What is your job?

Not so. Without the ability to implement or simulate a stack, a language cannot be Turing complete. Otherwise, that limits the computational power to that of a finite-state machine. Even so, being able to implement a stack is not sufficient

Once you start removing features, then you are only speaking of an object oriented-like programming language, not a true object oriented programming language. Examples include inheritance, abstraction, and encapsulation which you can achiev

We are talking about computing in 1985. A 25 MHz workstation would be at least 10,000% slower than a modern computer, with about 1,000× less memory available. Still, this isn't a huge difference in context, but talking about adding 4 t

Yes, I just found it actually. The article targets short stories specifically. A. Kazantseva and S. Szpakowicz, "Summarizing Short Stories." Assoc. for Computational Linguistics , vol. 36, no. 1, pp. 71-109, Mar. 2010. [Online].

Because there's no source cited for the information and it's provided in editorial journalism. What's described is a large polluted source of water and presumably it's being filtered with microscopic screen filters. Whil

Quite impressive. One improvement that I don't think would increase your lines of code might be to use a `realloc' for your variable storage, so you wouldn't run out of space or have a hard limit. https://github.co

Well, there's an exponential number of them, so you should be fine.

"At least as clean tap" really reads as "almost as clean" without an adequate explanation.

From the example, I have to wonder, how quickly does that go through tinyurl links?

Yes, and I guess that goes along with the black box idea. What function you are training for depends on your needs, and that can be achieved with deep learning or soft AI.

That example is just a simple Markov model. Using the 'T9' method of completing text is more of a novelty than something useful. I also have trouble with 'complete the sentence' type of programs because they don't a

I wish I had more ideas for applications using techniques like this, otherwise I would probably spend much more time researching natural language processing. Instead, I did a simple project on searching using language processing and just re

I don't know, how about using a dictionary and doing research? Otherwise wouldn't every commonly misspelled word show up incorrectly in spellcheck? There is quite a bit of work in the field of speech recognition, too, and it'

I like it, it's fun and simple. Good use of mouse controls, too. I'm guessing this also works on tablets?

You're right, that does sound exhaustive. Anyway, I just wanted to share my unique perspective and experiences without getting down voted, and I've already lost 2 karma on this discussion. If you have an interest in the country&#x

Well, the analogy obviously doesn't cover all cases. Certain concessions could have been made to negotiate a surrender other than demanding unconditional surrender and for the emperor to resign. Again I'm not a historian, so my po

Well, he was the first Shogun of Japan and he also lived the longest. Take it with a grain of salt.

Another Chinese proverb: 三人行必有我师焉. Basically, we can all learn from each other. Relevant because this article gives perspectives from around the world, all of which are interesting. Ultimately, though, I feel this is an event in history tha

Hm, I'm not sure. It's hard to tell the scale of something, even something small. I lived in Japan for six months where I stayed in Aizu, which is in Fukushima, and it was directly after the disaster (Although I was there for diff

Two related ideas in Japanese culture relevant to the discussion: Ichi-go Ichi-e, 一期一会, is a 16th century Japanese phrase saying that we meet each other only once in a lifetime. (Opportunities are scarce.) And then there are the stories of

Given the reliability of closed captions on YouTube and the frequency of errors in plaintext Google translate, I wouldn't be surprised if this service fails often, and often when you need it most.

The network effects of the whole water system of California are definitely something I hadn't taken into account, and I think local water storage / production is the way to go. And certainly a number of foods could be produced els

All good points. This is definitely an issue that I think deserves as much discussion as it can get. Talking about the economics of what might be required, I'm sure that many people would like to help to work on solutions.

Considering the environmental impact of desalination and the power requirements, it doesn't seem like a proper way to end the drought. The answer is always going to be adequate planning and conservation, as well as improved infrastruct

Sure sounds like an interesting idea, but I'm not sure how many people would actually put processing time into this project. Maybe it would be possible for it to take off if it had a practical purpose and one or more universities start
