		<description><![CDATA[ When the music-streaming service Spotify became available in the States this July, many music buffs were elated. We’d heard about Spotify from European friends, who’ve had access for a few years. Some sneaky Americans even tricked their computers into believing they were overseas just so they could use the on-demand, anything/anytime service.

		<description><![CDATA[ SAN FRANCISCO — Computers, like humans, can learn. But when Google tries to fill in your search box based only on a few keystrokes, or your iPhone predicts words as you type a text message, it’s only a narrow mimicry of what the human brain is capable. The challenge in training a computer to behave like a human brain is technological and physiological, testing the limits of computer and brain science. But researchers from IBM Corp. say they’ve made a key step toward combining the two worlds. The company announced Thursday that it has built two prototype chips that it says process data more like how humans digest information than the chips that now power PCs and supercomputers.

		<description><![CDATA[ by Mark Bernstein Unnerved by an IBM publicity stunt pitting a computer program against a human "champion" in a television game show, the New York Times ran John Markoff's coverage of the contest beneath the headline, " A Fight to Win the Future: Computers vs. Humans ." Markoff is worried that natural language understanding will throw legions of workers out of work. Agricultural and industrial automation were one thing, but won't this new technology be the last straw? Of course it won't. We've experienced this anxiety before -- not just in the industrial revolution, but when we invented books and signage. We could employ people to stand on street corners and help people find their Aunt Martha's house. We don't do that anymore; we put up signs  and we teach everyone to read them. The Romans did this  too, though sometimes they made things tricky  for outsiders who would need to identify themselves and get help. Today, we have street names and systematic addresses and postal districts and zip codes -- Anthony Trollope  did a lot of the original work for this -- so now you can find Aunt Martha yourself, and so can her letter carrier. When books were invented, people worried a lot about the philosophers and tutors who would be out of work. Who needs a teacher when you can run down to the library  and look things up in Old Pliny? Medieval scholars worried that, if students were permitted to use books, they would confuse themselves and their classmates. They did; progress has its costs. Today, much thinking about thinking machines is muddied. We're accustomed to assume that anything that talks back to us is partly human. If a program asks its users whether it has done a good job, even computer scientists tend to give it higher scores than they report if someone else asks; we know the computer has no feelings to be hurt, but everyone wants to be polite. Chemists once thought there were two entirely different kinds of matter -- stuff from living things, which was "organic," and everything else, which was "inorganic." This idea was called vitalism and nobody believes it anymore -- except when it comes to machine thinking. Markoff does make a nice point about two strands of computer research: artificial intelligence, epitomized by John McCarthy , and tool-making, epitomized by Doug Engelbart . But Engelbart's goal of "designing a computing system that would instead 'bootstrap' the human intelligence of small groups of scientists and engineers" was always a personal vision, and I think most of Engelbart's followers and supporters have always edited out that embarrassing word "small." Why not help everyone? We've made machines that answer questions for a very long time. We need better ways to get answers and better answers. When we decided that it was self-evident that all men are created equal, lots of people were worried: Won't this be the end of civilized life? Who will make dinner and clean up the mess? I think we can manage. <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://heave-ho.org/2011/02/18/dont-hail-our-computer-overlords-just-yet/' addthis:title='Don&#8217;t Hail Our Computer Overlords Just Yet ' ><a href="//addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&#38;username=xa-4d2b47597ad291fb" class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">&#124;</span><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Long before Google, Facebook, and Twitter, and long before we were constantly tied to our computers, the Internet was a much more confusing idea. "Can you explain what 'Internet' is?" a much-younger Katic Couric asked Bryant Gumbel in a 1994 episode of the Today Show shown in this clip that Buzzfeed resurrected. Gumbel had no idea. Trying to puzzle over an email address: "I wasn't prepared to translate that. That little mark -- the a with the little ring around it?" Gumbel asked. "What do you write to it, like mail?" Eventually, the two turn to someone off-screen, a production assistant perhaps, who explains that the Internet is a giant network of computers that anybody can tie in to and access. It's unclear on what day this show aired, but it may have been sparked by a July 25, 1994, Time magazine cover, "The Strange New World of the Internet: Battle on the Frontiers of Cyberspace" (seen at right). <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://heave-ho.org/2011/01/29/video-of-the-day-katie-couric-tries-to-figure-out-the-internet/' addthis:title='Video of the Day: Katie Couric Tries to Figure Out the Internet ' ><a href="//addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&#38;username=xa-4d2b47597ad291fb" class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">&#124;</span><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a></div>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ So, you want to learn how to be an Internet detective, huh, kid? You could do worse than starting with Charles Arthur's attempt to ascertain the identity of the person who hacked Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook page. His step-by-step account of his investigation is a model for this kind of thing. It might not be as fun as staking out a house in a beat up Lincoln, but this is sleuthing for our times. In other words: this might be someone in the military. Most likely those edits don't come from one person - they come from all sorts of people in the Williamsburg location. Or, just as possible, it was someone who had hacked into the computers there from outside (not as difficult as you'd hope it would be) and is using them as a proxy to make the Wikipedia edit, and, quite possibly, hack Zuckerberg's page. (We've asked Facebook whether Zuckerberg's page was accessed from that IP, but haven't had an answer yet.)

		<description><![CDATA[ Meet the new Atlantic reader. It's the result of our holiday Photoshop contest in which we invited you all to play with a paper doll advertisement that we'd run in 1988. That ad had posited a very specific vision of an Atlantic reader. Though it noted he could dressed "in a custom tailored suit and handcrafted shoes" or "bermuda shorts, sandals, and nosecoat," the idea of our readership it presented felt limited. Most obviously, the paper doll model (above left) was a strong-jawed white guy with a mid-80s preppy look. Several of the entries that we received took that problem on directly, using the available doll clothes to include the broad range of people who read our publication. The best of those came from our eventual winner, Callie Porter-Borden. " I've made the Atlantic Reader a little more gender-ambiguous, because ladies love the Atlantic , too, and so do less burly men!" Porter-Borden said. "I'm all for fitness, but I figure a lot of Atlantic readers spend so much time in front of their computers and reading that they probably don't have quite as much time to maintain that strapping physique." Her Photoshopping was impressively subtle. It took me a while of staring at the old and new dolls before I could figure out all of the little changes she'd made. (See, for example, the way she changed the haircut, thickened the thighs , and moved the doll's waist lower.) So, thank you to all the entries we received. We know it was a silly little contest, but we hope you had fun remembering 80s fashion and mores. <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://heave-ho.org/2011/01/04/the-winner-of-the-atlantic-reader-photoshop-contest/' addthis:title='The Winner of the Atlantic Reader Photoshop Contest ' ><a href="//addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&#38;username=xa-4d2b47597ad291fb" class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a><span class="addthis_separator">&#124;</span><a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a><a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a></div>]]></description>
