No answer in the article. Oh well.

I sure hope they start rolling the recording devices well before any collisions at the particle accelerators - so they can catch any high energy particles zooming off before the collision.

I'll bet you could open the grippers fully and recalibrate on power up.

No mention of nuking the poles.

I don't see fly-by-fiber getting very popular. The only goal is anti-jamming. But if the drone was fully autonomous, there would be no signals to jam. And the fully autonomous drones are coming fast. Meta's SAM 2 can follow pret

Is this why Illinois made it illegal too? For a nice big payout?

A large disc of lead or steel. With thrusters to position properly. Or multiple discs that spread out like flower petals.

He used human tracheal cells, not lung cells. "Because they are one of the few tissues in the body that have motile cilia."[0] So they can move around. [0] https://twitter.com/drmichaellevin/status/173042

ESA finally using nuclear power? Hallelujah. They actually learned from the mistake of Rosetta's Philae landing in the shade on Comet 67P, where its solar panels couldn't produce any power and it died humiliatingly.

Not a big fan? It could be provably private. You could have a kit with a random username/password. It could be done. People just have a bad taste from 23andMe.

We are still early. Eventually you'll be able to change your race, gender, add reptile eyes, regrow limbs etc. Has to start somewhere. Need more data.

Imagine an AI learning from photos/videos of a person and their DNA sequence? And also a list of diseases, health records, etc. Then asking it for predictions while giving it feedback afterwards so it can tune itself. You could eve

Well hopefully it's trained on genetic DNA sequences and not Reddit threads. If so, it should do pretty well predicting the next sequence given previous sequences. There are probably all sorts of undiscovered patterns.

Neither X-ray nor x-ray fluorescence (XRF) is going to be able to scan large objects properly for gold from a distance. XRF machines only show the surface or slightly below the surface. If you put gold inside a lead pipe - no chance. If t

He decoded everything, but he didn't actually open a car door. He still has to defeat the rolling code. It's not like you can add 1 to it and resend it. From the outside world, the next rolling code should appear random.

I cannot for the life of me understand how you look at the cosmic background radiation - which appears equally in every direction you look, for as far away as you can see - and say this is evidence of a "big bang", originating fro

It's funny, Altium was the underdog for years. Only as they continually improved did they slowly gain market share. The tools need to work consistently, just like the tools of a carpenter. If his hammer head keeps falling off, it&#x27

I don't see how it's possible to beat companies like Altium that have been continually improving the sch and pcb design experience for the last 30 years. The AI is a cool idea. Maybe as an add-on? An import? A library? Collabo

Digikey has made Ultra Librarian famous. I wouldn't be surprised if they were connected somehow. About 80% of Digikey components have models. About 80% of those are Ultra Librarian models. About 95% of the models are correct, which
