The Register -- The Node Ahead: JavaScript leaps from browser into future
march 2011 by adamcrowe
'In certain Silicon Valley circles, Node is known as The New PHP. Or The New Ruby on Rails. Or The New Black. It's The Next Big Thing, according to, well, just about everyone who uses it. "For a while, I called it The New Rails," says Tom Hughes-Croucher, the author of the upcoming O'Reilly tome Up and Running with Node.js and the chief evangelist at cloud computing outfit Joyent, Node's primary steward. "But then I realized it was getting more views on github than Rails. So now I call it The New PHP."'

MIT OpenCourseWare -- 6.00 Introduction to Computer Science and Programming, Fall 2008
february 2011 by adamcrowe
'This subject is aimed at students with little or no programming experience. It aims to provide students with an understanding of the role computation can play in solving problems. It also aims to help students, regardless of their major, to feel justifiably confident of their ability to write small programs that allow them to accomplish useful goals. The class will use the Python™ programming language.'

Gamasutra -- Dirty Coding Tricks
august 2009 by adamcrowe
'Eventually the penny dropped. The real problem was not that the geometry had small holes in it. The problem was that Damp fell through those holes: damp_old = damp_loc; move_damp(); if (NoCollision()) {damp_loc = damp_old; } In one swoop a thousand bugs were fixed. Now instead of falling off the level, Damp would just shudder a bit when he walked over the holes. Spurred on by the success of "if A==bad then NOT A", I used this tool to patch several more bugs...' -- LOL!!!

These payloads have, so far, been used by variants A, B and C to replace themselves with variant D, which does not infect new hosts over NetBIOS or through removable media.'

Why don’t you do that again?” Then I started kicking off other viruses, and they said, “That’s pretty cool that you kicked all the viruses off. Why don’t you kick the competitors off, too?”

Sherry Turkle -- Artificial Intelligence and Psychoanalysis: A New Alliance (PDF)
january 2009 by adamcrowe
"Despite their differences, psychoanalysis and AI have always shared theoretical affinities –among these, the challenge to the idea of the autonomous, intentional actor, the need for self-reference in theory building, and the need for objects such as censors to deal with internal conflict. The strength and the weakness of object theories are the same in both psychoanalysis and AI: the strength is a conceptual framework that offers rich possibilities for models of interactive process; the weakness is that the framework may be too rich. The postulated object may be too powerful: they explain the mind by postulating many minds within it."
