Just go to any modern art gallery and read about a painting or sculpture. Lots of fancy-sounding sequences that seem deep but say nothing. Though I don't have the "inspired" experience, just the "what a load of BS" experience.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Ever listened to a mainstream economist? Or politicians? It's the essence of bull****.

I understand the purpose of the study, but I cannot agree for if you have never experienced this source through non-local interactions, it can be difficult to reflect.

Oracle cannot meet expectations for the planned release of Java 9 in September 2016. In a message broadcast to the community via mailing list, chief architect Mark Reinhold has revealed that the modularisation work in Project Jigsaw needs more time. Are they having troubles reimplementing C# features?

Work's planning to roll out IE11 while I'm on Chrismas-use-up-extra-vacation-days-break; hopefully that'll be enough extra time that they manage to stop down the overlooked enterprisy WTFs that need older IEs before I'm back.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I don't know if the name election is the most adequate right now with all the political problems they are having/triggering. Or maybe is it just due to that?

Inspired by the reactions to snunkoople, Westbury set out to determine whether it was possible to predict what words people would find funny, using entropy as a yardstick. Mathematicians don't get invited out much

Really? Using entropy to predict the outcome of a sentence is a stupid thing? It's a step forward to improve the understanding between AIs and humans, and to emulate emotional inflections in automated speech.

Ah...I would start with that...IMHO all the AI thing is stupid! We have a history of a few thousand years already full of miserable events, just because of our great intelligence...Let us do first things first - cure that intelligence instead of re-creating it...
