Would machines evolve on their own?
This is highly off topic but ...
While watching The Animatrix a philosophical question came into mind:
"Would intelligent machines evolve on their own given no outside input or would they just strive to sustain status quo?"
Any thoughts on this?
Simpycity
No, it's not the name of a game library for Python. The description from their Trac says it all:
"Simpycity is a simple mapping system for PostgreSQL stored procedures and queries, enabling easy usage of PG procedures using standard Python call semantics."
After reading Aurynn Shaw's recent blog entry about it I got very curious. The itches described in that entry looks a lot like mine.
Downloaded and played quickly with it but hasn't the time right now to really plunge into it. The idea is very tempting to me and I want to take part in pitching this. If it's as interesting and useful as I think it might be I probably will look into getting involved in it's development.
