For sure. Merge is the most basic primitive for creating metadata. If you are familiar with RDF, which uses Subect-Object-Predicate triples that's more similar to Chomsky's original X-bar theory which calls these triples Head-Comp

Normally antennae are constructed out of solid materials. The plasma is controlled by electricity, so the gain characteristics can be rapidly controlled and dynamically tuned in real-time (possibly).

I also heard this alternatively phrased as "FBI cracked El Chapo's encrypted comms system by flipping his sysadmin." Not sure whether it makes a difference but the FBI is known for coercion, but the article calls it "rec

The concept of truth is notably absent from this quote though. Printing what someone doesn't want printed is just as likely public relations. I get that what it's (probably) going for is bringing truth to light but truth is exactl

Loved the link to the paradox on wikipedia. I have said my whole adult life that I believe in tolerance for everything but intolerance - never knew and happy to find it's been called out as a bit of a paradox since 1945! Excellent inte

Did the author not notice the text on the Project Bloks homepage he linked to that says "creating new ways to teach computational thinking to kids." Pretty disingenuous or arrogant to act like you're setting Google straight x

Stephenson is a fairly well respected futurist. The Magic Leap technology involves light field projection - kind of like the opposite of light field photography if you remember the Lytro camera.

Take a machine learning class on coursera - you'll have a big leg up on the math. If you get the math, the algorithms are straightforward and the field is growing.
