Sodium dihydrogen arsenate Sodium dihydrogen arsenate Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is the inorganic compound with the formula NaHAsO. Related salts are also called sodium arsenate, including NaHAsO (disodium hydrogen arsenate) and NaHAsO (sodium dihydrogen arsenate). Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is a colorless solid that is highly toxic. The salt is the conjugate base of arsenic acid: In the laboratory, it is prepared in this way, crystallizing from a hot saturated aqueous solution, where it is highly soluble when hot (75.3 g in 100 mL at 100 °C). It is obtained as the monohydrate. Upon heating, solid NaHAsOHO, loses water of crystallization and converts to the
Worse is better third will be improved to a point that is almost the right thing. In concrete terms, even though Lisp compilers in 1987 were about as good as C compilers, there are many more compiler experts who want to make C compilers better than want to make Lisp compilers better." Gabriel credits Jamie Zawinski for excerpting the worse-is-better sections of "Lisp: Good News, Bad News, How to Win Big" and e-mailing them to his friends at Carnegie Mellon University, who sent them to their friends at Bell Labs, "who sent them to their friends everywhere". He apparently connected these ideas to
