translation




The indeterminacy of translation:

"Consider Quine's example of the word 'gavagai' uttered by a native upon seeing a rabbit[1]. The linguist could do what seems natural and translate this as 'Lo, a rabbit.' But other translations would be compatible with all the evidence he has: 'Lo, food'; 'Let's go hunting'; 'There will be a storm tonight' (these natives may be superstitious); 'Lo, a momentary rabbit-stage'; 'Lo, an undetached rabbit-part.' Some of these might become less likely ? that is, become more unwieldy hypotheses ? in the light of subsequent observation. Others can only be ruled out by querying the natives: An affirmative answer to 'Is this the same gavagai as that earlier one?' will rule out 'momentary rabbit stage,' and so forth. But these questions can only be asked once the linguist has mastered much of the natives' grammar and abstract vocabulary; that in turn can only be done on the basis of hypotheses derived from simpler, observation-connected bits of language; and those sentences, on their own, admit of multiple interpretations, as we have seen."



bw




Beeswax - is an information management system inspired by Lotus Agenda. It aims to recreate Agenda's flexibility and efficiency in a clutter-free, text-based (ncursesw) user interface with vi key bindings. Beeswax views & reports will have specifications for sections, columns, filtering, and sorting.

Can we have this as a Emacs Lisp extension please?

Tenet the first:oiu isn't unix
Tenet the second:We don't need no steenking files
Tenet the third:We don't need no steenking linkers either
Tenet the fourth:There is but one tree although manifold are its roots and branches
Tenet the fifth:The documentation is the code

Wacky!

testing flash




The flash-selenium project - aims to extend the Selenium RC clients for adding Flash communication capabilities.
Testing Flash with Selenium RC
AutoTestFlash - This is a tool to record and play UI Tests in flash applications. UI Testing is better than Unit Testing because usually it enables a larger coverage and does not have impact in refactorings. The recorder also makes it easier to create tests.

Ummm, FAIL: UI Testing is *not* better than unit testing, but it's a good adjunct. Unit tests, Regression Tests and UI tests are all important parts of testing.

weka




"Q: when running Weka, we get "Train and test set are not compatible" error.
A: 1. Make sure that the train and test sets have EXACTLY the same attributes (fields),
including last entry:
@attribute Class {MED,MGL,RHB,EPD,JPA}
2. If the attribute descriptions appear to be identical but you still get the same error, you may have an invisible control character in one of the files. Remove the attribute descriptions from the test file and replace them with the attribute descriptions from the train file. That may help.
3. You can also run Weka from the command line, e.g.
java weka.classifiers.IB1 -t train_file.arff -T test_file.arff -p 0
