True. Any benefit will be statistical in nature. Blue light is known to have long term detrimental effects on eye sight and that would not be seen for many years of use. The human circadian clock is also tied to blue light entering the eye so the lack of or better sleep could have long term effects that would only be realized by analyzing data of many people over a long period of time. Would people wearing yellow lenses make better workers because they get more sleep, or would they be late to work more often because they sleep in more often? Statistics. Your not going to know the answer to that for at least a few years

AI requires massively parallel computation in order to process many equations in a short amount of time. Each equation being run is trying to answer a single question, but done in parallel in a GPU like chip it can process lots of very simple data into a massive amount of information that gives the AI a way to analyze the data to achieve its goal.

Quantum technology on the other hand is filtering a massive amount of data to determine the singular answer to a single question in a way the conventional computers would take years to find that single answer to the one question that was asked of it. Like searching for an encryption key, or a minima to a complex equation. One answer.

To combine the two together you would need a single chip with a massive number of Quantum Computers in order to get the billions of answers required for AI to function. We currently have a problem getting even one Quantum Computer to work, and here we need thousands? Sorry, not going to happen until a new technology is discovered.

Even then, Quantum computers currently need to run its single computation over and over again just to verify that the answer it got was not due to some decoherence problem in the circuit. Running the same computation in parallel is required just to see if your answer was correct. Yes, they are working on error correction circuits but this is still in its infancy, and your are not going to have Cerebras chip of Quantum Computers any time soon. I'm not saying it won't happen, but we need new technological discoveries before this can ever happen. Not in my lifetime.

You just need a good enough superconducting magnet. This has been done with frogs before, and in this case, its exactly the same thing.

This would likely be only usable for temporary storage as the stored energy potential would leak due to the conductivity of water plus natural salts and impurities in the concrete mix. Could it store energy from your solar panels for nighttime use? Sure, but its not going to last very long due to leakage. Drier climates would likely be better.

Anyone buying a name brand product like Ray-Ban is looking to stand out in some way. Adding a camera instantly invades everyone's privacy that gets near you so rather than being attracted to your personality and style they are instead looking for the shadows when you walk into the room. You get exactly the opposite of wearing the latest Polo shirt or fancy Chick-Magnet styles. Nobody wants to be around you.

1) How do they deal with the stresses caused by the changing air pressure and vibration from the passing trains? The sudden burst of wind of a passing train is likely to rip a solar panel off its mounts or cause the panel to continually flex and vibrate with each passing train. The solar panels will need to be physically stronger than your average panel.

2) How do they deal with snow build up on the panels? Are they relying on #1 above to clear the snow?

All DeepFakes should be digitally signed by the software user/author and their Digital ID registered. Why? When a DeepFake is being passed off as a non-DeepFake it can actually do significant harm. In fact this will soon become a major problem in society and needs to be controlled somehow while simultaneously protecting Free Speech.

Essentially all images and video should be signed so that the "authenticity" of the source can be verified by its signature metadata and to digitally offer proof that the image was unmodified whenever added to a valid news story. The digital ID can be registered anonymously on the block chain and the validation certificate can then be used to block DeepFakes that are being passed off as real stories. Identities of anonymous certificate holders will be protected and any unregistered/unlabled fakes can then be filtered by those sites that actually care about the Truth. Those that don't care might never get indexed and therefor it will eventually minimize the damage incurred from fakes. Every users browser could instantly validate any image/video being viewed as authenticated or not, so the Truth will be known by the reader of that page at the very moment they are reading the article.

This is a time where the Journalists need to sit down and thoughtfully design such a system before too much damage is done. This digital ID system will also ensure that those people taking these (real) photographs actually get their due credit for their work and thus stealing copyrighted images will become a thing of the past while the chain of custody can be traced to its source when registered by a professional content producer. Those content producers of DeepFakes will also benefit if they choose to register their ID. Derivative works or syndication would have the chain of custody so that the content producer can get their proper credit. Articles/sites which publish unvalidated images will gradually loose readership from those who care about reading what is true, and can even block any content that is not. Something as simple as the browser putting a red frame around any unvaliidated images could put significant pressure on news sites to ensure all newsworthy articles can be properly validated. The person that registers an image with their ID that is proven to be a DeepFake stands the risk of being blocked by search engines and everyone's browser having this feature enabled. Nobody is prevented from reading content not publishing it, but the source ID can be blocked universally bu a block list if they continually abuse the system. The reader or publisher gets to choose the blocklist if any.

The Exynos 990 chipset is not listed as vulnerable. The 980 (older chipset?) is as well as newer chipsets are listed, which makes me wonder. The S20/+ had its own vulnerabilities patched back in 2020, so maybe that is the difference. I would still keep an eye out for new products being listed as more testing happens. There are still some vulnerabilities that have not been disclosed because the patches are still being worked on.

Infinitely large. Due to time dilation within its own reference frame the photon has no sense of time, thus it can travel an infinite/arbitrary distance in zero of its own time. The photon arrives at its destination as soon as it leaves the source, according to its own clock. While the photon is doing this journey YOU are ageing, but not the photon. This is why the speed of light 'C' actually has a limit, because it arrives at its destination in zero time. To arrive earlier it would have to have left earlier because you going backward in time would be required and that is not possible. The photon does not have the ability to age you backwards. Think about that for a while!

Nothing can travel faster than zero time, hence there is a hard limit to the speed of light. How it's journey measures in time to you is entirely dependent on your own reference frames clock. The photon is unchanged by your measurement other than the fact that it was absorbed by your sensor to get that measurement. Its speed within its own zero time reference is unaffected by the motion if your sensor (towards or away) but your sense of absorbed energy (frequency of light) will change within your own reference frame with moving towards or away as the photon is absorbed. Its your own kinetic energy that actually shifts the frequency of light of your sensor.

No, It can not be absorbed in multiple places at once, though prior (by your clock) to that absorption the field can exist in multiple places at once before that absorption event. The electromagnetic field can only be absorbed in one location and this is the reason that a photon has been thought of as a particle. It is neither a particle nor a wave but still it can only be absorbed in one place. The photon field itself exists everywhere along the path between the source and the destination simultaneously, during the entire flight of the photon by your clock, and while you are ageing, the photon is not. Your sense of time is based on your own thermodynamic change that occurs before the photon is absorbed and registers on your instrument, within your own personal reference frame. To the photon this journey was instantaneous, and you were the only one aging during that experiment.

You need to understand that all reference frames are completely separate and the personal clocks of each reference frame do not connect except when and where the two reference frames physically interact. Outside of that single instant the personal clocks will never agree.

If you think you have a paradox, any paradox (QM, SR, GR, etc), then you are thinking about the problem incorrectly. Its the misunderstanding of Time that leads to most of these problems. So, it's the first problem you need to master for anything else to make sense.

Backward in time causality is not only not necessary, it is even impossible, once you have the right definition of Time. If you understand Time you will understand why we even have a speed of light, and Time simply does not work the way you instinctively think it does, and that is the problem. It is not like a clock, and with the right fundamental understanding of Thermodynamics/Time then all the spooky paradoxes simply go away, gravity can be understood as a physical process with full accounting of the energy flow, and it need not even be quantized.

My wife likes to have music playing 24x7 and she is very particular about her music. I have tried to set up a few old devices (old Samsung phone, iPod, iPad, etc) connected to the Bose system but either their App won't install on an older device or it just stops after not having enough user interaction. We don't want to use a service where we have to play with the UI every few hours just to keep it streaming music. Now they want to add all kinds of cruft to the play list that we don't want. Sorry Spotify, its not happening here. Find somebody else to spam.

We all know that learning from your mistakes is something that is so distasteful in the modern political society. Good thing we have Fake News to keep what few brain cells we have active enough. /s

This would not fit the narrative. It was highly directional and some experienced it in D.C. on the steps right outside their building in a protected area. Numerous people in a wide variety of places.

The thing is I could create such a device in my basement without any high tech equipment. Making it highly directional in a compact form would take some financing but the the technology is fairly easy. The hard part is having enough power to drive the transducers necessary to produce pain and nausea rather than just simple audio signals. You simply create a focused beam of microwaves modulated by other frequencies until you find a mix that has the desired effect. Any sound experienced by the individual is actually generated in their own head where the frequencies mix and are down converted into frequencies that no longer pass through bone and flesh.

A commercial example of this technology, but far too under powered for this particular purpose: https://www.holosonics.com/pro...
I have felt this myself. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt it would be quite painful if the power had been turned up.

The problem with this plan is the mine was actually mining something to begin with or it would not be there. What they are mining is most likely a heavy metal or has heavy metals dissolved in the affluent waste water used for processing the product. This waste water has been described as battery acid filling up these open mining pits. If you attempt to put this water in the ocean you will be poisoning the entire food chain in much the same way that mercury is already doing.

But if you find fairly pure carbonate rocks, without the heavy metals, it will combine with the CO2 and just settle to the bottom of the ocean fairly inert. There was a paper on this about two weeks ago. The problem is you will likely need to generate even more CO2 to mine it, so that you can move it (more CO2), to where you can use it. You might break even.

Somebody thinks that creating a giant satellite sand blaster sounds like a good idea. How long will the solar panels last when being abraded by micro meteorites constantly 24x7? I'm sure the owners of those multi-billion dollar satellites will be happy with this decision.

Just think, the lenses on NSA's spy satellites lenses will become useless over time. While some people might think this is a good idea the Ukranians might beg to differ on this
