A really nice explanation of the chain rule.
The Chain Rule
Somehow I've spent the last hour or so creating Anki cards for definitions from graph theory. I suppose, as Harry Hogge said "there's worse things." 😀

I have now, a working - albeit incomplete - implementation of a Jena TDB backed BeliefBase for Jason Agent applications. So far it's working with storing arity-0 beliefs and loads those on startup. Higher arity beliefs are also persisted, but I haven't tested initial retrieval of those on startup. And the current impl doesn't yet guarantee consistent ordering of the embedded terms for higher arity beliefs.

@uexo - Yeah, if you're not already familiar with AgentSpeak and BDI agents, it would take a lot of explaining.
For me, it's cool because I think the BDI approach can be an important foundational piece of an approach to AGI. And chatting with the agent can be a way to educate and interact with it.
But building agents that you can send instructions to remotely via XMPP is interesting IMO, even if they're not AGI.
