Position Statement

I do not fear AI or robots. I fear humans. Within the next 30 years (again) a very good chance of computer-generated creatures being close to thinking like a small dog. Is all good. Another industrial revolution. Look at those factory jobs robots are doing, is brilliant. So everyone has to retrain as a computer programmer. Well grab your wifi....

Mental Witches

Had a little personal epiphany just now, walking back from Castiglione (tobacco run…ok, wine too). tldr If you’re bored, read on, if you’re happy clap your hands, or vice versa.   I’ve been home for a month, done nothing you’d call productive. Each week mostly two-part: half wine bender; half depressed couch potato. Was putting it down to post-holiday malaise,...

Easter Island – a 21st Century Parable

Easter Island (Rapa Nui: Rapa Nui, Spanish: Isla de Pascua) is a Chilean island in the southeastern Pacific Ocean, at the southeasternmost point of the Polynesian Triangle. Easter Island is famous for its 887 extant monumental statues, called moai, created by the early Rapa Nui people. A tiny green dot in an ocean of blue. People arrived there, it is...

Shaving Horse

“Dobbins” (as Raven dubbed it). I enjoy woodcarving using a mallet & gouge on the bench, but with that toolkit things tend towards the decorative. But there’s something very appealing about the bodger‘s approach, with minimal tools used outdoors on green wood, generally making functional products. A key tool there is the drawknife, ideally suited for many jobs, but regular...

Dissecting George the Computer Robot

danbri‘s trying to reverse-engineer Big Trak bots, reminded me I had an old bot to play with : Compurobot® George the Computer Robot from 1984. Mine was a pressie, long time after that (charity shop?) but pre-Web, didn’t have a manual. According to The Old Robots Web Site, he has a 4-bit microprocessor. Curiosity fuelled, last night I opened him up. Two screws...

Intense

Damn that was weird. First, huge apologies to anyone I might have chatted to in the past 18 or so hours, wow, I totally lost it. I’d had to reduce my medication dose to zero over the space of about 5 days, run out of funds

Small ideas, loosely coupled.

I recently got a little bit worried, spending most of many years advocating a timbl world view, don’t try anything clever with your software. Damn you, stupid dannys. Just another kind of foaf:Agent I assume the schema.org has the same world view. You just cut everything down to a shared notion of communication we can understand. Something like HTTP. Still...

Contrast

Recently I had two poles apart ideas, both probably symptomatic of my recent mania, but please forget  their nativity, please look at them without that. Although I can only describe this way. So one was “Always ON”. I’ve been a bit blabbly forever, enjoyed having a blog. Rare original ideas, but loving to tell people about the nice things I’d...
