  1. is being driven insane by the evaluation model of Mathematica
  2. @sowhatquestion is staging a DDos attack against Ayatollah Khomeini's website. This link will refresh every second. http://bit.ly/AZOP0
  3. @sowhatquestion here is a link: http://bit.ly/AZOP0
  4. @sowhatquestion the main server.
  5. @sowhatquestion try http://farsi.khamenei.ir/ it is a more substantial website and if they separate servers by subdomains it will hit
  6. @sowhatquestion seems to be working. Alexa says the site load time is typically 1.2 seconds. It is far longer now.
  7. Water + boxed hummus mix = frankenhummus...
  8. @patrickc which is a good enough reason to start an implementation. :-) It may also be enough of a departure that it contains some new ideas
  9. @patrickc One interesting idea is to have a computer language that's reversible all the way down. I'd be interested in this as physics...
  10. @patrickc Like Newton, or Einstein. Personally, I think this is hugely detrimental to his projects. I want to work on a different CA system.
  11. @patrickc unfortunately the man is brilliant, but he also seems to have evolved mechanisms to defend against forces keeping him in line.
  12. @patrickc Wolfram has hurt himself considerably by the wide ranging superficial analysis of a plethora of fields: quantum mechanics, biology
  13. @patrickc I would call this part of the call to computational science, however. Whether this is worth 1200 pages is another matter.
  14. @patrickc this is to a large extent misguided: one can't embed complex phenomena in less powerful systems - one needs complexity
  15. @patrickc in ANKS. So much of science consists in trying to find simple predictors of complex phenomena. Wolfram argues successfully that...
  16. @patrickc The reaction against Wolfram is typically extreme, but he does overstate his case. However, there's an important change in view
  17. The fact that Wolfram|Alpha has chemical thermodynamic data at different pressures/temperatures and Mathematica doesn't is driving me crazy.
  18. @patrickc You might like this post: http://bit.ly/dGa8u
  19. Just discovered that Wolfram|Alphas live video feed runs on justin.tv
  20. @snoble (did you go to Dal per chance? I think you might have graduated a year ahead of me)
