We are already working with several large brands to make this a reality. “

However, when the task is to search for a pink bar among different shaped and different coloured bars, human reaction times increase by approximately 50ms with each additional bar. When humans did this task on Psychlab, we replicated this result. “

A Strategy for Ruination | Boston Review: “if you hold, as we do, that—whatever reforms we can and must fight to instantiate—this system can’t ultimately be reformed out of being one of exploitation and oppression, then we have to mediate that fight for quotidian amelioration with a strategy of tension, an unflinching antinomianism. To reclaim the slogan from the defeated attempt to oppose Greek austerity measures, an Oxi (“no”) underlying all. Precisely because it isn’t impossible; because of the scale of what it would mean; because of how we’d come to other ourselves in the process, changing ourselves to fit the world we would, will, have remade; far, far more than to outline any particular prescriptions, to utopia must be to say no.”

What Putin Really Wants – The Atlantic: “The second moment was in November 2013, when young Ukrainians came out onto the Maidan—Independence Square—in the capital, Kiev, to protest then-President Viktor Yanukovych pulling out of an economic agreement with the European Union under pressure from Putin. The demonstrators stayed all winter, until the police opened fire on them, killing some 100 people. The next day, February 21, 2014, Yanukovych signed a political-reconciliation plan, brokered by Russia, America, and the EU, but that night he fled the capital. To Putin, it was clear what had happened: America had toppled his closest ally, in a country he regarded as an extension of Russia itself. All that money America had spent on prodemocracy NGOs in Ukraine had paid off. The presence of Victoria Nuland, a State Department assistant secretary, handing out snacks on the Maidan during the protests, only cemented his worst fears. “

The great nutrient collapse: “What that means for humans―whose main food intake is plants―is only just starting to be investigated. Researchers who dive into it will have to surmount obstacles like its low profile and slow pace, and a political environment where the word “climate” is enough to derail a funding conversation. It will also require entirely new bridges to be built in the world of science―a problem that Loladze himself wryly acknowledges in his own research. When his paper was finally published in 2014, Loladze listed his grant rejections in the acknowledgements. “

Survilaite had hoped to live there too—cockroaches and all—but there was no room. She’s moving into a co-ed fraternity off campus instead. As Senior House students spread out across campus this year, former advisers worry that they’ll be at even greater risk. They can reach out to MIT’s mental health services if they need it, the chancellor says. Survilaite plans to. Others won’t be so easy to track, like the former president of the house, who has opted to take a year off after the struggles of the past year. “

She enjoys podcasts like Two Dope Queens and Another Round, both hosted by black women, and gets extraordinarily excited when I tell her that the following day I’m going to be speaking to the hosts of WNYC’s Nancy, a podcast hosted by two queer Asian-American friends exploring LGBTQ issues. “

Can Uber Ever Deliver?

Recent events have badly undermined goodwill. There is no evidence that Uber has a credible profit turnaround plan. None of the alternative strategic paths that one can imagine appear to have much chance of success. “

Berkeley author George Lakoff says, ‘Don’t underestimate Trump’ — Berkeleyside: “Berkeley could also reframe the word “freedom” when it comes to the demonstrations that have started taking place here, Lakoff said. “The protestors are trying to claim that what they are doing is Free Speech, but assemblage for the purpose of beating people up is not freedom,” Lakoff said. “You have the freedom to walk down the street, but not the freedom to keep other people from walking down the street: you don’t have the freedom to impose on other people’s freedom. The alt-right doesn’t have the right to come here and beat people up, and neither does Antifa.” “

Strapping on the Sacred: When Religion Enters Virtual Reality | Features | Archinect: “One could argue that rituals like the Stations of the Cross already constitute a virtual reality. As one passes by a series of stained glass windows, they imagine movements layered on the glazed surface. Inherited stories take on life through their visual representation. But VR blows that open. Instead of imagining the Passions of the Christ, one could theoretically experience them—perhaps even from the vantage point Jesus himself (although that might constitute blasphemy).”

Erik Verlinde’s Gravity Minus Dark Matter | Quanta Magazine: “De Sitter space-times like ours stretch as you look far into the distance. For this to happen, space-time must be infused with a tiny amount of background energy — often called dark energy — which drives space-time apart from itself. Verlinde models dark energy as a thermal energy, as if our universe has been heated to an excited state. (AdS space, by contrast, is like a system in its ground state.) Verlinde associates this thermal energy with long-range entanglement between the underlying qubits, as if they have been shaken up, driving entangled pairs far apart. He argues that this long-range entanglement is disrupted by the presence of matter, which essentially removes dark energy from the region of space-time that it occupied. The dark energy then tries to move back into this space, exerting a kind of elastic response on the matter that is equivalent to a gravitational attraction. “

While it’s not obvious that other gorillas consider him a total weirdo, she explains, he seems more persistent than many other lone silverbacks. “It could be, potentially, that the [other gorillas] know that he means it in a way that other lone silverbacks don’t, and if they don’t do something, he’s just going to keep coming back.” “

Qualcomm’s VR820 Adds Full Movement Freedom To Mobile VR: “Performance-wise, I would actually expect this headset to benchmark and perform better than Snapdragon 820-based smartphone solutions because of the better cooling solution. The thermal designs of smartphones these days are extremely limiting on long term VR capabilities and until something changes about that standalone VR headsets are going to be the future of mobile VR. Qualcomm has not said anything about Daydream capability, but I suspect that there’s a very high chance that we could see a Daydream headset built using this reference platform considering all the various VR features it already supports. “

Wintel VR: Intel, Microsoft, And Their Two-Pronged Plan To Democratize VR, AR And MR: “But that’s just the first couple of steps–making the stuff work. As we’ve seen time and again in the tech industry in recent years, content, or the lack thereof, is of utmost importance. To that end, though, Pallister seems wholly unconcerned, because assuming the Wintel bit works like it’s supposed to, the content already exists. The answer for the unnamed mainstream mystery HMD is the same as the one for Alloy. “Similar to what [Microsoft] did with HoloLens, they’re giving you a way to bring your existing Win32 apps and content into a VR space and interact with them in some ways. They’re also bringing the set of content they’ve done for Windows Holographic, and for the HoloLens, into the occluded headset Windows Holographic shell as well, so that’s another pool of content that they have to draw from.” “

Leaving it behind | The Economist: “In the 1990s it became clear that microfinance, then the most exciting tool in development economics, was not reaching the very poorest people, recalls Sir Fazle Abed, BRAC’s founder. Microlenders offer small loans at lower interest rates than moneylenders charge. Costs are kept down by assembling small groups of borrowers and encouraging them to exert pressure on each other to repay their loans. One reason the poorest were not borrowing, Sir Fazle says, was that other villagers viewed them as hopeless cases. “

Virtual reality can’t get rid of its dork factor – Business Insider: “That last one is more important than it sounds: it goes under-discussed in most VR coverage, but the cost of a gaming PC that can run games for the Oculus Rift at the resolution and frame rate they demand is easily upwards of £1,000. Sony’s forthcoming Morpheus, which hooks up to the PS4, cuts that cost by a third – but the company has not yet made the device widely available to testers, and many are concerned that the Playstation won’t be able to push 120 frames-per-second at a 4K resolution. “

The VR Headset Nobody is Building — Medium: “Gear VR has shown the path to usable, mobile VR. However, it only works with two phones. These are phones that, before I wanted to play with Gear VR, I didn’t own. Of course I went out and bought them, but I don’t think most people are going to buy a different phone just to do VR… especially at the price point. I do think that Note 4 and S6 owners will find the Gear VR to be a nifty accessory, maybe even a must-have in the next few years. And perhaps prospective Samsung phone buyers will view Gear as part of a Samsung ecosystem and yet another reason to make the purchase. “

Australia’s leading venture capital funds, angel groups and other industry stakeholders have come together to make a pledge to create more efficiency and transparency to the fund raising process. Startups raising money in Australia should spend less time and money on the legal and financing process. We want to help by open sourcing the documents we use to invest in companies.”

Farewell then, Mr Elop: It wasn’t actually your fault • The Register: “Nobody in the industry was interested in licensing Nokia’s modern, but still-to-be-finished Meego platform by then, and licensing was Nokia’s preferred ethical way of doing things. Google had given Android away for free, and Google wasn’t Nokia. There was no time to look the gift horse in the mouth; eager to get something iPhone-ish to sell punters clamouring for an iPhone-ish experience (which Symbian couldn’t offer), the industry rapidly swung behind Android. “

True Democracy: World’s First ‘Political App’ Blockchain Party Launches in Australia: “Additionally, participation begets participation in more ways than one.

By participating in all levels of governance we hope to become broadly attractive and build participation from all levels. This will be especially noticeable when the NVB holds the final seat in a vote. At this point there will be a strong incentive to influence the vote and so a resource war of sorts begins, where the resource is the potential to participate in the NVB. “

Then with cities like Sydney and San Diego, you are maybe talking 20 or 30 years before you get significant modal shift from private car ownership. “

When Lieutenant General David Morrison’s “Chief of Army message regarding unacceptable behavior” went viral, it wasn’t because of the awkward poetry of its title, but because of the hard, plainspoken truths it conveyed. A hundred years of Hollywood’s honeyed words created the void YouTube filled.”

The only communication allowed is via service interface calls over the network. 4) It doesn’t matter what technology they use. HTTP, Corba, Pubsub, custom protocols — doesn’t matter. Bezos doesn’t care. 5) All service interfaces, without exception, must be designed from the ground up to be externalizable. That is to say, the team must plan and design to be able to expose the interface to developers in the outside world. No exceptions. 6) Anyone who doesn’t do this will be fired. 7) Thank you; have a nice day!”

Blocking receptor in brain’s immune cells counters Alzheimer’s in mice, study finds | News Center | Stanford Medicine: “Clearly, knocking out EP2 action in A-beta-provoked microglia benefited memory in mice that had either gradually (the “Alzheimer’s” mice) or suddenly (the brain-injected mice) acquired excessive A-beta in their brains. Likewise, mouse microglia bioengineered to lack EP2 vastly outperformed unaltered microglia, in A-beta-challenged brains, at such critical tasks as secreting recruiting chemicals and factors beneficial to nerve cells and in producing inflammation-countering, rather than inflammation-spurring, proteins. “

I was fighting hard against the same compulsion to repeat previous acts of compulsion. “

There are plenty of woman academics and researchers who study technology and social change, but we are a long way from the forefront of stage-managed gobbledygook. Instead of getting regaled with nods and winks for “inventing the Internet,” women in the tech world typically have to overcome the bigoted suspicions of an intensively male geek culture—when, that is, they don’t face outright harassment in the course of pursuing industry careers. “

Increasingly scientists think there should be some regulatory oversight maybe at the national and international level, just to make sure that we don’t do something very foolish. With artificial intelligence we are summoning the demon. In all those stories where there’s the guy with the pentagram and the holy water, it’s like yeah he’s sure he can control the demon.

NetWare sales revive in China thanks to that man Snowden • The Register: “* Novell always felt that its NetWare Loadable Module application server deserved more attention than developers were willing to give it. And as it happens NLMs kinda almost live on. Here’s why: the first commercial NLM was Cheyenne Software’s ARCserve. Cheyenne was eventually slurped by CA, which only recently spun out ARCserve as an independent entity. I’ve no way of knowing if there’s a single line of code that’s made the journey. “

Can do better: Tech industry report on Australia’s tech curriculum • The Register: “The Australian Information Industries Association (AIIA) is also cool on the decision. While the Association told us “We agree that implementation of the Digital Technologies Curriculum must be supported by appropriate teacher training and that this is imperative to achieving the outcomes required,” it worries that “Stepping back from the current Digital Technologies Curriculum proposed by ACARA will effectively result in Australia being out of step with trends in ICT and computer science education in countries such as the USA, UK, NZ, the Netherlands and even Vietnam. This poses serious risks to Australia’s ongoing competitiveness in the global digital economy. “

Corporate America Hasn’t Been Disrupted | FiveThirtyEight: “In another paper published last week, Decker and Haltiwanger, both at the University of Maryland, offered two categories of explanation, one more worrisome and one more benign. The more benign explanation is that something, perhaps improved technology, has made it easier for companies to become more efficient on their own. Imagine, for example, that a manager at a Home Depot in Dallas comes up with a better way of managing inventory. Thanks to better analytics software, someone at corporate headquarters is more likely to notice the improvement and be able to roll out the innovation to the rest of the chain. In that scenario, the hardware industry, and the economy more broadly, reaps the benefits of the new idea without the manager needing to take the risk of leaving Home Depot to launch a rival business. “

He Was a Crook – by Hunter S. Thompson: “Some people will say that words like scum and rotten are wrong for Objective Journalism — which is true, but they miss the point. It was the built-in blind spots of the Objective rules and dogma that allowed Nixon to slither into the White House in the first place. He looked so good on paper that you could almost vote for him sight unseen. He seemed so all-American, so much like Horatio Alger, that he was able to slip through the cracks of Objective Journalism. You had to get Subjective to see Nixon clearly, and the shock of recognition was often painful. “

Satoshi: Why Newsweek isn’t convincing | Felix Salmon: “Goodman is well aware of the epistemic territory here. She says things like “you have to be careful of confirmation bias”, and happily drops references to Russell’s teapot and Fooled by Randomness. As such, she has sympathy with people like me who read her story and aren’t convinced by it. But if there’s one lesson above all others that I’ve learned from Danny Kahneman, it’s that simply being aware of our biases doesn’t really help us overcome them. Unless and until Goodman can demonstrate in a systematic and analytically-convincing manner that her forensic techniques point to a high probability that Dorian is Satoshi, I’m going to remain skeptical. “
