It was a case of easy and fact come, easy and fast go.
Losers of that gamble also made the news. Worldcom, Enron and the likes.
Such an influx of finances into empty product/service ideas will NOT happen again.
Artificial Intelligence at best is what each word is defined in the dictionary, then put together. Simply put, NOT REAL, an imitation!
And that is exactly what artificial Intelligence is, an imitation we create, a part here, a part there. And of course it can be said that its an image of ourselves as we are the programmers, and the machine is in essence made out of what is in essence stone material of various types (not biological material.)
The deception is in the hiding of the fact that its such an imitation of ourselves, artificial. The deception that its something more then we are. And it is this where the danger comes in. But it is like the building of the tower of babel, it won't work, it will fall. The reason is simple, we have yet to recognize correctly and apply such recognition on a wide scale what this tool we call a computer really is.
It is an abstraction machine upon which we apply abstraction physics.
With the correct understanding we don't face such danger of misunderstanding or deceptions that the machine is more then we are. As such there won't be any hype or unjustified claims.
Artificial intelligence is the by product of automating enought that the sum generated the appearance of human character in the reflection of its program processing.
We are really much simpler than what most people want to believe. Kinda like the Human genome being found to not be any where near what level of complexity we thought or wanted to think we were.
Lets see now...Embrase linux and extend by claiming what they embrase has somehow become theirs?
Then there is teh halloween documents....and all the other bad things they have said about linux. So Microsoft was really just talking about themselves?
All in all, I think Microsoft is extenguishing themselves... They are imploding due to their exposure of their hypocracy.
And this is such a late comment nobody will see it.
No matter... I think deep down everyone already knows it, even Balmer and Bill.
When teh roman numeral system was being used for accounting it was an elite position to be an accountant, having social status, higher pay, etc..
Then in time we began using the hindu-arabic decimal system that allowed the common man to do math beyond with the former elite accounts could do. Today we use calculators in common everyday use.
And so it shall be with programming. The common man will do it as they find need to.
Free Software is just a step in that direction.
For programming is the act of simplifying an interface to complexity for the purpose of easier and faster use and reuse. Ultimately programming will become common place, as math is today.
Seems to me that if this is going to be something you can get in trouble for, and those with open networks can get in trouble for being open..... well it's all about using bandwidth right?
Somehow all the spam I get in email is worse, as its not just stealing bandwidth I'm responsible for paying the bill on but it waste my time in having to deal with its, be it by clicking on a spam fliter button of picking out what a spam filter doesn't catch.
Sooooo, since I have to deal with spam, I don't think accessing an open network, or making one available to others is wrong. In fact I think we should all have free wifi, paid for by spammers.
That's right, a contest or better yet a ul/dl your customized search engine interface to google engines? You know, like firefox has skins and other goodies the users create and share. So how about an easy to use skin development package to the google APIs?
I like the idea of seeing samples of other searches, like images and groups though I might be doing a search on web.
I know google is about advertising for their income so somehow thats gonna need to happen.
Didn't cloudware happen the first time during the 1990's and called "dot com" boom?
Genuine core knowledge will always, by its very nature, be very less demanding on storage space than the hype and bable of what most knowlegde published requires.
ultimately the hype and babel will manifest a bottomless pit as we can see from spam experience.
Hmmm, now where is that key and lock for that pit?
People don't do things for no reason at all. They have a reason, even if its made up or wrongly borrowed. But there is no organization of terrorist or any other type that can build such a suicidal distructive following without some real base line to use as a enlistment and motivational sales tool.
9/11 happened for real reasons, even if borrowed by lunitic extreamist. Winners of the Trillion dollar bet shared with the dot com and cause a boom. Losers of the bet have been named in teh media such as Worldcom, enron, etc..
You don't fight terrorism to defeat it by giving it more excuses. You defeat it by removing its excuses so to let it expose itself to any potential enlistments so to NOT be able to sale. To give terrorism more excuses is to support it, perhaps creating an excuse for yourself to commit wrong.
Thou shall not kill.....is supposed to be a christian belief, and Bush is suppose to be a Christian.... yeh right....
Does he have his passport to heaven paper work to prove it?
Where is the court room to put on trial those who injured the economy of south east asia and the reset of the world stockmarket playing world?
Osama is on trial under the name of Sadam......or is that another borrowed excuse?
..Then it seems the calculator simply needs to be made easier to use so the typical user can use it to generate programs as they need or are inspired to. Like numerical calculators are used today.
Is such a thing possible?
absolutely... its called abstraction physics.
Numbers and math are a subset or symptom of the application of abstraction physics.
...when I'm irratated at work, even silence can be distracting.
And there are those who have just the right irratating, cutting thru anything (even head phones blasting) voice sound, change in volume, starts to say something five different ways before they stumble it out, etc..that you just have to know ain't nobody going to custom create sounds to drown these unique voices out.
But this is not a scam as I'm sure it is capable of smoothing over common chatter. I think what helps me to believe this is that I saw some short clip on TV about movie sound effects. Ever notice that background murmer of people talking in a scene where there are lots of people but you really only hear the actors in focus? This is only one example, but there is at least one company that does nothing but deal with teh talent that is hired for these background effects.
My reasoning is that if you can create such chatter that is not so distracting, you probably have a good idea as to what is distracting and that should make for a good start at address the problem,
Now if you check out the site, you'll see they are far from being new to the sound industry.
It may not work as well as you like against those uniquly distracting voices but for alot of offices it probably would help.
As to mind focusing sounds, this is also been researched. I myself sometimes listed to Yani to help life my mental state and I read something where during the playing of some mathmatically/logically correct classical piece (bach or batoveen sp?) it is difficult to lie.
I suppose the trick is to take the distracting noice and add such pleasing noise to the mmix that blends the distraction into the acceptable.
I've noticed some music works better than other at drowning out specific office noise.
Someone saw me with head phones on and ask: Rocking Out? I said: No! Drowning out....
I'll probably never make a major computer purchase again, thanks to the apartment complex dumpster and the dwellers that know that if something still has value, set it off to the side of the dumpster. If no one grabs it in a day of two, then maintaince will dump it in.
My last find (off to the side of the dumpster - I don't dive) was two working compaq 600Mhz desktops with 10 gig hard drives and 128 and 256 megs ram (one I put ubuntu on, the other has windows 98 I think). And now my fastest machine--- one 933Mhz intel board based offbrand that has a scsi interface w/18 gig hard-drive and a matrox millinium graphics boad and 512Megs of ram. Loaded with Windows XP. I decided to spend $42 on a sony dvd DL R/W drive for it. And that is about as major as my hardware purchases get now a days.
Auto junk yards?? Computer Junk houses/shops are also a place to check out though I haven't found a need to vist one in years, perhaps they will come back into public view.
On the manufacture side, seems they would have a motive to take back old stuff rather then let the public do what I do.... not make as many major computer purchases any more.
Alot of this older hardware is still plenty good but perhaps just needing a smaller faster os like AROS http://www.aros.org/ to up its performanc.
I did also recently spend $15 on a monitor adaptor so I could check out 5 of the 6 MAC PPCs I've saved from dumpster death. They all work fine, just can't run OSX on them, but Apple makes everything up to OS8.1 freely available via their web site.
OS software is not an issue, as there is plenty of free one.
Also there are organizations that recycle systems so to provide non-profit groups, hanicaped, etc. with free computers. Check your local area if you are going to toss something tha still works. especially dialup modems if you upgrade to dsl or such. As working dialup modems are small and easy to toss but needed by these recyclers.
Of course there is the stuff that is broken and not gutable and who better then such recycle shops and computer junk houses to sort it out. They should receive some credit for this task, perhaps buy either or both, the manufacture and government.

that they were forced to hand over the information.
Think about it. what sort of distorted view does the government have of the people it is suppose to represent.
Music not the media it is on. As such I should be able to transfer the music to any media that allows me to listen to it.
IS that to hard to understand?

I hope Novell keeps a condom on its Linux development with MS.
....consumer choice becomes illegal.
For that is what teh GPL is alll about.... comsumer choice, be the consumer a developer or an end user
Simply because they are not an official source of information
And such attacks should continue until they put up a disclaimer regarding the information made available thru wikipedia as not being official.
due to massive code reuse we now suffer from the "mindrot" disease that disables us from re-inventing anything, even after we have long forgotten it.

you can bunt too.
a maliciously place car can kill someone, too. So maybe we should remove all cars?
Simply put, don't use offshore devs --- its all in the contracts. you know the ones that result in tolit seats costing thousands of dollars....
If defence programming is going to be open to companies anywhere in the world, then what exactly are you defening against?

Common solution direction of anyone skilled in th art...
So how many skilled in the art, to come up with the same solution, before the USPTO recognizes the solution or solution direction is not novel?
How many consumers whould have come up with the one click shopping idea/app. had they just had the easy enough for them to use, programming tools?
dumbing down consumers works for who?
With all the flashlights I don't see any dark corners no more.
But this won't help so much with bugs, as bugs usually show up in the running of code.
