I love it. Why does it bring such warm and fuzzy feelings? The result of my lucky feeling search brought up a wikipedia page. It was such a let down.

As an online education teacher, I have noticed that classes with different age groups perform better. I have no way of influencing this outcome however.

I think I'll wait for the 2nd edition of the book before taking the class.

The diary for Emacs is all I need.

Do you know if you'll need the 3rd edition of AIMA for the class? I have the 2nd edition and I would rather not buy the book again.

It's about time. That do remind me of Philip K. Dick's novel where the President is replaced by a computer program, tho!

I like it but shouldn't it do similarity instead of producing a unique bot? For example, "similar" strings should produce similar bots.

I agree. We need to see more of that. I would suggest to offer a few trips a year to the "office" though for morale.

Yes, I remember it well. It's next to the Pantheon. I remember getting those ancient, priceless books that couldn't be found anywhere else.

What is the name of the software for the electronic blackboard used in Khan's videos?

Chucks, it has been cancelled due to the snow here. Sorry about that ...

Exactly what I feel. I miss the integrated debugger and trace facilities the most. You can see exactly what your code is doing in lisp. What happened 10 years ago was the dot.com craze and the demand for Java programmers went through the roof. I am now trying to get back into Lisp maybe through Clojure too.

Facebook is the AOL of today. It just make it easy for non-computer literate people to communicate without learning how to send and receive email.

Yes, I'm reading that too. Next, I'll read The Forever Peace.

That happened to me with my blog when they removed the ftp feature. I didn't want to convert automatically to a blogspot blog because I didn't have to time to deal with the privacy issues. Fortunately, I was able to download the data and I still have a web page for it that I could parse to convert it to another format but in the meantime I'm without blog.

I still haven't decided to which format to convert my blog but I'm very tempted to convert it to an emacs org-mode format and then decide later.

You're only telling us general trivia. If you've done a wordpress theme, post a tutorial or a how-to.

I had "Mathematical statistics" by Freund and Walpole and still refers to it. Also Drake's Applied Probability theory is a classic.

Let's not forget Lisp OSes like Genera or Xerox's. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.

No. Why is over-the-air broadcast is obsolete? What a piece of sheet article that makes unjustified assumptions. I'm using over-the-air broadcast and I intend to keep it this way. Finally, a piece of technology that benefits everyone, and especially those who cannot afford the cable fees.

It's posts just like this one that nibble at my limited attention resource.

Fairness is an abstraction, just like circles and triangles are abstractions. They are no less real. We can always aspire to fairness to guide our lives just like mathematics is used to explain the physical world.

The cats will certainly run for their lives, just like when I pull out the vacuum cleaner. I'm sure they will adapt and it's better not to be associated with the mean thing. However, does it do fringes? I heard that the Roomba does not and the oriental carpets have fringes.

I would argue that learning can be reduced to statistical inference.

This post is sexist. I wish this constant stereotyping would stop.
