Corn starch non-Newtonan fliud hardens (pun!) under stress. A bag full of the stuff can easily be made to assume shapes with the correct persuasion. I clearly am thinking far too much about this.

It was this one. And I, too, shall pass.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

You know, guys... I AM going into a bio-medical engineering program.

With an eye towards research.

I have some ideas you might want to hear.


Anyway, early this morning, it was cloudy. Mid-morning to noon, the sky rained and thundered, wind blew trees all about, and the rain came down at a 70 degree angle. When school ended it was sunny again, few clouds in the sky. Now it rains and thunders once more, but without the wind. Nature is having a fit or something.

Out of boredom I did some searching on Google and found a website that can find out where the location of any server in the world is. I'm now for some reason wondering why bay12games.com is hosted somewhere in California while bay12forums.com is hosted somewhere in New Jersey, though I'm more wondering why I give a fuck.

Toady doesn't personally maintain the servers that host the sites, he rents them from a company. As such, the locations of the sites could be anywhere, and could change over time.

SMF is the forums company. Toady uses them so they store the site.

I kind of figured. Doesn't Toady live in a shack on his parent's ranch or something? I remember reading something like that in that article the New York Times had about Dwarf Fortress being in a museum. It's been a while since I read it though so I might be remembering wrong.

No, Toady lives in an apartment in a Seattle suburb.

More reason why people should take what I say with a grain of salt.

For the first time in a long time, I got sucked in by Wikipedia today, on the topic of unrecognized states and microstates. There's a lot of weird experiments in political science that have gone on in the world that aren't often talked about.
