Before experimenting with magnetic cores for transient storage, #JayForrester was casting around for other potential electronic devices which might function as fast memory for the real-time #Whirlwind #Computer. The team had discounted mercury delay lines and magnetic drum memory, with their serial access, as too slow for Whirlwind. The team was working on their own implementation of Williams tubes, but these were endlessly problematic and not as fast in practice as theory indicated.
In 1947 Forrester even had briefly considered using interconnected "gas glow discharge cells" in three-dimensional array, for these offered such advantages, at least theoretically, as "high initial breakdown voltage," "...low holding voltage, and low forward impedence [sic] after breakdown..." But investigations were "soon dropped because of the variability of the individual cells with time and from sample to sample."
From the 1967 manuscript "PROJECT WHIRLWIND: A Case History in Contemporary Technology" by Kent C. Redmond and Thomas M. Smith available at http://bitsavers.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pdf/mit/whirlwind/history/Redmond_Project_Whirlwind_A_Case_History_In_Contemporary_Technology_1975.pdf published in 1975 by The MITRE Corporation and republished in 1980 by Digital Press (yes, that Digital) in a gorgeous hardback edition with superbly reproduced black and white photos.
There's little technical information about the development of the computer in the book; instead, the book is about the institutional, systemic and political pressures that gave Project Whirlwind the complexion that it had.

Tracing back #programming language history to the root of the very first (mnemonic) #GOTO instruction (jump/branch) I found two different sources:
1. In 1954 Nathanael Rochester developed the "first" mnemonic #assembler for the #IBM 701 #mainframe computer that uses "TR" jump commands: https://shrtn.escalar.pt/ZuE5
2. In 1947 the "manual" for the #Whirlwind computer contained the "sp x" mnemonic: https://shrtn.escalar.pt/FdYC
So, which one was actually the "first" to use mnemonics for branching?

#VicePresident #KamalaHarris’ sudden #political #rise echoes that of another #female #politician, #NewZealand’s #JacindaArdern
Ardern’s #whirlwind #campaign and #tenure also shows some #pitfalls other #Female #leaders, like Harris, might face, including being compelled to appear as #competent and #likable while fending off #hateful #attacks.

TODAY! #Supai, #Ute, #Dine', #Lakota Testify on #Uranium #Exploitation before Inter-American Commission on #HumanRights
by Brenda Norrell, #CensoredNews
February 28, 2024WASHINGTON -- "The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights will hear testimony from Navajo, Ute, and #Oglala Lakota, on the impacts on #IndigenousPeoples' human rights from uranium exploitation in Washington on Feb. 28, 2024.
"'#NahasdzáánShimá — #MotherEarth—provides everything we need to keep us alive—the four things we Navajos talk about —air, water, soil, and light—and it is our home,' said #EdithHood, President, of #RedWaterPondRoadCommunityAssociation.
"'We have been living with this silent killer without knowing the dangers. Once the #mining started, after the drilling, we didn’t realize we were being contaminated.'
"'When we were children playing and herding sheep we didn’t understand we were being exposed to dangerous #radiation,' Hood said.
Hood thanked the commission for the hearing and added, "Our own #Tribalgovernment doesn’t listen to us.'"The #InterAmericanCommission on Human Rights agreed to hold a thematic hearing on how U.S. uranium exploitation policies have resulted in human rights abuses in Indigenous communities across the country. This coincides with an upsurge in #UraniumMining, said the #NewMexico #EnvironmentalLawCenter.
"'As the United States doubles down on the misguided notion that #NuclearPower is a solution to the #ClimateCrisis, the uranium development industry is beginning to benefit from generous #taxpayer giveaways to the nuclear industry as a whole.'
"'Subsidies from the #Biden administration have spurred uranium mining production to restart in at least 3 mines in the last few months, in #Utah, #Wyoming, and in Arizona near the #GrandCanyon. As has been the case since the dawn of the #AtomicAge, the impacts of uranium mining are largely left out of the debate over nuclear power.'
"#EnergyFuels said it is increasing U.S. uranium production as prices reach a 16-year high. Energy Fuels said in December that it is ramping up uranium production at three mines #PinyonPlain in in the Grand Canyon, and #LaSal and #Pandora uranium mines in southeastern #Utah.
"Ore mined from the three mines during 2024 will be stockpiled at the Energy Fuels #WhiteMesaMill in Utah for processing in 2025. It is also preparing two mines, #Whirlwind in southeastern Utah, and #NicholsRanch in central Wyoming, to begin uranium production within one year, Energy Fuels said.
"Pinyon Plain began uranium mining and is now threatening the water of the #Havasupai in their homeland in the Grand Canyon. The mine is now endangering Navajo, #Hopi, Ute, and southwest residents, on the uranium haul route, from the Grand Canyon to the Energy Fuels mill in southeastern Utah.
"The White Mesa Mill is poisoning the water, land, and air of White Mesa Utes in southeastern Utah. It is now bringing in #radioactive waste from Europe. Nuclear waste at the site was transported here from the Nuclear Test Site in Nevada because it was too deadly to leave there. The Nevada site poisoned the ancestral land of #WesternShoshone."

"'Subsidies from the #Biden administration have spurred uranium mining production to restart in at least 3 mines in the last few months, in #Utah, #Wyoming, and in Arizona near the #GrandCanyon. As has been the case since the dawn of the #AtomicAge, the impacts of uranium mining are largely left out of the debate over nuclear power.'
"#EnergyFuels said it is increasing U.S. uranium production as prices reach a 16-year high. Energy Fuels said in December that it is ramping up uranium production at three mines #PinyonPlain in in the Grand Canyon, and #LaSal and #Pandora uranium mines in southeastern #Utah.
"Ore mined from the three mines during 2024 will be stockpiled at the Energy Fuels #WhiteMesaMill in Utah for processing in 2025. It is also preparing two mines, #Whirlwind in southeastern Utah, and #NicholsRanch in central Wyoming, to begin uranium production within one year, Energy Fuels said.
"Pinyon Plain began uranium mining and is now threatening the water of the #Havasupai in their homeland in the Grand Canyon. The mine is now endangering Navajo, #Hopi, Ute, and southwest residents, on the uranium haul route, from the Grand Canyon to the Energy Fuels mill in southeastern Utah.
"The White Mesa Mill is poisoning the water, land, and air of White Mesa Utes in southeastern Utah. It is now bringing in #radioactive waste from Europe. Nuclear waste at the site was transported here from the Nuclear Test Site in Nevada because it was too deadly to leave there. The Nevada site poisoned the ancestral land of #WesternShoshone."

TIL: Ken Olsen was one of the junior engineers in the Whirlwind programme. He later founded Digital Equipment Corporation, maybe better known as DEC. #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #vcfb #vcfb23 #whirlwind #vcfb2023

We #close the door to the #whirlwind of the world, to exchange views over tea and scones, grasping for this space that is ours, and ours alone. After the #sun sets, we look at a now #clear sky, #replete with #stars.
