My mom had an Olivetti Quaderno notebook. Just seeing the image brought so many memories. I was about 10 years. The buttons, the strange small display, bevels, ripples around the power button... Thank you for the article!

Do you see a good way to include backtracking in an imperative programming language? I can imagine how unification would work, since the ubiquitous "pattern matching" is a special case of Prolog's unification. But I've n

You write Prolog code for a living? Where? Do you happen to have a story to share? I'm very curious.

I think it's hard to define "the true 100%". It's always a matter of finding a tradeoff between capacity and lifespan – by defining a voltage range.

I'd love to read more. Do you know any sources?

For that reason, a comparison between GPT 2 and EURISKO seems funny to me. I discussed ChatGPT with my yoga teacher recently, but I bet not even my IT colleagues would have a clue about EURISKO. :-)

I very much agree about the A* idea, but this idea > Tangent: that's very similar to philosophy. doesn't click with me. Maybe, could your elaborate a bit, or provide an example, please?

From time to time, I read articles on the boundary between neural nets and knowledge graphs like a recent [1]. Sadly, no mention of Cyc. I'd bet, judging mostly from my failed attempts at playing with OpenCyc around 2009, is that the C

I was only a user of Nokia 6150 and subsequent phones. Around me, they were considered as technically perfect devices.

Also interested! We saw basically the exact opposite. :-)

As I'm also running a homelab, I was curious, what's your overall experience with IAM in this context? What was your original goal? Which services are linked to your lldap? How many users? Does it simplify things or make it more c

From my freshman years around 2005, I vaguely remember that multi-thread GUI apps were: - a way to avoid blocking the UI, - tool to gain some perf. on new fancy multi-core processors, - making the code much harder to read and debug, which o

Czech Republic, same era, but a home grown registration system (never used anywhere outside the country). The experience was exactly the same. :-D The web interface was something new and fancy at that time, but servers couldn't handle

When I was teaching Prolog are the university, I always introduced it as a niche language. “Prolog makes you unbelievably fast at very specific tasks, but don't try to implement a web server in it.” I was so wrong! :-D

There are also the Mind machines [1]. At least in Europe, there's still a company Galaxy that sells them under the "psychowalkman" name. I've used about 20 years ago. It wasn't unpleasant, but also without a big eff

For a long time, I've wondered why this application is not used by 99% LaTeX users. Is it the UI? Is there a good alternative?
