Machine learning systems are built from both code and data. It's easy to reuse the code but hard to reuse the data, so building AI mostly means doing annotation. This is good, because the examples are how you program the behaviour – the learner itself is really just a compiler. What's not good is the current…
Everyone should be able to read the law, discuss it, and share it with others, without having to pay a toll or sign a contract. Seems obvious, right?

Lexmark International, is on appeal from the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, who last year affirmed...
Short introduction to the Prolog language and its essential features.
If you’d asked me a only few months ago if there’ll ever be a printed version of Writing An Interpreter In Go I’d responded with a “Huh, uummm, well, I don’t know. Maybe. Maybe if I’ll find the time and if there’s any interest.”

Or at least, your employer might be. Over the years we in the tech sector have gotten used to being well-regarded. After all, we make people’s lives better, on balance. That’s changing.
