In computer science we often have to take a real life scenario and translate it into cold machine logic. For the diciest situations, we invented things like fuzzy logic, and so-called Artificial Intelligence algorithms. These terms obscure how little progress has been made in this field. The ability to mimic or reproduce the human brain, [...]

A lot of new laptops come with fingerprint readers. They let you authenticate without a password not only to logon to your machine, but also to websites like gmail, hotmail, etc… My sister Mona got such a laptop, a Sony Vaio, and I was setting it up for her.

Induction:
(knock on room door)
*I open the door to find our maid holding something in her hand*
*Maid Hands over a 50JDs ($70) banknote along with a USB flashdisk*
Maid: Sir, I found this in your pants, It’s still wet!

Hani Obaid : Hmmmmm what ?
Wa3d : hmmmm....
Wa3d : I came back coz I forgot to say thank you and u already answered lol
Hani Obaid : So it wasn't possible in September. Now, you have to try it to find out!
Wa3d : so it isn't possible?! ** GRIN**
Hani Obaid : Wa3d, I've never tried it, but on searching I found people complaining that it isn't possible. See «link»
Wa3d : Hani , My turn to ask you ,or any1 who knows. If I opened my blog to invited readers only would those who have me on their google reader still see my new posts ?
KJ : Of course I am insecure! You think if I were secure I'd end up like this? :D
Wa3d : u might be wise afterall since u know that u are insecure without having me pointing it out ! :P
KJ : Of course it will. Making fun of people makes me feel good about my own insecurities :(
Hani Obaid : Wa3d, I think it'll make KJ feel better!
Wa3d : Hani: why are u so keen on us being dissed by the moogle?!!
Wa3d : a wise man says so little because words are mere utterences , they are not the real thing! u blabbered about 4 lines and hence u're not wisdomous at all!
Hani Obaid : KJ, I keep hearing Moogle is going to write this, and then Moogle is going to write that, and nothing. Moogle is all talk :P
KJ : Hani, I am inclobberable
KJ : wa3d, that's a paradox... if you say a wise person is one who admits he/she knows little, then it makes them wise... I only said I am wisdomous, hence I simply conformed to your sentence by implying I know very little
Hani Obaid : KJ, you're getting clobbered out there!
Wa3d : wisdom is knowing that u know so little and since u bragged about being wisdomous I'll revoke the privilege I bestowed upon ur sad ignorant soul !
KJ : yes i am pretty wisdomous
Hani Obaid : Yay! I'm so glad you didn't throw yourself from a window, really!
Wa3d : I've been trying to comment bs I'll refrain coz ma bde KJ yfker enu um repeating some of his wisdom lol
Wa3d : i am back :D
Hani Obaid : Now you better come back!
Wa3d : YaaaaY a new post !! will read it after I get back from my exam ! if I didn't come back it means ramet 7ali men el shbak w 5leset!!
Wa3d : HUH ! Ysa7elak aslan to listen to me!
KJ : me listen to wa3d? wait lemme call satan to ask if hell froze over :P
Hani Obaid : KJ, I just ruined my MX518s scroll by trying to clean it. My only advice is get Logitech, optical (not laser) wired (not wireless) mouse that you're comfortable with. Don't spend too much money coz it can become a paperweight just like that. I trust you to buy the right mouse without advice, and you should listen to wa3d :P
Hani Obaid : Wa3d Wa3d Wa3d. I hope you did well on your exam. B3eed il-shar 3alayna kulna from those diseases. Blabber as much as you want khalto :P I don't drink coffee or tea!
KJ : and yes I am old enough to buy my own mouse but I am not old enough to handle the consequences :P
KJ : plus even if he is busy, he should reply to me. I demand it :P
KJ : am not taking advantage of him :P he should feel privelage that I seek his advice, which renders him a valuable and trusted resource of information :P
Wa3d : b3den u're old enough to buy ur own mouse la7alak lol
Wa3d : u keep taking advantage of him ! he's probably busy
Wa3d : give the guy a break !
