The Simulation Argument and Christianity - (USA)
Nick Bostrom, Department of Philosophy, Oxford University has written an interesting paper, Are You Living in a Computer Simulation . This paper argues that at least one of the following propositions is true: (1) the human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a “posthuman” stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or variations thereof); (3) we are almost certainly living in a compu

SEO Blogger and Search Engine Optimisation Consultant Alex Chudnovsky from Majestic SEO, An Intervie - (USA)
What was your first experience of search engines? It’s difficult to remember when I started using search engines, it must have been sometime around late 1996 when I first joined the Web revolution. I remember vaguely switching to Google at about year 2001 and never leaving it since other than for testing or niche searches. I started programming first serious search engine in 2002 for the company I worked for that needed to search faster through around 300k products. That’s when I got hooked

Financial 'Huff Duff' - Costs and Benefits - (USA)
Craig Pirrong submits: In the Second World War, the UK and US used “Huff-Duff” – high frequency direction finding – to determine the location of U-boats by triangulating their radio signals. In modern finance, “high frequency” is all about high frequency trading, but it is a form of Huff Duff; high frequency traders are attempting to determine the direction of prices by homing in on signals present in high frequency financial price data. Financial Huff-Duff, or “HFT,” for “High Frequency T

The computer, once a tool for scientists, is becoming a collaborator - (USA)
Computer science — it’s not just about hardware and software anymore. It’s about oceans, stars, cancer cells, proteins and networks of friends. Ken Birman, a computer science professor at Cornell University, says his discipline is on the way to becoming “the universal science,” a framework underpinning all others, including the social sciences. An extravagant claim from someone with a vested interest? The essence of Birman’s assertion is that computers have gone from being a tool serving scie

Will U.S. Public Schools survive Government? - (USA)
As a teacher for 25 yeas in the nation’s second largest school district, Los Angeles Unified (LAUSD), I find myself increasingly isolated in defending public education to my conservative and even liberal friends. Unlike many of them, I continue to appreciate the fact that public schools in the U.S. are already in place, at a huge investment, and that they help millions of children, many more than they hurt; I must say, however, that as the years have passed, government, with the help of teache

Is Google Evil? - (USA)
Here’s a nice discussion from the New York Times’ Bits Blog—and a debate held this week by Intelligence Squared US. The arguments, naturally, centered around Google’s purported motto: “Don’t be evil.” Everything from corporate identity to workplace policies to business behavior was fair game. The Bits summary of the arguments included seven deadly sins of Google and eight of its virtues (both of which I hope were delivered tongue-in-cheek). Sins, complete with Latin, from Siva Vaidhyanathan, a

Could Real Time Information Be An Unfair Advantage? Tuesday, August 4th, 2009 by Steven 0 Add a CommentThe US Securities and Exchange Commission is considering a ban on a stock market practice known as “flash trading,” where supercomputers get access to information milliseconds before other traders and can rapidly buy and sell in ways that are argued to influence the market unfairly – thus discouraging mere mortals from participating.

The development of the news coverage of high-frequency trading has been quite interesting.
