True, one AI was used to found a weakness in another AI. But then it turned out that the weakness could easily be used to defeat that the AI by a strong amateur level player. 6 Dan amateur is about 1 Dan professional, realizing that Lee Sed

It looks like this shows that GO AI does not have the 'deep understanding' of Go as it was thought to have. It seems that many amateurs Go players can learn the tricks to exploit these weaknesses. In some sense it is more sensatio

When reading about semantic web, I always feel that the authoring part is ignored. In a distributed environment, statements about facts have no meaning if it is not possible to trace the source of the fact. So, each piece of data should be

As this kind of behaviour is regularly seen at the borders of Europe, I pressume that this is also happening regularly near Alaska.

A long time ago, I started working on something similar. There are some binary editors that support writing grammars. I worked on reverse engineering several binary file formats. When working on Quark Express file format, I discovered you d

Just this morning, when I was biking to work, I was thinking about this. For many decades I have felt that object-oriented has some flaws and that value oriented has more promises. You could consider transactions applied to databases as fun

This benefits scandal is far more about a government not wanting to recognize that things went wrong when the first signals occured many years ago (a legal advisor was ignored and demoted) and forgetting the human side of the application of

I was just mentioning the KJV as an example because it was mentioned in the article, but I guess that the same can be found about every English translation. I have a NASB translation at home that I used a long time when I still believed in

Rather superficial article about the subject. Whole books are written about the subject or why one translation is better than another. (A quick search will find you people telling you not to use the King James translation.) The article does

I have wondered whether using a small windmill (on the roof) to power the compressor directly could work. This to prevent the energy loss of converting mechanical energy to electrical and electrical to mechanical again. Combining this with

I think it depends on you personality whether you are able to hide your insecurities or not. I also do not know whether it is a good thing to hide them, because they can surface in other forms, like anger, bitterness, revenge, depression, a

Something I would like to add to the list (being in the field for 33 years): Discover that your greatest struggle is with your own deep rooted sense of insecurity, I think that software engineering, like no other form of engineering, has an

Algol 68 was the first programming language that was being taught at the University of Twente when I started studying there in 1981. I vaguely remember something about a compiler (probably the Algol 68 compiler) with the wierdest bug that I

No, I was not being facetious. I am not a regular user of Python, mostly have been writing/maintaining software in C++ and (in the past three years) C#. I came across it because a colleague (fluent in Python) had used scipy.interpolate

His final conclusion is that C has to go, just like COBOL, Fortran, and PL/I. I wonder how long it will take before C will be gone totally when you realize how much COBOL and Fortran are still around. Not so long ago, I came along a mo

There are a number of books that are based on Winnie-the-Pooh and quoting fragments. For a long time, I have had the idea to write a kind of annotated version of the stories with references to all the books that reference the text. I unders

Not very practical for daily commutes. If I would not feel safe biking, I would rather wear a helmet than a device like this. Here in the Netherlands, biking (without support) at speeds around 15km/h if you are in good health and of so

Are you implying to always wear a helmet? When you are in a car, in public transportation, walking down the street, going down the stairs or just always? The last time, I hit my head was in a house. The closest I came to a concussion was wh
