Not content with stripping their citizenship, successive governments tried to remove the estate Tamils from the country entirely. In 1964, Prime Minister Sirimavo Bandaranaike signed an agreement with Indian Prime Minister L.B. Shastri. A second agreement was signed three years later with Indira Gandhi. These provided that 600,000 of the estate Tamils would be expelled and sent to India over a 15-year period, and 375,000 would be restored their Sri Lankan citizenship. Not all of the former group actually returned to India, and remained in Sri Lanka without the ability to vote, travel abroad, or participate fully in Sri Lankan life. It was not until 2003 that full citizenship rights were restored to the remaining Tamils in the hill country

When this Act was passed, the Tamil Congress was strongly criticized by the opposition Marxist groups and the newly formed Sri Lankan Tamil nationalist Federal Party (FP). S. J. V. Chelvanayakam, the leader of this new party, contested the citizenship act before the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka, and then in the Privy council in England, on grounds of discrimination towards minorities, but he did not prevail in overturning

There is a sizable population of Tamils in the Central Province, plantation laborers brought down from India by the British colonial authorities in the 19th and 20th centuries. These Indian Tamils (or Estate Tamils), as they are called, still work mainly in Sri Lanka’s tea plantations. They have been locked in poverty for generations and continue to experience poor living conditions.[16] Although they speak dialects of the same language, they are usually considered a separate community from the Sri Lankan Tamils of the North and East. The government of D.S. Senanayake passed legislation stripping the estate Tamils of their citizenship in 1949, leaving them stateless. The effect was to tilt the island's political balance away from the Tamils. In 1948, at independence, the Tamils had 33% of the voting power in Parliament.[citation needed]. Upon the disenfranchisement of the estate Tamils, however, this proportion dropped to 20%. The Sinhalese could and did obtain more than a 2/3 majority in Parliament, making it impossible for Tamils to exercise an effective opposition to Sinhalese policies affecting them.

Well-known minerals containing cerium, and other LREE, include bastnäsite, monazite, allanite, loparite, ancylite, parisite, lanthanite, chevkinite, cerite, stillwellite, britholite, fluocerite, and cerianite. Monazite (marine sands from Brazil, India, or Australia; rock from South Africa), bastnäsite (from Mountain Pass rare earth mine, or several localities in China), and loparite (Kola Peninsula, Russia) have been the principal ores of cerium and the light lanthanides.[26]

The cite is not for an embedded device. It is for an Android mobile phone running Android 2.2, that was bricked in 2011 according to someone who asked a question on Google. Android is now at major version 10.
The cited discussion itself also includes someone saying they found an update to fix a bricked Android device. All this is primary sourcing to an online discussion with no verification.
This is another discussion on Reddit in 2012-3 (not sure which date as it just says 6 years ago) nobody else their reports bricking their phone, though many said it rolled over to 1901. This also is online discussion with no verification so none of this follows Wikipedia's normal guidelines on sourcing.
Many transportation systems from flight to automobiles use embedded systems extensively. In automotive systems, this may include anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic stability control (ESC/ESP), traction control (TCS) and automatic four-wheel drive; aircraft may use inertial guidance systems and GPS receivers.[note 1] However, this does not imply that all these systems will suffer from the Y2038 problem, since many such systems do not require access to dates.
This is rather unclear - from the context it sounds as if it means these are all potentially likely to be affected - but it is just a list of examples of some rather arbitrarily selected examples of hardware with embedded systems. The "not all" should rather be "hardly any of these systems will suffer from the Y2038 problem". Being included in this list does not mean that hardware is more likely to be affected than the many examples of embedded systems not included in the list.

In a post cold-war world, viewed in increasing binaries of left and right winds be it social liberal - conservative or socialist-capitalist tendancies, it seems incomprehensible as to how one can reject both USA's and Soviet's socio-economic models. I'm curious to know how they organize their economy in this case.
One part why the western world hates the Islamic revolution might be their lack of understanding about this exact phrase, other than the fact that Iran became a theocracy.

Cargo cult programming is a style of computer programming characterized by the ritual inclusion of code or program structures that serve no real purpose.
Hans Moravec argued in 1976 that computers were still millions of times too weak to exhibit intelligence. He suggested an analogy: artificial intelligence requires computer power in the same way that aircraft require horsepower. Below a certain threshold, it's impossible, but, as power increases, eventually it could become easy.[79] With regard to computer vision, Moravec estimated that simply matching the edge and motion detection capabilities of human retina in real time would require a general-purpose computer capable of 109 operations/second (1000 MIPS).[80] As of 2011, practical computer vision applications require 10,000 to 1,000,000 MIPS. By comparison, the fastest supercomputer in 1976, Cray-1 (retailing at $5 million to $8 million), was only capable of around 80 to 130 MIPS, and a typical desktop computer at the time achieved less than 1 MIPS.

Make an note.
In the U.K., The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds states that there is no scientific evidence that cat predation "is having any impact on bird populations UK-wide. The article goes on to say, "This may be surprising, but many millions of birds die naturally every year, mainly through starvation, disease, or other forms of predation. There is evidence that cats tend to take weak or sickly birds".
This is only part of what they say. They go on to say
Cat predation can be a problem where housing is next to scarce habitats such as heathland. It could potentially be most damaging to species with a restricted range (such as cirl buntings) or species dependent on a fragmented habitat (such as Dartford warblers on heathland).
Are cats causing bird declines?
Some more UK cites. This is by the RSPB PREDATION OF WILD BIRDS IN THE UK
It is conceivable that predation by superabundant and well-fed predators such as domestic cats, could lead to the decline of continental species, if only on a local or temporary basis. Baker et al. (2003) recorded a negative relationship between numbers of wood mice and the numbers of cats visiting suburban gardens. This suggests that high levels of cat activity may deplete the numbers of otherwise common species, such as wood mice, in local areas. It is not possible directly to discern the process of hyperpredation in the data recorded here, though the occurrence of species of growing conservation concern among the prey records, such as water shrews, yellow-necked mice and harvest mice (Marsh, Poulton & Harris, 2001; Greenwood, Churchfield & Hickey, 2002; Moore, Askew & Bishop, 2003) gives additional cause for concern. Churcher & Lawton (1987) concluded that cats had a significant impact on house sparrows in the village they studied. A potential link between the frequent occurrence of sparrow predation in this and other studies and the pronounced decline in this species throughout Britain, should, therefore be considered and experimental work is called for in the light of this descriptive study.
In conclusion, this survey confirms that cats are major predators of wildlife in Britain. Further investigation of the extent and nature of predatory behaviour among domestic cats is clearly warranted by this initial work. In particular, detailed observation of cats in the field and description of the numbers of animals they kill and the proportion they retrieve are essential. Investigation of the response and attitude of cat owners living in a range of environments to the predatory behaviour of their cats would also be valuable
Also from the Mammal society Domestic Cat Predation on Wildlife
There are an estimated nine million domestic cats in theUK, and there is increasing concern about their possibleimpact on native wildlife. By no means are all catshunters, but extrapolations from prey returns by relativelysmall samples of cats (May 1988; Woods et al.2003)indicate that, nationally, they kill millions of birds eachyear. The house sparrow, whose numbers have halved in the UK since the mid 1970s, is one of the species most frequently killed by cats. However, house sparrowsare short-lived and have high reproductive rates, andwhether cats impose an additional mortality on sparrowsor simply kill similar numbers to those that would havedied anyway – for instance by taking young or weakindividuals (Møller and Erritzøe 2000) – is unclear.Populations of some other birds commonly killed by cats, for example greenfinches, have increased (Ravenand Noble 2006).
Declines of house sparrows in the countryside have been attributed to agricultural intensification (Hole et al.2002). However, there have also been spectacular declines (>90%) in several UK cities (Crick et al.2002;Summers-Smith 1999) and a high proportion of theirpopulation occurs in gardens (Bland et al.2004). In anarea of Bristol, cats killed at least 45% of the estimated post-breeding population of house sparrows annually(Bakeret al.2005). A recent study, however, has shown that nestling starvation – sometimes of whole broods –has played a major role in reducing house sparrowbreeding success in Leicester (Vincent 2005). A large-scale experimental test of whether lack of invertebratefood for chicks limits house sparrow populations is currently being run by the RSPB in London
Whether cat predation has contributed to house sparrow declines remains unclear. Nevertheless, it is prudent to adopt a precautionary approach to the impact of this non-native predator, and to design and adopt methodsthat reduce the numbers of sparrows, and other animals,killed by cats.
A 2018 study of the El Yunque National Forest in Puerto Rico reported a decline in arthropods, and in lizards, frogs, and birds
This was found to be a mistaken study in 2019. The numbers actually increase with warmth (as one would expect). They were confused by Hurrican Harvey which created clearings in the forest and boosted insect numbers in the earlier data records.

A value judgment (or value judgement) is a judgment of the rightness or wrongness of something or someone, or of the usefulness of something or someone
"Right", "wrong", and "useful" are all subjective values. In my understanding of this definition, if a moderator were to make an evaluation with limited information, it is hard to see how this could possibly be democratic - given people's different opinions on "right", "wrong" and "useful".
Delusions of Gender: How Our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference is a 2010 book by Cordelia Fine, written to debunk the idea that men and women are hardwired with different interests. The author criticizes claimed evidence of the existence of innate biological differences between men and women's minds as being faulty and exaggerated, and while taking a position of agnosticism with respect to inherent differences relating to interest/skill in 'understanding the world' versus 'understanding people', reviews literature demonstrating how cultural and societal beliefs contribute to sex differences.
During 1995, a decision was made to (officially) start licensing the Mac OS and Macintosh ROMs to 3rd party manufacturers who started producing Macintosh "clones". This was done in order to achieve deeper market penetration and extra revenue for the company. This decision lead to Apple having over a 10% market share until 1997 when Steve Jobs was re-hired as interim CEO to replace Gil Amelio. Jobs promptly found a loophole in the licensing contracts Apple had with the clone manufacturers and terminated the Macintosh OS licensing program, ending the Macintosh clone era. The result of this action was that Macintosh computer market share quickly fell from 10% to around 3%.

here they arrested and disarmed about 250 blacks
The page makes no mention of African Americans ever fighting back with guns other than on this occasion. This is important because the dynamic of the riot changed as African Americans began to gain access to guns late into the 22nd and the remaining days of the riot.
According to the Atlanta History Center, some black Americans were hanged from lamposts
The page makes brief mention of lynchings but then does not ever mention this again even though there are multiple lynching attempts reported and one confirmed death.
Black men and women were thrown from trolley-cars, assaulted with clubs and pelted with stones.
Again there are many examples of this that are failed to be mentioned.
25 to 30 black men and women were killed, with 90 injured. One white man was reported killed, and about 10 injured.[16]
The page fails to mention how unclear the numbers truly are and only uses one source. There is a possibility of many more unreported deaths and even more injured. The white newspapers and the white population of Atlanta eventually became ashamed of the events and attempted to downplay is significance that could have greatly affected the data that many sources use.
On Sunday a group of African Americans met in the Brownsville community south of downtown and near Clark University to discuss actions; they had armed themselves for defense. Fulton County police learned of the meeting and raided it; an officer was killed in an ensuing shootout. Three companies of militia were sent to Brownsville, where they arrested and disarmed about 250 blacks, including university professors.
There is a lot more information that could be covered here. For example the white newspapers reported that the the shootout was an ambush (this fact is unsubstantiated but it is important to talk about how white newspapers sensationalized the event), and there was also numerous African Americans killed and wounded in the shoot out that is completely not mentioned.
Alonzo Herndon's barber shop was among the first targets of the white mob, and the fine fittings were destroyed.[15] Individual black men were killed on the steps of the US Post Office and inside the Marion Hotel, where one was chased by a crowd. During that night, a large mob attacked Decatur Street, the center of black restaurants and saloons. It destroyed the businesses and assaulted any blacks in sight. Mobs moved to Peters Street and related neighborhoods to wreak more damage.
This is the only section that makes good use of specific examples but there are many more that could have been used to show the true violence of the riot.
ttacking people in their houses, or driving them outside.
There are multiple specific accounts of this but there is not mention.
10 pm, the first three blacks had been killed and more were being treated in the hospital
This does not talk about how they were killed, this was most likely due to the attacking of street cars but the artical makes not mention of this except in the intro.
Following this report, several dozen white men and boys began gathering in gangs, and began to beat, stab, and shoot blacks in retaliation, pulling them off or assaulting them on streetcars, beginning in the Five Points section of downtown.
This does not talk about the scale of the crowd that gathered in the downtown area.
Atlanta newspapers reported four sexual assaults on local white women, allegedly by black men.
This is not accurate.
The violence did not end until after Governor Joseph M. Terrell called in the Georgia National Guard,
The violence continued even after the national guard arrived on the second day, the riot simply moved into the outskirts of the city.
four European-American women raped in separate incidents
This is not entirely accurate. Some the alleged rape accusations were merely at the most stalking allegations, and some of these events took place during the days of the riot so it is impossible to call all four immediate catalyst.
According to the Atlanta History Center, some black Americans were hanged from lamposts; others were shot, beaten or stabbed to death. They were pulled from street cars and attacked on the street; white mobs invaded black neighborhoods, destroying homes and businesses.
This is very general but is also the summary. That being said the intro does not discuss the mobs that then ventured into African American communities outside the city center.
If cerebellar outputs are pharmacologically inactivated while leaving the inputs and intracellular circuits intact, learning takes place even while the animal fails to show any response, whereas, if intracerebellar circuits are disrupted, no learning takes place—these facts taken together make a strong case that the learning, indeed, occurs inside the cerebellum.[41]

This wasn't mentioned on EBSCO. It seems like a significant note to make.
Rioters stretched cables across the streets to prevent fire trucks from entering the areas.
This was not mentioned in the report.
The majority of the rioting, murder, and arson was the result of white ethnic groups attacking the African American population in the city's Black Belt on the South Side
This is almost the exact wording in the EBSCO report.
some whites seeking to help save Eugene Williams, reporting other whites to the police, denouncing the violence, and bringing food to black communities
The other sources hardly talk about the White individuals who try to help the Black communities. It's interesting, but understandable that this source would.
throwing rocks at black swimmers in the water at a beach on the South Side which resulted in Eugene Williams' death
This references the rock-throwing as a more general action. The report on EBSCO worded it in a way that made it sound like he specifically targeted Eugene only.

This Wikipedia article agrees with other sources that this was a riot, as opposed to a massacre or a pogrom.

Here is the mention of, or at least a hint towards, the Slavic immigrants.
closed to avoid interaction among bickering groups
This is certainly an interesting way to refer to the turmoil between groups. I would not describe it as "bickering."
black workers seeking to get to and from employment were attacked
This corresponds with how the EBSCO report mentioned the attacks on stockyard workers.
days of unrest
This is putting it mildly. I would have used the word "violence" if I had written this.
The turmoil came to a boil during a summer heat wave with the death of Eugene Williams
This phrasing is almost exactly the same as in the EBSCO report on the riot.
It is considered the worst of the nearly 25 riots in the United States during the "Red Summer" of 1919, so named because of the racial and labor related violence and fatalities across the nation.
Here is where the article brings this riot into the perspective of riots as a whole.
on July 27, and ended on August 3, 1919
The EBSCO source references that the riot officially ended with the withdraw of the militia on the seventh, not the third.
Early reports detailed injuries to police officers and a Chicago fireman.
It should be noted that some police officers were beaten in retaliation for unjustly beating then innocent citizens.
The majority of the rioting, murder, and arson was the result of white ethnic groups attacking the African American population in the city's Black Belt on the South Side.
Although this is true, there were also events where whites were attacked or killed in this area just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The Cook County Sheriff deputized between 1,000 and 2,000 ex-soldiers to help keep the peace.
Doesn't note that some of these ex-soldiers were African-American and therefore there were incidents where African-Americans were attacking each other.
Governor Lowden noted his opinion that the troubles were related to labor issues rather than race.
I think this riot was due to several key factors one of which was labor issues, however I think it was mostly due to race so I don't agree with this statement.
Ragen's Colts
It was good for this gang to be mentioned due to the fact that they were involved in many of the events and murders that occurred throughout the riot.
rom 1916 to 1919 the African-American population in Chicago increased from 44,000 to 109,000, a 148 percent increase.[5][8]
This is a pretty large increase in the black population for only three years.
workers seeking to get to and from employment were attacked.
Explains why there were a lot of incidents involving street cars.
Meanwhile, the Irish had been established earlier, and fiercely defended their territory and political power against all newcomers.
I had noticed that there were a lot of Irish people involved in gangs and murders when creating my spreadsheet of events. So this information stood out to me and gave more insight on why I was seeing Irish people involved a lot.
two-thirds of the injured being black and one-third white
I find this statistic to be very interesting after doing some research about this riot. It puts the situation into perspective that is easy to comprehend.
provoked by white Americans against black Americans
This race riot was initially provoked by whites against blacks. However it also ended up including blacks against blacks and whites against whites. I believe this should have been stated here as well due to the fact that it makes this riot important and stand out compared to some of the others.
Chicago race riot
After discussing what different labels mean and having to determine which label appropriately fit each riot, I do believe they are correct when labeling this a race riot and not one of the other labels we discussed.
The rioting impacted Chicago's economy. Some of the South Side's industry was closed during the riot. Businesses in the Loop were also affected by closure of the street cars. Many workers stayed away from affected areas. At the Union Stock Yard, one of Chicago's largest employers, all 15,000 African-American workers were initially expected to return to work on Monday, August 4, 1919.
one major effect of the riot seems to be the loss of jobs in chicago. the economy started to plument causing Afican-Americans to fall further down the social economy ladder with the lost of jobs.
The rioting escalated when a white police officer refused to arrest the man who threw the stone at Williams. He instead arrested an African American on a white man's complaint of some minor offense. Anger over the arrest, coupled with Williams' death and rumors among both communities, escalated into five days of rioting. Most casualties were African American and most of the property damage was inflicted in African American neighborhoods. Having learned from the recent East St. Louis Riot, Chicago quickly stopped the street cars to try to contain the violence.
The mass amount of racism causes African-Americans to be held accountable for issues that whites can simply get away with. Their lives are striped away in the hands of power.
white police officer not only failed to arrest the white man responsible for Williams' death
Does not mention how a black officer originally wanted to arrest Stauber, but was stopped by the white police officer.
white man
Doesn't mention the man who killed Eugene Williams by name: George Stauber.

I found the terms "episodic confrontations" was an interesting way to refer to the mob beatings that happened during the riot.
violent racial conflict
This article calls the riot a "racial conflict", which is a term I have not heard when referring to the race riots, although I think it is an accurate description of the events in Chicago.

He considers the evolutionist doctrine to be a major philosophical and scientific error. Schumacher argues that the evolutionist doctrine starts with the perfectly reasonable explanation of change in living beings, and then jumps to using it as an explanation for the development of consciousness, self-awareness, language, social institutions and the origin of life itself. Schumacher points out that making this conceptual leap simply does not meet the standards of scientific rigor and the uncritical acceptance of this leap is, for Schumacher, completely unscientific.
The evolutionist doctrine makes a philosophical error in its leap from its rightful explanation of biological change to the development of consciousness, self-awareness, language, and the origin of life itself.
He observes that the mere mention of spirituality and spiritual phenomena in academic discussion is seen as a sign of 'mental deficiency' among scientists. Schumacher argues that where there is near total agreement a subject becomes effectively dead; it therefore is the subjects where there is doubt that deserve the most intense research. Schumacher believes in contrast to materialistic science that what is in doubt should be shown prominently, not hidden away or ignored.
The subjects about which there is the most doubt, should be researched the most prominently.
He uses the term scientism because he argues that many people, including some philosophers of science, have misunderstood the theory behind instructional science and believe that it produces truth. But the instructional sciences are based on induction; and as David Hume famously points out induction is not the same as truth. Furthermore, according to Schumacher, instructional sciences are primarily concerned only with the parts of truth that are useful for manipulation, i.e. they focus on those instructions which are necessary to reliably produce certain results. But this does not mean that an alternative instruction set won't work, or indeed an alternative instruction set based on quite different principles. For Schumacher, instructional sciences therefore produce theories which are useful: pragmatic truths. By contrast, Schumacher argues that the descriptive sciences are interested in the truth in the wider sense of the word.
Instructional sciences don't produce truth, but pragmatic truth.

The Treaty includes no provisions for the economic rehabilitation of Europe,– nothing to make the defeated Central Powers into good neighbors, nothing to stabilize the new states of Europe, nothing to reclaim Russia; nor does it promote in any way a compact of solidarity amongst the Allies themselves; no arrangement was reached at Paris for restoring the disordered finances of France and Italy, or to adjust the systems of the Old World and the New.

5.2 Metformin[edit] Reduced serum levels of vitamin B12 occur in up to 30% of people taking long-term anti-diabetic metformin.[71][72][73] Deficiency does not develop if dietary intake of vitamin B12 is adequate or prophylactic B12 supplementation is given. If the deficiency is detected, metformin can be continued while the deficiency is corrected with B12 supplements.[74]
Fascinating overlap of two emergent life-extension-enhancement treatments.
In his Discourse on the Origins of Inequality, Rousseau, anticipating the language of Darwin, states that as the animal-like human species increased there arose a "formidable struggle for existence" between it and other species for food.[34] It was then, under the pressure of necessity, that le caractère spécifique de l'espèce humaine—the specific quality that distinguished man from the beasts—emerged—intelligence, a power, meager at first but yet capable of an "almost unlimited development". Rousseau calls this power the faculté de se perfectionner—perfectibility.[35] Man invented tools, discovered fire, and in short, began to emerge from the state of nature. Yet at this stage, men also began to compare himself to others: "It is easy to see. ... that all our labors are directed upon two objects only, namely, for oneself, the commodities of life, and consideration on the part of others."
Please change "Adrianna Salvatierra" as acting president to "Jeanine Áñez". I don't understand why this keeps getting reverted. Coming from a Bolivian user myself who literally just made an account to edit this - Adrianna Salvatierra resigned on November 10th, thus discluding her from the presidential line of succession. Since the vice-president, president of the Senate (Salvatierra), and the first vice-president of the Senate have resigned too, Jean Áñez (the second vice-president the Senate of Bolivia) is next in line.

In 2001, AI founder Marvin Minsky asked "So the question is why didn't we get HAL in 2001?"[167] Minsky believed that the answer is that the central problems, like commonsense reasoning, were being neglected, while most researchers pursued things like commercial applications of neural nets or genetic algorithms. John McCarthy, on the other hand, still blamed the qualification problem.[168] For Ray Kurzweil, the issue is computer power and, using Moore's Law, he predicted that machines with human-level intelligence will appear by 2029.[169] Jeff Hawkins argued that neural net research ignores the essential properties of the human cortex, preferring simple models that have been successful at solving simple problems.[170] There were many other explanations and for each there was a corresponding research program underway.
The first indication of a change in weather was the sudden collapse of the market for specialized AI hardware in 1987. Desktop computers from Apple and IBM had been steadily gaining speed and power and in 1987 they became more powerful than the more expensive Lisp machines made by Symbolics and others. There was no longer a good reason to buy them. An entire industry worth half a billion dollars was demolished overnight.
Eventually the earliest successful expert systems, such as XCON, proved too expensive to maintain. They were difficult to update, they could not learn, they were "brittle" (i.e., they could make grotesque mistakes when given unusual inputs), and they fell prey to problems (such as the qualification problem) that had been identified years earlier. Expert systems proved useful, but only in a few special contexts
The neats: logic and symbolic reasoning[edit source] Logic was introduced into AI research as early as 1958, by John McCarthy in his Advice Taker proposal.[100] In 1963, J. Alan Robinson had discovered a simple method to implement deduction on computers, the resolution and unification algorithm. However, straightforward implementations, like those attempted by McCarthy and his students in the late 1960s, were especially intractable: the programs required astronomical numbers of steps to prove simple theorems.[101] A more fruitful approach to logic was developed in the 1970s by Robert Kowalski at the University of Edinburgh, and soon this led to the collaboration with French researchers Alain Colmerauer and Philippe Roussel who created the successful logic programming language Prolog.[102] Prolog uses a subset of logic (Horn clauses, closely related to "rules" and "production rules") that permit tractable computation. Rules would continue to be influential, providing a foundation for Edward Feigenbaum's expert systems and the continuing work by Allen Newell and Herbert A. Simon that would lead to Soar and their unified theories of cognition.[103] Critics of the logical approach noted, as Dreyfus had, that human beings rarely used logic when they solved problems. Experiments by psychologists like Peter Wason, Eleanor Rosch, Amos Tversky, Daniel Kahneman and others provided proof.[104] McCarthy responded that what people do is irrelevant. He argued that what is really needed are machines that can solve problems—not machines that think as people do.[105] The scruffies: frames and scripts[edit source] Among the critics of McCarthy's approach were his colleagues across the country at MIT. Marvin Minsky, Seymour Papert and Roger Schank were trying to solve problems like "story understanding" and "object recognition" that required a machine to think like a person. In order to use ordinary concepts like "chair" or "restaurant" they had to make all the same illogical assumptions that people normally made. Unfortunately, imprecise concepts like these are hard to represent in logic. Gerald Sussman observed that "using precise language to describe essentially imprecise concepts doesn't make them any more precise."[106] Schank described their "anti-logic" approaches as "scruffy", as opposed to the "neat" paradigms used by McCarthy, Kowalski, Feigenbaum, Newell and Simon.[107] In 1975, in a seminal paper, Minsky noted that many of his fellow "scruffy" researchers were using the same kind of tool: a framework that captures all our common sense assumptions about something. For example, if we use the concept of a bird, there is a constellation of facts that immediately come to mind: we might assume that it flies, eats worms and so on. We know these facts are not always true and that deductions using these facts will not be "logical", but these structured sets of assumptions are part of the context of everything we say and think. He called these structures "frames". Schank used a version of frames he called "scripts" to successfully answer questions about short stories in English.[108] Many years later object-oriented programming would adopt the essential idea of "inheritance" from AI research on frames.
In 1988 Apple sued Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard on the grounds that they infringed Apple's copyrighted GUI, citing (among other things) the use of rectangular, overlapping, and resizable windows. After four years, the case was decided against Apple, as were later appeals. Apple's actions were criticized by some in the software community, including the Free Software Foundation (FSF), who felt Apple was trying to monopolize on GUIs in general, and boycotted GNU software for the Macintosh platform for seven years.

Bolt, Beranek and Newman (BBN) developed its own Lisp machine, named Jericho,[7] which ran a version of Interlisp. It was never marketed. Frustrated, the whole AI group resigned, and were hired mostly by Xerox. So, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center had, simultaneously with Greenblatt's own development at MIT, developed their own Lisp machines which were designed to run InterLisp (and later Common Lisp). The same hardware was used with different software also as Smalltalk machines and as the Xerox Star office system.
In 1979, Russell Noftsker, being convinced that Lisp machines had a bright commercial future due to the strength of the Lisp language and the enabling factor of hardware acceleration, proposed to Greenblatt that they commercialize the technology.[citation needed] In a counter-intuitive move for an AI Lab hacker, Greenblatt acquiesced, hoping perhaps that he could recreate the informal and productive atmosphere of the Lab in a real business. These ideas and goals were considerably different from those of Noftsker. The two negotiated at length, but neither would compromise. As the proposed firm could succeed only with the full and undivided assistance of the AI Lab hackers as a group, Noftsker and Greenblatt decided that the fate of the enterprise was up to them, and so the choice should be left to the hackers. The ensuing discussions of the choice divided the lab into two factions. In February 1979, matters came to a head. The hackers sided with Noftsker, believing that a commercial venture fund-backed firm had a better chance of surviving and commercializing Lisp machines than Greenblatt's proposed self-sustaining start-up. Greenblatt lost the battle.
Determinacy is a subfield of set theory, a branch of mathematics, that examines the conditions under which one or the other player of a game has a winning strategy, and the consequences of the existence of such strategies. Alternatively and similarly, "determinacy" is the property of a game whereby such a strategy exists.

The obesity epidemic has been widely publicized in the media worldwide. Investigators at all levels have been looking for factors that have contributed to the development of this epidemic. Two major theories have been proposed: (1) sedentary lifestyle and (2) variety and ease of inexpensive palatable foods. In the present review, we analyze how nutrients like sugar that are often used to make foods more appealing could also lead to habituation and even in some cases addiction thereby uniquely contributing to the obesity epidemic. We review the evolutionary aspects of feeding and how they have shaped the human brain to function in “survival mode” signaling to “eat as much as you can while you can.” This leads to our present understanding of how the dopaminergic system is involved in reward and its functions in hedonistic rewards, like eating of highly palatable foods, and drug addiction. We also review how other neurotransmitters, like acetylcholine, interact in the satiation processes to counteract the dopamine system. Lastly, we analyze the important question of whether there is sufficient empirical evidence of sugar addiction, discussed within the broader context of food addiction. ... there is strong evidence of the existence of sugar addiction, both at preclinical and clinical level. Our model has demonstrated that five out of eleven criteria for SUD are met, specifically: use of larger amounts and for longer than intended, craving, hazardous use, tolerance, and withdrawal. From an evolutionary perspective, we must consider addiction as a normal trait that permitted humans to survive primitive conditions when food was scarce. As we evolved culturally, the neural circuits involved in addictive behaviors became dysfunctional and instead of helping us survive they are in fact compromising our health. From a revolutionary perspective, understanding the molecular, and neurological/psychological intricacies of addiction (sugar, drugs of abuse) will permit the discovery of new therapies (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) and possible management of at least one crucial factor in the occurrence of obesity. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6234835/
In contrast to the episcopal polity of the Anglican and many Lutheran and Methodist churches, continental Reformed churches are ruled by assemblies of "elders" or ordained officers. This is usually called Synodal government by the continental Reformed, but is essentially the same as presbyterian polity, with the elders forming the consistory, the regional governing body known as the classis, and the highest court of appeal being the general synod. The Reformed Church in Hungary, its sister church in Romania, the Hungarian Reformed Church in America, and the Polish Reformed Church are the only continental Reformed churches to have retained the office of bishop.

Peirce was born at 3 Phillips Place in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He was the son of Sarah Hunt Mills and Benjamin Peirce, himself a professor of astronomy and mathematics at Harvard University and perhaps the first serious research mathematician in America.[citation needed] At age 12, Charles read his older brother's copy of Richard Whately's Elements of Logic, then the leading English-language text on the subject. So began his lifelong fascination with logic and reasoning.

The Latin alphabet evolved from the visually similar Etruscan alphabet, which evolved from the Cumaean Greek version of the Greek alphabet, which was itself descended from the Phoenician alphabet, which in turn derived from Egyptian hieroglyphics.[1] The Etruscans, who ruled early Rome, adopted the Cumaean Greek alphabet, which was modified over time to become the Etruscan alphabet, which was in turn adopted and further modified by the Romans to produce the Latin alphabet.
But did the Latin alphabet really come from Greek?

Bartoli is considered a coloratura mezzo-soprano with an unusual timbre. She is one of the most popular (and one of the top-selling) opera singers of recent years.[1]
This can maybe be expanded more. While stating that her voice is "unusual" is accurate, it does not describe what that means to a non musician and someone who doesnt know her music. It also fails to acknowledge her important parts of her youth and her years growing post Conservatory Santa Cecilia.
[edit] In 2012 Bartoli became the artistic director of the Salzburg Whitsun Festival, an extension of the traditional Salzburg Festival, which produces performances during Whitsun (Pentecost) weekend. Forgoing the academic programming of her predecessors, she reformulated the festival's programming—returning to "the old recipe of organizing beautiful programs and inviting great artists"—resulting in record ticket sales and placing the festival on the international opera calendar. In 2012, she sang Cleopatra in Handel's Giulio Cesare, in 2013 the title role in Vincenzo Bellini's Norma, and in 2014 Rossini's La Cenerentola.[7]
Bartoli was also the first female director in Salzburg.
