She wouldn't tell me what she saw. I told her she was just scared. She laughed at me This flu that is going around is a bad one. I couldn't shake it for 5 days. The worst since the one I had in 1994. This one fired up my rheumatoid arthritis with a nasty flare up, I am still feeling it. I was ready to go into the doctor thinking I had pneumonia again, and then it broke! A truckload of Advil is the only thing that seems to break the inflammation for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBF Interesting. No wonder so many people are moving south. Did you know that there are more cows in Wyoming County than there are people? There is something like 53,000 cows and around 41,000 people - and that's not counting the people who should be counted as cows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 TIL IBM Had To Delete 'Urban Dictionary' Data from The Watson Super Computer System Because The Machine Started Cursing. CBF Watson couldn't distinguish between polite language and profanity -- which the Urban Dictionary is full of. Watson picked up some bad habits from reading Wikipedia as well. In tests it even used the word "bull ****" in an answer to a researcher's query. I'm surprised they deleted it. That's as close to passing a Turing Test as I've ever heard.
