thread_title:  In-q-tel and BBN? 

message: My mind is a little fuzzy, but I helped this firm do a move of H.Q. in the early 2000s almost 20 years now. They *were* located @ 10 Fawcett Street at the time, in the building now housing the Social Security Administration (but they were on the upper most floors of that building.)
The location housing the laundromat I believe??? was across the street from this in a VERY non-descript building that you can see from the bus stop on Concord Avenue.  There was a plaque or marker or something on the side of that building, or ground or something that said something about ARPANET but I cannot now remember where that was on the building.
In terms of where they were moving, they were going *TO* multiple buildings on Moulton Street but not so much to the high-rise part at the corner.  That was part of the compound still, you enter there but you had to walk long halls to get down to the part where they were located.  The corner was Verizon's xDSL Central Office etc. and later I believe was spun off as Level 3 Communications and later "Genuity".  BBN employees mainly went into empty offices further down Moulton Street near #50 etc. CaribDigita (talk) 09:05, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

message: The identification of Elias with Helios seems probalbe, but has to be backed by reliable sources. Notice that Ἥλιος = Helios has a spiritus asper (meaning that the /h/ was pronounced), whereas Ἠλίας = Elias has a spiritus lenis.

message: Over the years of existece of this article, there have been many edits, mostly by anonymous editors, to remove any connection betseen "Elias" anad "Elijah" or "Elijahu". This has been recurrenly done in the previous two months by 108.6.177.184 , 71.183.45.196 , 205.157.206.29 , 74.101.165.59  (the latter starting 7 Mat 2011). These edits are most probably done by editors of Mormon faith. No explanation has ever been given at the discussion page.

Talk:Kronan (ship)

message: Shouldnt the title be Regalskeppet Kronan? --Dahlis 17:25, 2005 August 30 (UTC)
-Why? Regalskepp is just what it was. The page on HMS Victory isn't labelled "Ship-of-the-line Victory" for example.
But the HMS Victory page is named exactly that, "HMS Victory". The name "Regalskeppet Kronan" would follow the same convention. (And yes, I know that this contradicts wiki guidelines, but these are very US-centric.)
:Yes, but HMS is a prefix; "regalskeppet" is not. Equivalent to "Regalskappet Kronan" would be "Ship-of-the-line HMS Victory".
::This seems to be a rather widespread misunderstanding, especially among Swedish contributors, but regalskepp (lit. "regal ship") is not a specific type of ship, but rather a very specific kind of classification. The closest equivalent would be the first-rate ship within the rating system of the Royal Navy. Of what I've understood of ship construction, most regalskepp built in the 17th century would probably be best described as being a transitional design between a galleon and a ship of the line.

thread_title:  paradox of backward induction 

message: The prisoner assumes her jailers are telling the truth in a completely precise way.
The actual meaning of their words are, "you will have no information about which day you will be executed on, until you find that you are alive at the end of a day."
The only way for the wording to be precisely correct is if there is a chance she will not be executed at all, or that the execution will be delayed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.26.192.159 (talk) 22:00, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unexpected Hanging paradox 

message: In the "prologue" of the page it is written:
In game theory, backward induction was first employed by John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern in their Theory of Games and Economic Behavior (1944). [1]
The reference quoted mentions vN and M, here:
Others claim he used a method of proof, known as 'backwards induction' that was not employed until 1953, by von Neumann and Morgenstern.
I am quite suspicious about this reference: 1953 is just the date of the 3rd edition of the book by vN and M, while it is the year in which it appeared the proof of the Kuhn's theorem which guarantees that finite games with perfect information have a Nash equilibrium in pure strategies. And the proof is based on backward induction.
I would like to see some more reliable attribution of backward induction to vN and M (quoting page or chapter of some edition of the book). --Fioravante Patrone en (talk) 06:38, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: checked. The reference is OK. Not only von Neumann and Morgenstern use induction for perfect information games (even if restricted to the zero-sum case) in pages 111 and ff. They even say: "can be used to work backwards" in page 116. I refer to the original 1944 edition of the book. --93.36.224.108 (talk) 02:44, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Werdnawerdna (talk) 00:26, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Family and personal life

message: I just listened to Jo Caulfield on 'My Teenage Diary' on BBC Radio 4. According to this page (until I corrected it), it is claimed that she was born 26 September 1966. According to Ancestry.co.uk, the only person born anywhere near that year was a Josephine S Caulfield, who was born Sep-Dec 1963 in the St Asaph registration district (now Denbighshire, north Wales), whose mother's maiden name was 'McAfee'. On the radio show, it claims that she moved to London in 1984 during the Miners' Strike, and she read extracts her diary this stating that she was 17 at the time (whereas she would have been 20/21). On 192.com, she is on the electoral register living in London N3 with her husband Kevin Anderson from 2002-2005, giving her middle initial as 'S', further corroborating (or at least not contradicting), that the Josephine S Caulfield in the birth index is her. Furthermore, on the bio section of her own website, she claims that she moved to London aged 17. Obviously, I have far too much time on my hands, but I'm curious to know why she would want to fabricate this. Maybe she thinks moving to London aged 20 isn't quite as thrilling and glamorous as aged 17. Maybe she just wants us to think she is 3 years younger than she is?

Talk:WinCustomize

message: Other than criticisms, most of the other portions of the article are written by a Stardock employee which may introduce bias.  I feel many other Stardock related articles themselves may be biased due to the main author being a Stardock employee himself.  It is unusual for an employee of a company to be involved in the writing of Wikipedia articles about their company.  konfab user 2:50, 31 August 2005
:I wrote the articles, on my own time, because I felt I was one of the best people to do so, having over five years experience with Stardock's products. I'm the majority contributor to the Creatures Wiki and founder and chief admin of WikiFur, both highly successful Wikicities, so I know how to write a good article. They could possibly be biased - although I've made efforts to include "the other side of the story" where there is one, and I notice you didn't actually point any bias out :-) - but most of the stuff I've written is easily verifiable, as I try to to include links to relevant sources with it. Realistically, the people who know the most about Stardock and its products work at, for, or with Stardock, and it would be a shame if we were barred from adding to Wikipedia's storehouse of knowledge because of that fact.
:The reason I didn't write about the WinCustomize forums and admins here was not because I felt they reflected badly on WinCustomize (because I don't), but because I didn't really consider them to be notable enough for Wikipedia. I mean, I'm sure the forums are important to people involved in them right now, but ten years from now, or a hundred, who's going to care? :-) Things like Object Desktop are significant in a way that forums rarely are, due to their transitory nature.
