Hey all,

http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/kwabena_boahen_on_a_computer_that_works_like_the_brain.html

I found a pretty high level talk about a the difficulties of modeling  
computers after the brain (bottlenecks in imperative designs versus  
functional network implementations). Obviously this is nothing all  
that new... Most trends suggest we should be switching to languages  
that are optimized to solve problems in a parallel manner but I still  
think the talk has some really interesting points. Hope you enjoy.

Sincerely,
- Michael E. Karpeles
