How many doctorates in Computer Science have been given out? I bet there are at LEAST that many languages.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

The Institute of Artificial Intelligence at Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center created an AI program that can allegedly analyze brain waves and facial expressions to gauge whether a person is loyal to the Chinese Communist Party. So, what number am I thinking of?

And I've written an AI program that identifies income tax cheats. It outputs "cheat!" for any input...

Read the article - the CCP is either trying to scare the Chinese people into compliance or they have created a system to ensure they stay in power, at all costs. Anyone who thinks the CCP is benign is what Lenin referred to as a "useful idiot."
And yes, this post may be seen as political, but the article definitely dove into politics.

The European Parliament on Tuesday ratified landmark laws that will more closely regulate Big Tech and curb illegal content online, as the EU seeks to bring order to the internet "Wild West". European Parliament regulating something? Is this new?

I'm just glad they put world hunger, inflation, and homelessness on the back burner for this. I feel safe knowing that they are tackling the big issues.

Scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered three subatomic particles never seen before as they work to unlock the building blocks of the universe, the European nuclear research centre CERN said on Tuesday. They're still on the search for the 'zesty', 'gochujang', and 'cool ranch' particles

In 1972, Alan Kay, Dan Ingalls, and Adele Goldberg at Xerox PARC created a revolutionary new programming language called Smalltalk. It's going to get popular, aaaaaaaany day now
|
|

I had the misfortune to be a support engineer for a Smalltalk product. The main problem was that none of our team knew the language, so were trying to learn it at the same time as identifying or fixing faults. It was later replaced by a C++ version.

It was relatively popular for a while and IBM was behind it. Then Java happened...
|

Ah, that explains why an investor had suggested we move to SmallTalk (mid-90s?). I thought he was just being a hippy-dippy, but it was because he used to work for IBM (pre-Java).
