there’s a new construct NetExternalObject that allows you to run trained neural nets “from the wild” in the same integrated framework used for actual Wolfram-Language-specified neural nets. But for now, TerminatedEvaluation is an important construct for improving the “safety” of the system in the corner case of runaway computations.

It began partly as an empirical law, and partly as something abstractly constructed on the basis of the idea of molecules, that nobody at the time knew for sure existed. But what’s important for our purposes here is that in the setup Carnot constructed he basically ended up introducing the Second Law.

A lot of science—and technology—has been constructed specifically around computationally reducible phenomena. Once again, I had no idea this was “out there”, and certainly I would never have been able to construct it myself. There is, however, a subtlety here. Back in 1987—as part of building Version 1.0

be the primary measure of success in a course, and some measure of grace and flexibility will be included along with high standards and "rigor" And for other instructors, this concept raises more questions than answers. For some instructors, it provides hope that student growth will (finally!) A misplaced trust in statistics.

Its key idea is to think of things in the world as being constructed from some kind of simple-to-describe elements—say geometrical objects—and then to use something like logical reasoning to work out what will happen with them. It’s not difficult to construct multiway system models. There are multiway Turing machines.

He was going for what he saw as the big prize: using them to “construct the universe”. The next section is entitled “The Design of a Simulator”, and discusses how such hardware could be constructed, concluding that a 1000×1000×1000 3D grid of cells could be built for $50M (or nearly half a billion dollars today). It’s just my nature.

The Department of Education is a pretty new construct relatively speaking. This has been widely covered in the press so right at the start, the argument fizzles out. Translation: She has the same lack of experience as Obama’s primary Ed Secretary Arne Duncan. DeVos Tweeted she is ready to do just that.
