Since Marcus hasn't answered, I think it's important that he pre-pended ML with "generative". There's plenty to argue about with respect to that word (e.g. my complaint that EricC _thinned_ relativism). But in my own work, I've made the somewhat hand-waving argument that mathematical models (e.g

You mean *very* interesting. 8^) Because it's a Spanish word, you might be right. But as Marcus' serialization glitch demonstrated, it may not be that simple. I tend to use very long pass phrases. And it never ceases to amaze me that whether I'll be able to type them right on the 1st try or the

Heh, "should" is a spectrum. 8^) I *should* drive the speed limit, too. But will I? No, probably not. I've had Penrose's "Cycles of Time" on my shelf, unread, for almost a decade, now. And Existential Psychotherapy would have to get in line behind that. On 11/13/19 10:58 AM, Frank Wimberly wro
