On my research list: [WayBack] Passive Spam Block List:
PSBL is an easy-on, easy-off blacklist that does not rely on testing and should reduce false positives because any user can remove their ISP’s mail server from the list.
The idea is that 99% of the hosts that send me spam never send me legitimate email, but that people whose mail server was used by spammers should still be able to send me email.
This results in a simple listing policy: an IP address gets added to the PSBL when it sends email to a spamtrap, that email is not identified as non-spam and the IP address is not a known mail server.

aha is great to generate HTML from ANSI text (i.e. the coloured output on a Linux console).
But it doesn’t generate clickable URIs (it can’t yet by itself as it only looks one character in the future).
The thread at https://github.com/theZiz/aha/issues/20 suggested a case-insensitive regex through sed but the exact suggestion failed for a few reasons I will explain below.
First the bash alias (requires both aha and perl):

Ah, C. The best lingua franca we have… because we have no other lingua francas. Linguae franca. Surgeons general? C is fairly old — 44 years, now! — and comes from a time when there were possibly more architectures than programming languages. It works well for what it is, and what it is is a relatively simple layer of indirection atop assembly. Alas, the popularity of C has led to a number of programming languages’ taking significant cues from its design, and parts of its design are… slightly questionable. I’ve gone through some common features that probably should’ve stayed in C and my justification for saying so. The features are listed in rough order from (I hope) least to most controversial. The idea is that C fans will give up when I call it “weakly typed” and not even get to the part where I rag on braces. Wait, crap, I gave it away.

Via [WayBack] Graph of programming languages influence poster – nice gift idea for programmers… – This is why I Code – Google+:
A network graph with more than a thousand programming languages connected by influence relations. Highly influential languages like Lisp, Smalltalk, C, Java, Pascal, C++, Haskel or Python are shown as larger circles as compared to languages with little influence on others like PHP or Argh!. / The influence relation data was retrieved from Freebase in 2013. This design available on posters and other products. An awesome gift for programmers who are into digital art. • Also buy this artwork on wall prints, apparel, kids clothes, and more.

I wonder how they drew the relations and why certain languages are in certain places.
