'Serenity'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Hands off my dead gay secret celebrity geek boyfriend!
No! Mine!
...unless you have a simple and quick writeup of the halting problem and its application to the Entscheidungsproblem, preferably with quotes, so I didn't have to do it myself. Then we might be able to negotiate.
Brilliance, Raq, brilliance! The stuff is collecting all around the door, for easy wiping off. It's not going into the lint trap, but that's probably because the bits are too big. Running the dryer again on no heat, as there are more bits that need be gotten off.
I love Alan Turing. I was reading a history of coding when I first heard of him and literally cried on the T when reading about how his brilliant life ended. Wow, sexy brains on that one.
OMG! That Turing quote is exactly what I needed on Saturday. I had someone arguing with me that computers could never be smarter than people.
Yay for problem-solving and lack of teeth-gnashing!
So why doesn't she just check the pockets? Wouldn't that take less time than turning everything inside out only to right it again after drying? She has no answer for that. Hrmph.
Laura, the answer to that is the number of times I have washed tissues in spite of the fact that I am, theoretically at least, in the habit of checking pockets. Mind you, I have yet to acquire the habit of turning stuff inside out. Perhaps I should, as it would have prevented today's little mishap.
I do not think that this argument is sufficiently substantial to require refutation. Consolation would be more appropriate: perhaps this should be sought in the transmigration of souls.
One wonders what he would say to reassure those of us with the honestly stated fear of "OMG, thinking machines... what if they think they don't like us?"
... someone arguing with me that computers could never be smarter than people.
I think they could, depending on the definition of "smart". And this terrifies me. Possibly irrational, but then I did grow up watching Star Trek.
I think transmigration of souls again. Possibly.
I think transmigration of souls again. Possibly.Heh. Do I get points for not trying to intellectualize my fear?
Timelies!!
Hec - thanks for the music, just saw your note, so I will download this evening. FUN!!!

Snuggles with Maidengurl
Yay! Laura snuggles. I was afraid my good mood killed the thread.
Not sure WHY I'm in a good mood, but I wasn't going to question it.
