SiliconMage | 4 years ago | on: School surveillance of students via laptops may do more harm than good
It would be fairly easy for students to overwhelm their overlords with their "AI" software and reduce any gathered information to meaninglessness.
My Phones dying, I'm crying and depressed, gonna end it all and throw it off a bridge, snatch a new one, don't be glum.
"AI" that.

APL is awesome for matrices.

One of the concepts in the name that tune, errr learn to Code in fewer days than the other brands of books is that each chapter is a Lesson that should be worked on for a while before proceeding to the next lesson.
So while it is 24 hours or 7 days or whatever, they are not meant to be a sequential 24 hours, but 24 hours spread over a period of time.
I could never interest a publisher in creating a series called "Learn in 23 Hours", I'm sure it would have a clear advantage over its slower 24 hour competition. Perhaps 23.99 hours?

You can have any opinion you want so long as it is mine.
SiliconMage | 5 years ago | on: Siri, What Time Is It in London?
There's an old episode of All in the Family where Archie Bunker loses his Christmas Bonus for shipping something to the wrong London, 1971 and way before Siri or computers.
This ain't a new problem.
