Machine translation biggrin
Specifically, how to deal with special case words that have special translations in certain contexts... for example...
house -> maison, but
house of commons -> chambre des communes (literally, room of commons).
So, in this case, being followed by 'of commons' changes the translation.
Or...
Computer -> ordinateur
science-> science, but
Computer Science-> Informatique. So here it's the fact they're found together.

Hmm, the main piece of software I'm using (WEKA) comes from new zealand smile

aah you tagged me!

The quote is from the second book in Clive Barker's Abarat series, Days of Magic, Nights of War. It's really amazing, illustrated with a bunch of paintings he did, I highly recommend it.

I'm ok I suppose, just trying to get through things at the moment.

whiskey sour is a drink..sour bar mix and whiskey. pretty self-explanatory and damn delicious.

annd, I'm giving up wheat because I'm allergic to it. apparently. so far I'm just hungry all the time though.

relaxing is good indeed, darling. I'm jealous of three day weekends.

I stayed home saturday night, I didn't want to go out and be miserable, kubrick5 has dealt with me being sick under what should be awesome circumstances enough.

I'm feeling much better now though, which is awesome.
