OPINION | HISTORY UNDERFOOT: Origin of Burns Park's ... (Arkansas Online)

Let's call this the tale of the traveling timbers. Log cabin timbers. Specifically, those of the Heilman Cabin, the one-room log structure in North Little ...

He made a raft of them and floated them down the river to his farmland." Erected in 1936 by the National Society United States Daughters of 1812, the marker is a tribute to Miller, a hero of the War of 1812. Today, friends, that's in the city of Maumelle, and as the crow flies, not far from that marker at Palarm Creek Park. This statement gave me pause: "This marker is erected near the site of his home on Crystal Hill." Whatever the case, a puzzling aspect of this story comes from references to Miller's home being at Crystal Hill. The cabin was dismantled and reassembled in Burns Park. Eubank wrote that he came to the States with his parents and two brothers, settling in Louisville, Ky. He opened a store that sold candy, cigars and tobacco and continued to work as a farmer and a cabinetmaker. A marker next to the doorway tells us Heilman built the cabin about 1849. Heilman's is the first entry in the collection. That's possible, given the ravages of time and the prospect of vandalism. I've also spent some time cruising around the northern part of the county trying to figure out confusing references to Crystal Hill, but the research has led to satisfying tidbits about the state's history and geography.

9to5Google Log Out: It's a shame that 'AI' is losing its sci-fi definition (9to5Google)

As a science fiction fan, artificial intelligence has always meant computers, robots, etc. that can think, with the “artificial” in the name qualifying that ...

I just regret that the term AI is no longer being reserved for what I think perfectly describes a worthy and ambitious goal of technology and computer science. However, they don’t actually think, reason, or even know (what’s real) compared to a human. As such, “AI” serves as a marketing shorthand to say a company or product is invested in cutting edge technology. Getting across these concepts to end users is not an easy task. In this modern era, everything is said to be powered by AI. I would say that most people tangentially shared this definition as well until recent years.
