		<description><![CDATA[Here is a bare-bone parser (parse_wn.jj) that reads WordNet 3.0 noun data set (dict/data.noun).
The parser is not perfect: when parsing the original data.noun file as unpacked from WordNet, it would fail at the entry &#8220;zero&#8221;. Similarly, it requires all words in the dictionary not start with &#8220;0&#8243; (which just happen to be the case). However, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, played with Amazon.com&#8217;s EC2 (Elastic Computing Cloud). Here is what I have learned:
1. EC2 is NOT Grid Computing. Many people are confused by the term &#8220;Cloud&#8221;, so was I. Bezos said it probably should be called &#8220;infrastructure cloud&#8221;.
2. Cost wise, EC2 is comparable to dedicated web hosting (EC2 cost calculator vs. my ISP&#8217;s dedicated server [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While researching at work, I ran into this &#8220;balletbot&#8221; story on Gizmodo. Later, I found the same video on YouTube:

There is something very unnerving but I haven&#8217;t figured out what it is yet.
Obviously, there are quite a few mismatches:

Couple of days ago, I wrote about how politics, as a social behavior, could be driven by physical desire and is not confined in human only. This article seems to have just de-constructed the mystical emotion called love. The article [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have seen/heard several reports on new discoveries of sophisticated social behaviors among animals. So sophisticated, one may say the beasts are playing &#8220;politics&#8221; (rhetorically, this is nothing new). For example, biologists found that some birds would willingly help a stronger individual of the same sex to attract a mate in order to get &#8220;promoted&#8221; [...]]]></description>
