The pull quote from the article is indeed misleading. McFadden's work is an attempt to provide a foundation for adaptive mutation. Adaptive mutation is where only well adapted mutations occur at odds with a random explantion. From (the

The recent work at Berkeley using deep nets for domestic robot control is interesting. Deep nets turn camera pixels into motor torques. The robots are quickly trained to a new task and once trained the solutions are robust to changes - no c

I liked lego much later than cuisinaire but lego was not based on a unit cube like cuisinaire. Lego has a different unit height than unit width. Cuisinaire were better for flat math rather than cubic math ziggurats that I dimly recall build

The brilliance of the cuisinaire rods is they are accurate and so the way they fit together was immensly pleasing to me when I was little. The smallest one is a cube, then a red rod exactly two cubes. I loved the cuisinaire rods I had as a
