11/26/2002 Entry: "Saint Ada's Day"

Happy upcoming Saint Ada's Day.
Tomorrow's the 150th anniversary of her death, but I'm traveling tomorrow, so the party's today.

I'm celebrating with a link to the Judith Halberstam paper "Automating Gender: Postmodern Feminism in the Age of the Intelligent Machine". IMHO, the paper falls short of it's title. There's a good paragraph or two right after she finishes the Turing Test primer, but before she falls into the obvious Turing Trap. After that it spirals into postmodern shop talk.

Dancing is to the tune of Girls just wanna defun.
