The Modcomp computer, 1970+, had a dynamically programmed instruction set capability using a programmable ROM. It was targeted at applications written for other systems, and for realtime problems that benefited by an instruction set crafted

Your background is in engineering so that informs your choices. Further, math/CS are not linearly enumerated fields. E.g., there is no field of CS, it is a domain of many fields. Think tree, not list. That domain would take you a lifet

One of the biggest reasons for the interest is that the first telescope was developed that could see birds and people on the moon. That would be like television shows every night. http://hoaxes.org/archive/permalink

That's fabulous, it hits all the right buttons, AI, AR, Actors, Machine Learning, Unity 3D _AND_ source code. My students will love this, and I hope we can become contributors.

I believe it was Big Brother that had a patent for AI using spreadsheets back in the early 1980's. It did not stand up to scrutiny if I recall.

Mr. Moskowitz should revisit his research. Heinz did their preparation before capturing the market. This involved taste testers and a close examination of how ketchup flows and adheres to bread. Then there is the small item of federal regul

I have to agree with LT, but not on technical issues. This is a question of business issues. You can look at many facets of different cases, but they are all distilled into "Path Dependant Behavior". Sometimes it is called "B

Once again the U.S. has been caught on the back foot. We are late in responding to GDPR and by now the scope has changed. The real issue is that there is no regulatory body for the protocols of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Market driven r

How about you embiggen it to include polar on 1 unit circle and 3 points in 1x1x1 square (Pro version has more detail). Maybe even include shading and luminescence.

What I find curious through this whole affair is the silence on the topic by the U.S. For two countries that share a "Special Relationship" I had expected to hear the State Dept. say something. After all, major changes in governan

Any ideas if that terrain would be released? It along with the building represents a lot of work and instructive material. And the code includes many .h files. It would be great to see those also.

I have a more informed perspective. First, Finland introduced a browser (Erwise) two years before the W3c browser. Second, the U.S. is stumbling in terms of getting beyond analytic and ANN designs, and AGI is an area where few in the U.S. w

I agree with your Trump assessment with one addition: on his way out the door, his last words will be, "That's it, I'm outta here, you don't appreciate what a great job I did, it was beautiful, you don't deserve me.

I second this. The leading edge in HCI is in VR. Imaging the new degrees of freedom from popping menus around in 3-space leads to challenges. What happens to that menu then when your avatar does a cartwheel across the battlefield. Or, how d

Dijkstra's Shunting algorithm, also called the Twin Stack algorithm, is a work of art in its simplicity and function. It can convert an algebraic express to a RPN sequence that can be executed on a stack machine. I like to use it to te
