Beautiful. Please read everything this man has ever written. I don't care what you think about Lisp - buy yourself a copy of the Paradigms Of Artificial Intelligence Programming and work through it. It's one of the greatest books on the practice of problem solving ever.
- tokenadult 15y agoPlease read everything this man has ever written. Yes. Especially, please read "Warning Signs in Experimental Design and Interpretation" http://norvig.com/experiment-design.html http://norvig.com/experiment-design.html before submitting to Hacker News a link to a press release or low-quality news report about a new research finding. This link is by far my favorite link to post in comments on HN, because the issues brought up in "Warning Signs in Experimental Design and Interpretation" come up over and over and over again in discussions of purported research findings.
- abecedarius 15y agoThat's right. PAIP is like his Python essays online, only 950 pages worth and in Lisp. You don't have to be a fan of Lisp to see that there could be a lot to appreciate there.
