ex machina


what gender is your prose?

well, i guess i'll have to add Lingua::EN::Gender to my rather long list of things to check out:

"I discovered The Gender Genie from LaughingMeme, which led me to Moshe Koppel and Shlomo Argamon's algorithm, described in Nature and the New York Times Magazine. The Koppel-Argamon algorithm analyzes the text and guesses the author's gender. The algorithm was very simple, so I implemented it as a Perl module -- Lingua::EN::Gender."

i could imagine a few amusing and pointless applications that could benefit from guessing an author's gender. [ via laughingmeme ]

"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
