In philosophy, desire has been identified as a philosophical problem since Antiquity. In Plato's The Republic, Socrates argues that individual desires must be postponed in the name of the higher ideal.
Within the teachings of Buddhism, craving is thought to be the cause of all suffering. By eliminating craving, a person can attain ultimate happiness, or Nirvana. While on the path to liberation, a practitioner is advised to "generate desire" for skillful ends.
History
Ancient Greece
In Aristotle's De Anima the soul is seen to be involved in motion, because animals desire things and in their desire, they acquire locomotion. Aristotle argued that desire is implicated in animal interactions and the propensity of animals to motion. But Aristotle acknowledges that desire cannot account for all purposive movement towards a goal. He brackets the problem by positing that perhaps reason, in conjunction with desire and by way of the imagination, makes it possible for one to apprehend an object of desire, to see it as desirable. In this way reason and desire work together to determine what is a good object of desire. This resonates with desire in the chariots of Plato's Phaedrus, for in the Phaedrus the soul is guided by two horses, a dark horse of passion and a white horse of reason. Here passion and reason, as in Aristotle, are also together. Socrates does not suggest the dark horse be done away with, since its passions make possible a movement towards the objects of desire, but he qualifies desire and places it in a relation to reason so that the object of desire can be discerned correctly, so that we may have the right desire. Aristotle distinguishes desire into appetition and volition.
Désiré (29 December 1823 – September 1873) was a French baritone, who is particularly remembered for creating many comic roles in the works of the French operetta composer Jacques Offenbach. Désiré was a stage name; the artist's real name was Amable Courtecuisse, but for most of his life he was generally known as Désiré.
Life and career
He was born in Lille, or a nearby village, and studied bassoon, singing, and declamation at the Lille Conservatory. His first appearances were at small theatres in Belgium and northern France beginning in 1845.
In 1847, he arrived at the Théâtre Montmartre in Paris where he met Hervé. He asked Hervé to provide him with a musical sketch (drawn from Cervantes' novel Don Quixote), in which the tall and thin Hervé as the Don was pitted against the short and plump Désiré as Sancho Pança. The sketch inspired what was later dubbed the first French operetta, Hervé's Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança, which premiered in 1848 at Adolphe Adam's Théâtre National at the Cirque Olympique, but with Joseph Kelm, instead of Désiré, as Sancho Pança.
Lambda (stylized λ /lambda/) is an award winning Greek luxury olive oil brand, produced by Speiron company, founded in 2007 by Greek entrepreneur Giorgos Kolliopoulos. It has been called the first luxury olive oil in the world. Its brand name originates from the Greek word λάδι (ladi) which means oil in Greek.
Description
Lambda has been noted for its stylized packaging. Its marketing is targeted at affluent consumers. It is sold online, in Singapore, Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and UK department store Harrod's.
Specifications: Cold extraction, Koroneiki variety, entirely bottled by hand
In October 2010, the company announced the launch of the Bespoke Lambda, which is the first personalized olive oil in the world, being also the most expensive globally.
In December 2014, λ /lambda/ olive oil was included in the most expensive Christmas hamper that broke the Guinness World Record for a hamper.
In computer programming, an anonymous function (also function literal or lambda abstraction) is a function definition that is not bound to an identifier. Anonymous functions are often:
used for constructing the result of a higher-order function that needs to return a function.
If the function is only used once, or a limited number of times, an anonymous function may be syntactically lighter than using a named function. Anonymous functions are ubiquitous in functional programming languages and other languages with first-class functions, where they fulfill the same role for the function type as literals do for other data types.
Anonymous functions originate in the work of Alonzo Church in his invention of the lambda calculus in 1936 (prior to electronic computers), in which all functions are anonymous. In several programming languages, anonymous functions are introduced using the keyword lambda, and anonymous functions are often referred to as lambdas or lambda abstractions. Anonymous functions have been a feature of programming languages since Lisp in 1958 and an increasing number of modern programming languages support anonymous functions.
The Lambda 8300 was a Sinclair ZX81 clone from Lambda Electronics Limited of Hong Kong. It was not an exact clone as it had a modified ZX81 ROM, but could be fitted with a ZX81 compatible ROM. It came with 2K RAM (expandable to 16 or 32 K), and a sound and joystick port. Specifically, it used a Z80A at 3.25MHz. It was identical to the DEF 3000, PC 2000, Marathon 32K, IQ 8300, PC 8300, Power 3000, Unisonic 8300, Futura 8300, Basic 2000 and Basic 3000.
Unisonic distributed it as the Futura 8300 in the US. The computer was somewhat successful in Europe, and today enthusiasts still develop new hardware.

Release Date: 03.05.2019
The dramaturgy of “Sirius”, the opening track of Frankey & Sandrino’s first Diynamic EP, puts you right into the strain of mission control, mere moments before the launch. One by one, the different protocols are being engaged, the fumes of the carbon cooling system slowly haze around the jet propulsion engines, as the shuttle begins its slow and uncertain ascend.
“Initiating sequence.”
Then, “Lambda”. A telescope looking into the exuberant night sky. Shifting focus. Tracing shiny objects, slow bleeps and rapid sweeps on the near-black canvas. No possibility and no desire of ever seeing everything at once. A collage of details, collectively creating one big picture.

HOPE X (2014): Keeping Old Code Alive: The Venerable LambdaMOO Server in 2014
Sunday, July 20, 2014: 10:00 am (Olson): The LambdaMOO server, the application server that still powers the LambdaMOO online community and that was the engine for hundreds of other text-based virtual worlds (MUDs), was first released over 20 years ago, in 1991. MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons) were the first networked virtual worlds; and they were popular long before Second Life, Word of Warcraft, and MMORPGs in general made their appearance. Even though much of the code in the current LambdaMOO server is unchanged from the early 90s, people today still download the code, compile it, and build little worlds with it. Motivated by a desire to build simple little immersive experiments that users could interact with and extend via programming, but frustrated by LambdaMOO's lack of features as well a...

Most modern languages treat functions as first-class citizens, and Modern C++ is no different. The introduction of lambda expressions and utilities such as `std::function` enable countless functional programming patterns that can increase the flexibility and safety of APIs, and help reduce code repetition on the implementation side.
In this talk we're going to see examples of how higher-order functions can be used in practice to increase the quality of production code and the productivity of developers. A new abstraction proposed to the Standard Library for C++20, `function_ref`, will also be covered and compared to other techniques for the im...

Motivated by a desire to build simple little immersive experiments that users could interact with and extend via programming, but frustrated by LambdaMOO's lack of features as well as source code that was several decades away from modern best practices, Todd Sundsted spent the last four years modernizing the server, and building applications and a library of application building blocks. The result is a fork of the codebase called Stunt that speaks HTTP (instead of telnet), includes up-to-date cryptographic primitives, and sports language enhancements like multiple inheritance and garbage-collected, anonymous objects. On top of this platform, he built a simple, modern MVC web framework. In the process, he learned quite a bit about maintaining, evolving, and extending old code, and about interacting with a small but passionate community of longtime users! Sharing these learnings, rather than talking about the specific technical details, is the purpose of the presentation.

Socrates does not suggest the dark horse be done away with, since its passions make possible a movement towards the objects of desire, but he qualifies desire and places it in a relation to reason so that the object of desire can be discerned correctly, so that we may have the right desire. Aristotle distinguishes desire into appetition and volition.
