La Saga des francs maçons: Amazon.fr: Frédéric Lenoir, Marie-France Etchegoin: Livres
by bouilloire
Marie-France Etchegoin était sur France-Info ce matin et bien que n'étant pas franchement portée sur la franc-maçonnerie, je la soutiens dans son effort de révéler toutes les conneries que raconte Dan Brown dans ses livres. Donc avant de lire the Last Symbol, lisez donc celui-ci.

Dante - The Language Learning Chatterbot by Alan J. Brown
by parmentierf
(via)
Dante is the successor to CoLIn and Leo. A lot of improvements have been made including a seperate vocubulary and memory, subject linking, improved accuracy, better input parsing and greater response relevance.
Dante still learns everything he says from natural conversation without additional input or artificial ranking and can learn and speak any language.

Bailouts & Bank Credit Crisis Could Cause British Great Depression
by cryogenius
(via)
Niall Ferguson, respected economic historian, warns of other European countries facing an Iceland style bankruptcy. 'Switzerland is first in line… and Britain is not far behind,' he says.
While many politicians in Europe like to shift the blame for the credit crisis to the U.S. Niall points out that excessive lending and leveraging was much more endemic in countries such as Germany and the U.K.
Yet the U.K Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, like many European politicians continues to argue that the world is being brought down by a U.S. caused recession.
