Oh yeah, I updated thing link to Brian's site, as his blog is no longer active, and to David's blog, as he changed the URL (and some of the layout stuff). So yeah, check out everyone's new spiffy stuff.
I'm going to get back to reading, which is what I was doing when I found the whole Turing thing. *sigh*
Alan Turing, one of the great pioneers of computer science (and, I might add, "The" great pioneer of Artificial Intelligence), and one of my all time favorite CS/AI role models... was gay. And committed suicide.
Don't you hate it when humanity butts in and tarnishes the pedestals you have so diligently put people on?
That being said, such things have little effect on how good a computer scientist you are (except the suicide thing... I mean, you can't make more discoveries after you're dead, right?)... And sometimes, it's nice to know that my imperfections shouldn't limit my success (at least to some extent).
At least the government isn't forcing me to take hormones because they think my lifestyle choice is a chemical imbalance. Sheesh.
