Rm my Mac

I saw this page http://rm-my-mac.wideopenbsd.org/ which hands out free ssh accounts on a mac mini, for the purpose of hacking it. Not my favorite pastime, for sure, but I'm sure there are others interested out there.

Thesis: Opennlp and groovy..

Just wanted to write about what my thesis ended up being about: Question classification. No chatbot, no Loebner contest I'm afraid. Seems I will use Opennlp and java, but the problem is I hate Java, I find it way too slow to prototype in. So I decided to use groovy. This did not turn out well, it took me about a day to figure out that groovys error-messages are far from perfect, leaving me to believe that class loading was all broken in groovy.

Anyway, both groovy and opennlp seems like great projects. Ive also downloaded the Stanford parser, might be useful.
