Well, ^, I had 90,000+ posts for the past five months; maybe ^ didn't remember that after 100,000 posts, the person becomes "a geek!!"?

< Doesn't often look at peoples' post count, and when < does, it doesn't always register in his mind.

Okay...I understand. ;)

Sometimes things don't register in <'s mind, either.

^ will now be totally unaware of his postcount.

^ Still posts like a whore despite not being able to see his postcount!

^ I thought it was in the forum stats?

It still says "I am a geek!!" if you look at the memberlist.

Yeah, I edited it. Is it the forum stats? I forget.

^ Aspires to geekdom

Yeah, I edited it. Is it the forum stats? I forget.


Yes, you can see Philip's and my postcount in the forum stats.

^ Is bugging out, in a few

What does ^ mean by "bugging" out? ???

< Thinks ^^ meant "leaving."

What does ^ mean by "bugging" out? ???

That's an Air Force term, meaning that someone is departing the area.

That's an Air Force term, meaning that someone is departing the area.

Okay!

^ Has probably bugged out by now.

^ has a silly name

^ Has a name that means nothing to me at the moment.

<would like to inform ^ that ^^ is sitting at the terminal next to me! FTR, I'm not sure what it means either.

Eurisko (Greek for "I discover") is a program written by Douglas Lenat in the Lisp programming language. A sequel to Automated Mathematician, it consists of heuristics, i.e. rules of thumb, including heuristics describing how to use and change its own heuristics. Lenat was frustrated by Automated Mathematician's constraint to a single domain and so developed Eurisko; his frustration with the effort of encoding domain knowledge for Eurisko led to Lenat's subsequent (and, as of 2006, continuing) development of Cyc. Lenat envisions ultimately coupling the Cyc knowledgebase with the Eurisko discovery engine.

Development commenced at Carnegie-Mellon in 1976 and continued at Stanford University in 1978 when Lenat returned to teach. "For the first five years, nothing good came out of it," Lenat said. But when the implementation was changed to a frame language based representation he called RLL (Representation Language Language), heuristic creation and modification became much simpler. Eurisko was then applied to a number of domains with surprising success, including VLSI chip design.

Lenat and Eurisko gained notoriety by submitting the winning fleet to the United States Traveller TCS national championship in 1981, forcing extensive changes to the game's rules. After Eurisko won again in 1982, tournament officials announced that if Eurisko won another championship the competition would be abolished; Lenat retired Eurisko from the game. The Traveller TCS wins brought Lenat to the attention of DARPA, which has funded much of his subsequent work.

^^ Seriously?

Kurtz: I've seen the horror. Horrors that you've seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have no right to call me a murderer. ...

Maybe it's BF's fascination with that movie ?

< Is still digesting that ^ is related to someone else here .... that < was unaware of 24 hours back. How can 2 peas from the same pod ........

< is also surprised that ^^ never used the Hobbs resized option that I provided some time ago .......

<Loves McFly ? .... Hmm.

Mum is visiting me next month from the UK. We'll probably head into the centre of Aus .... where I've never been. It will be stinking hot etc; but she wants to see Ayers Rock. To me, it's just a big rock, like some Americans regard the Grand Canyon as just a 'big hole' in the ground ...

Nevertheless, I'm expecting tons and tons of flies. Since McDonalds is EVERYWHERE .... it's possible I'll savour a McFly.

Suspect I  WON'T love that !

Just like I won't love this: Warning - while you were typing 4 new replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post.
