Chad's Other Blog: Ethics and Intelligent Systems
http://blog.chadfrost.com/2011/04/ethics-and-intelligent-systems.html
Monday, April 25, 2011. Ethics and Intelligent Systems. This isn't by any means a new topic; Asimov codified it in his famous Three Laws. Back in 1942; and Wired ran an article. In 2005 that considered some of the broader ethical implications of introducing ever-more-humanoid machines into society. There now seems to be a burgeoning discussion on this topic, spread widely:. Illah Nourbakhsh's lecture (below) has spawned a CMU class: http:/ ethicsandrobotics.posterous.com/. View my complete profile. Water...

Chad's Other Blog: Suffering for the cause
http://blog.chadfrost.com/2011/05/suffering-for-cause.html
Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Suffering for the cause. Last week, the Amgen Tour of California bike race came through town. Last year, we went to watch the local stage, and despite the rain/drizzle/general wetness, had a fun time hanging out with friends and new acquaintances on the side of the road. We had such a fine time, in fact, that we figured we just *had* to do it again this year. My compromise: do both! We hung out for a while and enjoyed our lunch - Anna had packed quite the gourmet picnic. The li...

At this point, the driver of a Healdsburg City truck behind and to the right of me (in the right turn lane) said "That guy isn't doing you any favors, is he? So this guy, who is apparentl...

Friday, August 29, 2014. Raspberry Pi fun and games. While I continue to find good uses for Arduinos and such small microcontrollers, lately I've been playing around quite a bit with the Raspberry Pi. I got one last year, and fairly quickly set it up to be my surrogate Dropbox, using BTSync. It has been happily chugging along in that role ever since, connected to a small 100GB hard drive and living on my workbench in the garage. So, having downloaded and installed a plethora of software libraries on the ...
