Firefox is another name for the red panda, but the Firefox browser has always used foxes as logo/mascots. Before that it was called Phoenix, maybe that’s why they decided to just use another fire-related animal name without thinking about it too much.

That’s fucked up.

Also new, unsold books are frequently and in large amounts returned to the printer and recycled.

It’s one of the friendliest programming languages around. If you have written something in VBA then you’ll do fine with Python, except for all the bad/outdated nonsense you’ll have picked up from that language. And there’s interactive interpreters you can just mess around in.

If this doesn’t scare you then give it a look:

things = [4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42]
for number in things:
    print(number * 16)

64
128
240
256
368
672

There’s flowers blooming on the grave in the last panel.

I guess the idea is that yes, machine learning algorithms could be used to solve these, but that’s essentially brute forcing. You can make a simple algorithm learn how to complete Super Mario Bros or how to make a virtual robot walk, it just takes millions of iterations. The promised actual artificial intelligence wouldn’t need that.
