What year is it, 2005?
Is Prolog going to get a revival and become the next big language?
I tried it once and have no interest in reliving that god awful experience ever again.
>>59297948
I just learned it in Uni. I fucking hated it at times, but ended up really enjoying it. Such a different way of thinking. It also really gave me a much better intuition for recursion.
Don't know enough about if it'll make a comeback since its big thing was AI and linguistics, and the former is all about neural nets now. Don't know if linguists still care about it, either.
I recently looked up real-world Prolog applications and there were a surprising amount for NoSQL databases.

>We'll get AI, and it will almost certainly be through something very much like recurrent neural networks. And the thing is, since that kind of AI will need training, it won't be "reliable" in the traditional computer sense. It's not the old rule-based prolog days, when people thought they'd *understand* what the actual decisions were in an AI.

some quotes Ive collected from plebbit
AI is huge. Neural networks is not the only kind of AI. In the old fashion, there are at least three kinds of AI, such as Symbolism, Connectionism and Behaviorism. This aspect of classification may be obsolete because modern algorithms usually have those two or all property.
Symbolism is come from the oldest formal inference system called logic, Connectionism is come from biological neural networks, and Behaviorism is actually a methodology of psychology.
Currently popular approaches include statistical methods, computational intelligence and traditional symbolic AI.
Why exactly is Lisp considered an AI programming language?
While a lot of replies have given a correct historical answer to your exact question, (namely, "Because that's where Lisp comes from"), I want to answer the closely related question, "Why is Lisp good for AI?"
Firstly, while we can argue that Lisp is good for Good Old Fashioned AI (GOFAI), which is the logically-grounded symbolic approach to AI that McCarthy and his followers had in mind, it's quite possible that if you want to do non-symbolic AI, such as neural networks, support vector machines or other kinds of statistical machine learning, you're better off with a fast, statically-typed language with good numerical performance like C or C++. If your system uses both symbolic and non-symbolic techniques, the decision between Lisp and a static language is harder.
ML is a very different field from the old school AI that made heavy use of lisp.
Old AI was all about symbolic manipulation, and for this lisp is king.
ML fundamentally relies upon vectors, matrices, and tensors. For this some kind of array-based programming language (I recommend numpy and python) is much more important.
I did try using common lisp for ML a long time ago. I ended up implementing in macros array-broadcasting, and with hindsight it was remarkably close to a shitty version of numpy.
This is the official containment thread for all our street-shitting corporate boot-licking friends who love a thick enterprise dick deep up their asses.
What you up to?
Do non-indians even work at microsoft anymore?
Their hiring algorithms laid off pretty much all american staff and replaced them with H1B indians.
>>59297977
Dunno if you're retarded or just retarded. They have plenty of white people. Look up their diversity stats dumb fuck
>>59299166
i said american
white people aren't even a majority race in america
Hello,
I found a quad cpu motherboard. Somebody said it is made for servers. Does that mean that I cannot use it to build a PC? Are all the other parts detached in a motherboard in a normal PC?
pointless
>>59297819
Can you even afford 4 server grade cpu's?
Not for me If this a easy way to harness all the power in a reliable manner

Is this a fucking joke? Luckily, I am fortunate enough to solve my own problem.
nice blog post have you considered topping yourself you self centred prick
>>59297788
>Windows 10
Is it true that the newest Intel CPU (7k series or something) requires Win 10? That fucking sucks to be honest.
Guys, show me what kind of office you work in. I do open bullshit in a soulless corporate office.
My last job (auditor at PwC) have the same office as your pic. I've been at a few client's place (Roche, as example) and they do have the same design.
I work as level two support for a small MSP. We have a few big cubicles around the office that look somewhat similar to this but they're all built out of wood and metal, no free moving partitions etc. It's nice, plenty of personal space, room to put up my own posters and pictures
Looks nice, I wonder if anyone here ever got to their own personal office.
So with the CIA leaks out today, dies this mean linux is compromised now?
>>59297731
It means we get fixes for all of the leaked shit within mere hours.
Everything is compromise, the day sofware is perfect we're doom as mamals
>>59297731
linux was compromised the minute it had no gaymes
Am I the only one left who enjoys the simplicity and order of the gopher protocol? Does anyone else still use it?
>>59297584
It's cool, but there is nothing new to read over Gopher. Someone should make a Gopher mirror of /g/.
>>59298810
I'd give that traffic.
>>59298861
I'd give your mom traffic.
/g/, how the hell do we stop the CIA from stealing our anime and downloading our RAM?
Get rid of your computer, stay off the Internet and don't own anything that can connect to it.
stop appreciating culture you can't handle and stop being a pedo

>stop appreciating culture you can't handle
What did he mean by this?
Does /g/ have eye strain, poor eyesight, or astigmatism from working with computers? Are they astigmatism exercises just a meme or can you train your eye muscles to focus better?
I'm putting in a package to become a Naval Pilot and am worried about the astigmatism in my right eye. It's not too horrible but bad enough to blur vision at distance
I was always under the impression that astigmatism is not caused or exacerbated by looking at computer screens. I've had several opticians tell me the same thing
What's wrong with wearing glasses?
t: was dignosed with huuge astigmatism several years before i even built my first computer.
>>59297468
I have astigmatism in my right eye and coincidentally I sleep on my right side
END TO THE NVIDIA AND AMD DUOPOLY WHEN
>>59297393
only brands I can think of who do GPU stuff are Samsung, Qualcomm, and Intel. most of that is in the mobile space but they could possibly scale up if they dumped money into it
>>59297393
Never.
Even AMD only exists these days to make sure Intel and Nvidia don't get split up.
>>59297393
when AMD finally goes bankrupt and it just becomes Nvidia
Why do old people so strongly believe that games cause viruses and VR causes brain cancer?
>>59297389
because they're jealous young people have technology

I keep reading that after Firefox 57 it's gonna be difficult to write extensions and developers are already jumping off the ship. What is Mozilla doing?
>>59296630
Firefox is dropping support for XUL, which is the original system they made for creating Extensions.
The new system is called WebExtensions, which does not allow developers to do as much as they could with XUL. It's another move to a Chrome-like experience.
Developers don't (or simply cannot) want to deal with this change (rewriting their Extensions), so they are leaving.
Checkout this document listing WebExtension equivalents to XUL APIs. There's tons of stuff missing.
>>59297015
Forgot link.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Comparison_with_XUL_XPCOM_extensions
Also, some developers are leaving because they find it hard to work with the new multi-process system recently introduced (E10 or Electrolosys).

Would you swear you allegnece to free software?
Yea
>>59296569
No, swearing allegiance to social movements is for useful idiots.
>>59296569
i will support any movement that increases easier access to and modification of software and hardware. i will never swear my allegiance to any movement though. that's for people who have nothing else going on in their life and need to find something to make it meaningful, but are too fucking dumb to do it on their own terms.
