(Български - виж по-долу)No, it's not about the browser... :)"Firefox" is a 1982 movie by Clint Eastwood, where he is the director and the star.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083943/Clint is an american pilot who steals an advanced Soviet aircraft, which is controlled by thought.The pilot must think in Russian, or he will be caught...I've seen it maybe about 15 years ago, but I clearly remember this point of thought-control, remember that the aircraft was sexy and that the special FX looked fine to me... Cool movie!Do you also...

BRUTUS.1 the storytelling machine - preview of my review
BRUTUS is a literary creativity computational architecture, developed by S. Bringsjord and D. Ferrucci. The architecture is even patented. BRUTUS.1 is its implementation.In brief, I researched about the system and was disappointed to see that actually it is very far from creativity, at least in my view. The book about Brutus fall into endless discussion about first-order logic and questions about "what is betrayal", defined in first-order logic... The example of story generation about betrayal, the promoted expertise of Brutus.1,...
Защо има флагчета на ъглите на футболните игрища? | Why there are flags on the corners of the soccer fields?
In English (Below)Както гледах един мач, и топката щеше да отиде на границата между тъч и корнер, ми просветна...Представете си какво щеше да има, ако топката минеше точно през ъгъла?Половин тъч, половин корнер? Когато има колче, топката или се отбива в него и се връща обратно в игра за да избегне неопределеното положение, или пък се отклонява или в тъч, или в корнер.Why there are flags on the corners of the soccer fields?I was watching...

Глас 2004 - синтезатор на българска реч | Glas 2004 - Bulgarian Text To Speech Synthesizer
Glas 2004 is а formant Bulgarian Text To Speech Synthesizer, created by Todor Arnaudov in 2004.
Projects for future versions Glas 2 and Glas 3 are mentioned.
Глас е синтезатор на реч ("говореща програма"), който разработвах експресно през април 2004 г.
Много ми вървеше работата по онова време, имах и много идеи за подобрения, но страстта ми се поизчерпа и ме затрупаха други грижи.

What is better for a multi-effects guitar processor's display - numbers or names?
Actually it's a more general question about Human-Computer Interaction, where user is able to browse sequential options with only two buttons (up-down) and there are two indications of current state. One is a display, and the other is for example different sound (or a timbre) for different states. However, user can recognize the state by the sound, but of course this is much slower than visual recognition.The discussion is what is more...
