The AI Report - Forbes.com

by parmentierf
Can machines think? In 1950, Alan Turing, considered by some to be the father of modern computing, published a paper in which he proposed that, "If, during text-based conversation, a machine is indistinguishable from a human, then it could be said to be 'thinking' and, therefore, could be attributed with intelligence." He predicted that a computer would pass this "Turing Test" by the end of the century. That hasn't happened--yet. But the question continues to provoke and inspire. AI might be just around the corner, or it might be centuries away.

Medallia Blog: Google Print & Library Lookup Mashup - Greasemonkey Library 2.0

by decembre
puts a small yellow box in the corner of your Google Print book search. The box includes a book title and a link to the library system's search results. When clicked, a new browser tab is created containing the library's lookup page with the book's location and status. The script also linkifies the library names on the latter page, to point to the library's street map, hours and phone page. This GM script acts on 2 completely separate pages. Should be relatively straightforward to alter for your own local library's book search API and map and hours.

Understanding Bidirectional (BIDI) Text in Unicode

by Spone
A little-understood corner of Unicode is its handling for bidirectional text (The spec is a little dry). While English languages are read left-to-right, plenty of scripts (notably Arabic and Hebrew) are read from right to left. When only a single direction of text is used in a document, it's fairly straight forward, but when texts with different directions are mixed in one document, some difficulty arises in determining direction. This document attempts to explain how bidirectional text in Unicode works and what this means for the web.

Near Future Laboratory » Blog Archive » Workflow

by karlcow

I’ve managed to create a rugged imaging work flow which has all the characteristics of an over-wrought, over-the-top Balkan bureaucracy. Nevertheless, it works for me for the time being, although I’m fairly certain there’s a quagmire of snafus and lost data lurking just around the corner.
