of linking loaders (LOADER, LINK-10, STINK), called REL FILES.
BINARY n. The object code for a program. BIT n.
-
- The unit of information; the amount of information obtained by asking a yes-or-no question. "Bits" is often used simply to mean information, as in "Give me bits about DPL replicators".
-
- [By extension from "interrupt bits" on a computer] A reminder that something should be done or talked about eventually. Upon seeing someone that you haven't talked to for a while, it's common for one or both to say, "I have a bit set for you."
BITBLT (bit'blit)
-
- v. To perform a complex operation on a large block of bits, usually involving the bits being displayed on a bitmapped raster screen. See BLT.
-
- n. The operation itself.
BIT BUCKET n.
-
- A receptacle used to hold the runoff from the computer's shift registers.
-
- Mythical destination of deleted files, GC'ed memory, and other no-longer-accessible data.
-
- The physical device associated with "NUL:".
BLETCH [from German "brechen" , to vomit (?)]
-
- interj. Term of disgust.
-
- BLETCHEROUS: adj. Disgusting in design or function. "This keyboard is bletcherous!" Usage: slightly comic.
BLT (blit, very rarely belt) [based on the PDP-10 block transfer instruction; confusing to users of the PDP-11]
-
- v. To transfer a large contiguous package of information from one place to another.
-
- THE BIG BLT: n. Shuffling operation on the PDP- 10 under some operating systems that consumes a significant amount of computer time.
-
- (usually pronounced B-L-T) n. Sandwich containing bacon, lettuce, and tomato.
BOGOSITY n. The degree to which something is BOGUS (q.v.). At CMU, bogosity is measured with a bogometer; typical use: in a seminar, when a speaker says something bogus, a listener might raise his hand and say, "My bogometer just triggered." The agreed-upon unit of bogosity is the microLenat (uL). BOGUS (WPI, Yale, Stanford) adj.
-
- Non-functional. "Your patches are bogus."
-
- Useless. "OPCON is a bogus program."
-
- False. "Your arguments are bogus."
-
- Incorrect. "That algorithm is bogus."
-
- Silly. "Stop writing those bogus sagas." (This word seems to have some, but not all, of the connotations of RANDOM.) [Etymological note from Lehman/Reid at CMU: "Bogus" was originally used (in this sense) at Princeton, in the late 60's. It was used not particularly in the CS department, but all over campus. It came to Yale, where one of us (Lehman) was an undergraduate, and (we assume) elsewhere through the efforts of Princeton alumni who brought the word with them from their alma mater. In the Yale case, the alumnus is Michael Shamos, who was a graduate student at Yale and is now a faculty member here. A glossary of bogus words was compiled at Yale when the word was first popularized (e.g., autobogophobia: the fear of becoming bogotified).]
BOUNCE (Stanford) v. To play volleyball. "Bounce, bounce! Stop wasting time on the computer and get out to the court!" **BRAIN-DAM
