Geneva & Zurich are always going to be laughably expensive, mostly.

May I suggest a small textual amendment? "tell us where you commute to " might be a little clearer. Edit: Also "Please enter your commute address..." in the input box. :)

Hmm, not specifically, but if I was being pushed, maybe a little bit more about how you found the f/e with clojurescript/om.

Interesting, but way too short. Could have gone into a little bit more detail.

Same here. Fantastic book though - made up for the disappointment of never working it out (hey, I was 11.. ;) )

I enjoyed the use of the term 'minicomputer', being old enough to remember minicomputer actually meaning something somewhat larger than the size of a modern day internet router :)

This. A Million times this. However I fear the subtlety will be lost on the majority, as we continue to construct our own cages around ourselves.

Worked for me just now (7 minutes after your post). Minor general complaint to people tarring up stuff for download; It's always useful to provide a useful title and/or author to identify the file, instead of something like '

Cuckoo clock is southern germany, not switzerland. Common misconception.

I've dabbled a bit in the past as live & studio sound engineer for a few bands, and can understand where you're coming from.. I wonder though how things like the kind of rigs artists like Kraftwerk use (for wavefield synthesis

I'd put money on English being the business language.

Sadly no idea who John Oliver is until you mentioned him (English man living in Switzerland). Quite sad that a lot of Americans don't know who Snowden is, I think most Europeans do (in a completely unscientific anecdata kind of way, yo

I kind of agree TBH, although I would say their search engine (as it is today) and a 'fact-repo' are quite different things. I'd expect a higher level of rigour in the fact-repo ML checking processes.

by rasur 11y ago
I remember Freebase, I even recall fact-checking on it a while ago.. I'd be interested to see how their current efforts are shaping up - if it's all ML or requires human assistance.

I'd really rather prefer there was some online repository of facts, constantly updated via Machine Learning over publicly available information, which might give up to the second responses of the kind 'Our current understanding is

Yes, that was my intention with 'tested'. I'm sure IBM have the resources to jazz up something a bit more application specific if they really wanted.

Oh I realise that, I used to use them, I do roughly recall their benefits ;) I was just asking out of idle curiosity, nothing more.

Thanks for the pointers, it's been a while since I've actually used an IBM mainframe in anger, it's interesting to see what the latest state of things is.
115.
by rasur 11y ago
Yeah, that's the thing, isn't it? You sink that much investment into a mainframe, you're going to be having better things to do with them than mine bitcoin. Although, yet another idle thought; maybe IBM themselves have '

I'd be curious to know what a modern day IBM mainframe can do, just out of idle interest.

I'm confused - this looks and sounds like Phratch but they don't mention Pratch at all (although hint towards it by mentioning BYOB (Build You Own Blocks) which is something that Phratch had). EDIT: My bad, BYOB seems to be separa

It'll be interesting to see how the Linux & Mac communities react to this, considering their line about concentrating on Windows for the moment. No ETA for Linux/Mac development restarting.

Didn't work in Firefox 37.0.2 for me, but did in Chrome latest. Nice though, thanks! EDIT: Forgot to mention; on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04)
