On May 6, 1949, EDSAC performed its first calculation. One of the first machines that were practical to use in real world problems such as solving differential equations relating to gene frequencies.

Crunching numbers at a speed of 714 operations per second, this machine was one of the machines of firsts. One of the computers large enough for real world problems and the computer that established subroutines, a library of stored programs such as floating point arithmetic.

EDSAC stands as an important stepping stone for the use of computers in practical settings, even helping researchers achieve Nobel Peace Prizes through the help of its computing power.

May we present this week's Today in Computer Science History:

Before that, we acknowledge the huge contributions made by computers in today's society. However, what were the first impacts of this technology in its early years?

May 1, 2026 marks the Philippines' 124 Labor Day Commemoration. A holiday built around the worker's struggle for fair and humane work.

Starting as the Filipino working class' protest against unfair and exploitative working conditions under the Americans, it has grown to be a day sacred not only to Filipino workers but also a day of international solidarity. Labor day provides us ordinary citizens an avenue to air out our anger and frustrations against the systems that only seek to exploit us.

The fight for a society that treats its working class fairly is a fight that is relevent now more than ever. So, this Labor Day, let us fight for the rights we have and the rights that we deserve. ๐Ÿ’ช

The UP Association of Computer Science Majors strongly condemns the killing of Alyssa Alano โ€” student leader, Iskolar ng Bayan, and member of the UP Diliman University Student Council โ€” whose life was taken on April 19 in Negros Occidental. Her death is not an isolated incident, but part of a continuing pattern of violence against those who choose to serve marginalized communities.

Alyssa dedicated her work to advancing the rights and welfare of students and the broader Filipino people. Beyond the university, she stood in solidarity with farmers and community-based sectors, immersing herself in communities and responding to the call for genuine service. For this, she was met not with protection, but with suspicion, vilification, and ultimately, violence.

We are reminded of the fate of our alumnus, Chad Booc, who likewise chose to serve the Lumad communities through education and community-based work, and whose life was also taken under circumstances that raised serious questions of justice and accountability. The parallel is deeply alarming: those who dedicate themselves to the most underserved sectors continue to face the gravest risks.

We reject the dangerous narrative that reduces individuals to labels to justify harm against them. Red-tagging, baseless accusations, and the weaponization of misinformation create conditions where lives are treated as expendable. No student, no educator, no advocate deserves to be killed for choosing to serve the people.

The circumstances surrounding Alyssaโ€™s death demand an immediate, transparent, and independent investigation. Accountability must not be delayed, diluted, or denied. Justice requires more than statements. It requires concrete action to ensure that those responsible are held to account and that such violence does not continue with impunity.

Her killing exposes a broader reality: that civic engagement, dissent, and community service remain perilous in a society where power is too often exercised without consequence. This must end.

As members of the academic community, we affirm that activism is not a crime, that dissent is not terrorism, and that service to the people must never be met with violence. We call on our fellow students, educators, and citizens to stand firm in defending human rights, to challenge narratives that enable injustice, and to refuse silence in the face of abuse.

We mourn with anger. We grieve with purpose. And we stand in unwavering solidarity with those who continue the struggle for justice.



STATEMENT

Noong Abril 19, walang habas na pinaulanan ng bala ng 79th Infantry Batallion ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) ang Barangay Salamanca, Toboso, Negros Occidental kung saan halos 168 na pamilya at 653 na mga indibidwal ang napilitang magbakwit sa kanilang mga tahanan.

Kaugnay nito, ibinabalita ng UP Diliman University Student Council na isa sa mga nasawi ang ating kapwa Iskolar ng Bayan na si USC Councilor Alyssa Alano dahil sa pasistang atake at panunupil ng militar sa Negros.

Mariing kinukundena ng UP Diliman USC ang ginawang pagpatay ng AFP kay Alyssa na isang inosenteng sibilyan.

Lubos ding tinututulan ng UP Diliman USC ang karumaldumal at paulit-ulit na paglabag ng reaksyunaryong gobyerno at ng kanilang mga mersenaryo sa karapatang pantao ng mamamayan ng Negros at maging sa mga aktibistang sumasandig sa laban ng masang api.

Sa kasalukuyan, si Councilor Alano ang Education and Research Councilor ng USC UP Diliman.

Nakipamuhay at nakipag-aralan si Alyssa sa hanay ng mga kapatid nating magsasaka mula sa Negros upang alamin ang kanilang tunay na kalagayan sa harap ng pangangamkam sa lupa, pagsasamantala, at militarisasyon.

Nananatili ang Negros bilang isa sa mga rehiyong may pinakamatinding militarisasyon at paglabag ng karapatang pantao. Pinaigting ng Memorandum Order 32, na naglagay sa Negros sa โ€œState of Lawless Violenceโ€, ang pagtaas ng presensya at operasyong militar sa rehiyon.

Walang habas ang mga mersenaryo sa pangangamkam ng lupa at pananamantala. Tumitindi ang pandarahas, pandadakip, at pagpatay ng mga magsasakang Negrense.

Nakita at naintindihan ni Councilor Alano ang kahalagahan sa paggamit ng kaniyang talino at lakas upang ipaglaban ang mga karapatan ng mga estudyante at batayang sektor, lalo sa pagtindi ng krisis sa ekonomiya.

Si Alyssa ay naging isang mahusay, masikhay, mapagmahal, at dakilang lider-estudyante at tunay na anak ng bayan.

Nagluluksa ang konseho at buong komunidad ng UP sa pagkawala ni Alyssa. Mahigpit ding nakikiramay ang konseho sa kanyang mga naiwang pamilya, kaibigan, at mahal sa buhay.

Buong tapang at buong pusong tinanggap ni Alyssa ang hamon sa bawat Iskolar ng Bayanโ€“ang paglingkuran ang sambayanan. Hinding-hindi natin siya malilimutan.

Nalulungkot ang buong konseho sa pangyayari, ngunit higit dito, pinipili ng UP Diliman USC na buong tapang at buong tatag na ipagpatuloy ang laban para sa hustisyang panlipunan at katarungan para sa lahat ng biktima ng pasismo ng kasalukuyang nabubulok na estado.

Hanggaโ€™t hindi nabibigyan ng solusyon ang ugat ng kahirapan, marami pa ang katulad ni Alyssa na handang pag-aralan ang lipunan at magiging handang ipaglaban ang isang lipunang malaya sa pagsasamantala. Hinding-hindi mapuputol ang diwa ni Alano sa malawak na hanay ng mga Iskolar ng Bayan na pahihigpitin pa lalo ang pagkakaisa para tuluyang magapi ang isang sistema ng lipunang mapang-api at mapagsamantala.

Iskolar ng Bayan, ipagpatuloy natin ang militanteng diwa ni Alyssa Alano!

Tumindig tayo, kasama ang bawat Iskolar ng Bayan, komunidad ng UP, at mamamayang Pilipino para sa tunay na kalayaan, katarungan, at hustisyang panlipunan!

Sumandig tayo sa laban ng mga magsasaka at lahat ng masang-api! Palakasin natin ang boses at pwersang yayanig sa sistemang mapang-api!

Alyssa, ang iyong buhay ay mananatiling isang maningning at matalas na tanglaw para sa bawat Iskolar ng Bayan, na patuloy na mangahas na makibaka at paglingkuran ang sambayanan!

Hustisya para kay Alyssa Alano!
Uphold International Humanitarian Law!
Militar sa Kanayunan, Palayasin!
Inutang na Dugo ng Pasistang Rehimen, Singilin, Singilin, Pagbayarin!

Today is Black Saturday, the end of Holy Week.

Also referred to as Holy Saturday, it marks the day that Christ was laid to rest, today is an interlude between His death and resurrection where we reflect on the love He showed for us through His suffering on the cross.

Let us sit with this holy silence; mourning, waiting, and trusting in the promise of what is yet to come tomorrow.

Happy Maundy Thursday! Today, we commemorate the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples.

The word โ€œmaundyโ€ is derived from the Latin โ€œmandatum,โ€ referring to Jesusโ€™ mandate to his disciples to love one another as he loved them.

As we reflect on this day, may we strive to embody Jesus' spirit of service and selflessness in our own lives. Let us remember the humility and love Jesus demonstrated as he washed his disciplesโ€™ feet. Wishing you a meaningful and peaceful Holy Week! ๐Ÿท๐Ÿž
