Statistical MT methods are old hat and have been even used in things like automatic image annotation years ago. Parallel text correspondence learning is not novel. Short bib.
Maybe it could simply be that they were never really extinct in the first place, just very rare and lost? Your example in your post where you attempt in a very bad way to bash creationism makes just as much sense as the babble a few posts up about these being different entities that evolved to look exactly like the other flowers/birds.
Both are statements from people who don't know what they're talking about but like to push an agenda even if it doesn't make sense. Except here on reactionary slashdot, any crazy idea will get modded up as long as it has the word "evolution" in it.
With all their services, they didn't have an encapsulated portal to get people to log in completely so that activity could be tracked more efficiently. Now they do, finally.
They needed a way to "package" their applications into one "OS"-like method. The only way Google can do that right now is a portal/personalized homepage. No surprise, really.
I expected my post to be modded funny and not insightful
Anything anti-American on/. gets modded insightful as quickly as the latest google gossip. Oh how I beat myself in shame to have been born in this geographical region...
The ad about multiple sclerosis (MS) I can understand, but the Italian travel and Eritrean single ads I just don't get. I don't see any keywords or related keywords that would be triggering those particular ads, unlike the MS one.
I know this feature is old news, but when I clicked the link in the story, it gave me results for my zip code without me entering it...So somewhere along the line when I was using google maps or something, the system knew which was my zip code...that was a little creepy.
Now, in conjunction with their maps system, they can follow which stores/restaurants/etc you go to. Tracking web activity and real-life activity means big sells to advertisers, maybe.

Google already knows your computer usage...might as well track your location and places you go in real life also. Think of how much advertisers would pay for that info in addition to everything else Google tracks about you (email, searches, local drive searches, internet usage).
You can choose to stop storing your searches in My Search History either temporarily or permanently, or remove items, as described in My Search History Help. However, as is common practice in the industry, Google maintains a separate logs system for auditing purposes and to help us improve the quality of our services for users.
They'll have the info, you just can't access it anymore when you turn it off.
The other search engines really only get article time from individual posters every-now-and-then, like A9 or Yahoo, etc. It's really getting out of hand.
Perhaps a better challenge would be a program that could accurately perform the judge's duty of determining whether a lesser program, like A.L.I.C.E. is a female or not.

Slashdot Mirror
It's great for users, but bad for maintaining the real value of software and the idea of paying people to write it.
With people rhythmically populating cells to the sounds of the Chemical Brothers...
I think they still have some work on that one, but maybe.
So when will Google Maps be available for this universe?
Reaching out to help the less fortunate search engines, how philanthropic.
The Mathematics of Statistical Machine Translation: Parameter Estimation by Brown, Pietra, et al. IBM was on this a while ago, and other efforts have improved upon this work, through the use of Maximum Entropy, etc.

Seems like some are contextual, others aren't. I get the Eritrean / Christian dating ads on other stories.

So competition is looking up on this item, at least.

But just because Universe Man is a pacifist.

True, but is the real quote that much different? 'Taking the initiative in creating' is just as misleading.
Does there need to be another reason, really?
