Today I opened my "gwk" account. I am curious how this works. So far I'll be sitting on the fence for a while, but I sent a donation.

There had been two earlier scams associated with the term "Eurosky", but @eurosky.social seems to be safe.

I am hunting the Snark. My main hunting grounds are Henry Holiday's illustrations to Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark". The shortlink bm.snrk.de leads you to my most important finding.

From Lewis Carroll's 'The Hunting of the Snark', pages 4 and 5.
In the image (source: https://archive.org/details/huntingofsnarkag00carrrich/page/4/mode/2up), lines 009 (https://snrk.de/snarkhunt/#009) and 010 (https://snrk.de/snarkhunt/#009) are highlighted.

009  The crew was complete: it included a Boots —
010  A maker of Bonnets and Hoods —
011  A Barrister, brought to arrange their disputes —
012  And a Broker, to value their goods.

013  A Billiard-marker, whose skill was immense,
014  Might perhaps have won more than his share —
015  But a Banker, engaged at enormous expense,
016  Had the whole of their cash in his care.

017  There was also a Beaver, that paced on the deck,
018  Or would sit making lace in the bow:
019  And had often (the Bellman said) saved them from wreck,
020  Though none of the sailors knew how.

To you, was the "Boots" a "maker of Bonnets and Hoods" when you read (or listened to) Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark" as a child?

By the way, a maker of bonnets and hoods isn't necessarily a hatter, because bonnets and hoods aren't necessarily hats.

In the image below you can see a ventilation hood behind a sail. The sail could be a bonnet (an extension to the lower edge of an existing sail), which is connected to the bowsprit which (as Snark readers know) got mixed with the rudder sometimes. Once the ship has been snarked in that manner, the helmsman (this office was usually undertaken by the Boots) used to stand by with tears in his eyes; he knew it was all wrong, but alas!

In the image you also see the Beaver making lace in the bow. The bowsprit and the bonnet are positioned behind the animal. It seems that sometimes the maker of bonnets had to ferociously plan a novel arrangement of bows.

On 1st of April, 2026, "The Hunting of the Snark" celebrated the 150th anniversary of its official publishing by Macmillan.

Since 150 years most readers didn't notice that Lewis Carroll left it in the lines 9 and 10 of his Snark tragicomedy to the readers to decide whether there are 9 or 10 Snark hunters (https://snrk.de/?s=9.5). I chose 9. What is your choice?

Good that Trump didn't wait with his EO. That gives you more time.

«The human understanding, once it has adopted opinions, either because they were already accepted and believed, or because it likes them, draws everything else to support and agree with them. And though it may meet a greater number and weight of contrary instances, it will, with great and harmful prejudice, ignore or condemn or exclude them by introducing some distinction, in order that the authority of those earlier assumptions may remain intact and unharmed.»

The image on the lower right side is an allegorical English School painting (ca. 1610, by an unknown painter) of Queen Elizabeth I at old age together with the allegories of Death and of Father Time.

The upper left side is a depiction of the Bellman from Henry Holiday’s front cover illustration to Lewis Carroll’s The Hunting of the Snark (1876).

Henry Holiday probably alluded to the painting (depiction of Queen Elizabeth I at old age; unknown artist; ca. 1610; Location: Corsham Court, Wiltshire, UK) when he illustrated Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark".

Eine gemeinsame Linie mit diesen Wahnsinnigen finden zu wollen, wäre ja auch ziemlich unrealistisch, zumal, abseits von Gut und Böse, Trump, Hegseth und die anderen Mitglieder der US-Regierung einfach zu gefährlich inkompetent sind.

Celebrating the Snark's 150th anniversary with a Haskell truth checker: What I tell you three times is true!

https://www.reddit.com/r/LewisCarroll/comments/1s6u2ty/celebrating_the_snarks_150th_anniversary_with_a/

----

Today (March 29th, 2026) we can start to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Lewis Carroll and Henry Holiday's "The Hunting of the Snark". Carroll distributed first editions of his Snark tragicomedy to selected friends and family before the official publication date. Macmillan officially published the poem on April 1st, 1876, but Carroll prepared 80 presentation copies on March 29th, 1876, many of which he signed and gave away.

On occasion of the 150th anniversary of Carroll's long Snark poem and Holiday's Snark illustrations, I now provide you with a tool for which our snarked world has been waiting since the big bang (or even earlier). The tool checks assertions in a table of assertionsbased on the Bellman's rule: "What I tell you three times is true!". The function atLeastThrice yields all assertions which it can find at least three times in the assertions table.

The function uses a fact checking algorithm which also is used by the most powerful leaders of the world.

The function makes fact checking great again.
The function makes fact checking great again.
The function makes fact checking great again.

Here is my implementation of "What I tell you three times is true" in Haskell:

    atLeastThrice :: [String] -> [String]
    atLeastThrice assertions =
      [head grp | grp <-
        group $ sort assertions, length grp >= 3]

ChatGPT's explanation of atLeastThrice: "Thank you for providing the implementation in Haskell. Yes, your implementation looks correct. The "group" function groups the same elements in the list together, then you are filtering out the groups that have less than three elements, and finally returning the head of each group (which is the repeated assertion)."
