what did you do to avoid winding up in endless GET url loops? How deep did you get per site, and how did you schedule followup requests?

In general I find Google's results to be very heavily ecommerce oriented these days but this is the first time I've considered the issue for specific keywords. I think it may be the result of an algorithm change to better infer me

I don't pretend to know the answer but many of the big retailers they mention are simply terrible brands. Anyone who has walked into a Sears, JCPenny, Radio Shack, or Macy's, knows what a disaster those stores have become. Zara, H

I feel like many of the problems he mentions could be solved by having the machine hire humans. For instance, imagine the machine publishes a list of "open communications-related tasks" on a marketplace of some kind and a small te

Really depends what you want to do. The Intel Edison kit from Sparkfun has an OLED screen with buttons on it. You can easily add sensors, speakers, etc. It runs Linux and can act as an access point (but not at the same time you use it as a

blackbird_tm is right that there is no high-res display capability, but if you are ok with alternative methods of interaction, such as audio, OLED display, VNC, web, etc., it could be used as a "computing device." You could also u

Not much discussion here so I'll jump in. I've been working on a private Telegram bot that I converse with about my daily habits, how I feel (mentally/physically), what I've eaten, etc., and in theory it will use machine

If you want to learn a new language/platform, I'm just getting in deep with Mathematica/Wolfram Language now. It's pretty eye popping how much stuff you can do in a one liner with all those built in functions! Also has t

No comment about C# (wouldnt be my first choice) To build knowledge, cred, and potential customers: find an open source/side project that excites you to death, use NewLanguage to do it, and then publish it on Github and relevant online

And apparently they had never tried rebooting some of the most important parts of that system. Just when you start to think that someone's really gotten it right you come to learn they're just fumbling around in the dark like ever

A sad day. Through the years this blog has given me a different insight on the craft of programming than the many that just tout the latest fad. His ideas often challenged my concept of structure and prose but made me a better coder in the

I hate to be that guy but considering the subject of the site.. perhaps tampering? Might be worth collecting some info to understand the problem.

Big time array fan here. I'd love to check out your language when you publish it. Sooner the better.. we need new ideas! Email in profile if you'd like to chat about it.

Is anyone maintaining an index of websites with CLIs? The topic deserves further study. Many of us have observed that doing some kinds of work via command line can be better than via a GUI. Perhaps this holds for some web-based tools/a

People always say that terse code is hard to read and understand. I'd say I just learned a lot from a quick skim of the concise source here. If it had been structured with tons of white space and split over dozens of files/folders

Just for fun, try a cheapo XL yoga mat. I find that the stiff-ish surface helps me sleep better and I wake up with less back and shoulder pain. Could just be me, and I still sometimes prefer the bed, but it's a cheap experiment and way

I had pondered a different approach: using machine learning coupled with something like Prolog or Microsoft Z3, but never got around to it. You could probably make quite a bit of money helping companies get out of bad contracts due to minor
