Artificial intelligence
Posted on 11.04.2009 20:55 in Buzz402 views, 11 comment(s) , add a commentArtificial intelligence has grown a lot past years. While looking for some AI issues for one of my projects, I found a chat bot that can answer questions. The program uses PHP and MySQL. I spent nearly 10 minutes talking to bot and trying to confuse it. Questions varies a lot from simple to quite sophisticated. I almost failed. So I decided to write a final statement and give up. But this was the statement where the bot choked...

Latvia forbids YouTube embedding
Posted on 31.03.2009 11:33 in Buzz369 views, 5 comment(s) , add a commentOne of the Latvian ministry of culture, Guntis Jekabsons, officially confirmed that embedding YouTube videos on web sites is illegal and will be prosecuted in Latvia as a violation of copyright if the author did not give his explicit permission about publishing that work on sites. So now bloggers in Latvia have to have an official proof that the author allowed publishing his work on web sites before embedding videos.

Looking for the Google Analytic advice
Posted on 27.03.2009 21:13 in Buzz356 views, 7 comment(s) , add a commentWhat can cause the behaviour shown on the image below? On the day when statistics changed, we deployed a newer version of one application. It is different from the previous version very little: the new version shows confrmations and messages as JavaScript pop ups, while the old version showed them using a separate page for each such message. It should not cause such a big change in Analytics, should it?
Does anyone have any idea why this change happened?
