A space elevator is a proposed type of planet-to-space transportation system. The main component would be a cable (also called a tether) anchored to the surface and extending into space. from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A new study suggests that humans can actually build a “space elevator” using existing technologies. Rather than building a space elevator up from Earth, build a 'spaceline' down from the Moon, say astrophysicists Zephyr Penoyre from the University of Cambridge in the UK, and Emily Sandford from Columbia University in New York.

We all need to breathe, but 'the lungs of the Earth' are in flames - Amazon wildfires. Deforestation contributes the climate change. Please make an effort and stop tearing down the Amazon jungle for narrow-minded industrial growth. My thoughts are also with the Hong Kong people in these days of the crisis. I hope the situation will work out and all parties will be satisfied. If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner. Nelson Mandela

Scientist James Lovelock had set up the "Gaia hypothesis" back in 1969. It's "the Earth viewed as a vast self-regulating organism". The hypothesis contributed significantly to our understanding of global warming. I would recommend everyone to read his books about Gaia. James Lovelock is still vital, though at an advanced age. Happy birthday dear James Lovelock! https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-01969-y

An Australian couple, who fed their baby daughter a strict vegan diet resulting in severe malnourishment, has avoided jail time. The couple was sentenced to an 18-month jail term to be served as a community order. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/08/22/vegan-australian-parents-left-baby-girl-severely-malnourished/ There is a huge difference between vegetarian and vegan. Vegetarians don't eat animal products, but vegans don't eat animal products and by-products (e.g. eggs).In my opinion vegan diet isn't good, it is lacking proteins, vitamin B-12, zinc, iron, calcium... Another example I would like to point out is how vegans supplement milk: they use soy,  rice, or almond milk, but are there any almonds in your almond milk? https://janeshealthykitchen.com/almonds-in-your-almond-milk/ I'll remain "Lacto-Ovo vegetarian" - do not eat meat, poultry, or fish, but do eat eggs and dairy products, because improved health is one of the major benefits of a...

Protecting elephants is an important part of fighting climate change. Why? Because every day across Africa and Asia, elephants disperse billions of seeds, some of which will grow into the forests of tomorrow, sequestering and storing carbon, generating rainfall and stabilizing our climate.

Wireless can have the same low latency and high reliability as a wireline connection Durga Malladi - Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. 5G technology will revolutionize the industry, but there is a long road to a smart city, or "Internet of Things" reality, in about five years.

Difficult times are ahead and there isn't artificial intelligence or a fusion energy reactor that will save the day. There has been so much wrongdoing, so much injustice and I'm afraid there is going to be a lot more. I don't see myself as a lazy person and that's why I hold a responsible "work cult" for most global problems. We got trapped in this "work cult" and there is no easy way out of it. Many cities will be underwater by 2050. Most of the wildlife will extinct. The temperature will rise 1, 2, 3, 4, or more degrees. There will be shortages of many items, lack of leadership... In all branches of science people pressurized facts to maximize profit e.g. too many pesticides on crops. There will have to be a lot of brainstorming and deep changes for survival in such awkward circumstances. I hope we'll manage to preserve those fragile human rights we have. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2019/01/the-world-s-coastal-cities-are-going-under-h...

William Tang is a principal research physicist at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (𝖣𝖮𝖤) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (𝖯𝖯𝖯𝖫), he leads a team of scientists that uses Artificial intelligence to develop clean, virtually limitless fusion energy. Fusion, which drives the sun and stars, is that generates energy. It is very important to forecast disruptions — the sudden loss of confinement of plasma particles and energy to make commercial fusion energy work. Disruptions are that can halt fusion reactions and damage the doughnut-shaped tokamaks that house the reactions. Researchers are using Deep Learning techniques for 𝙰𝙸 to predict disruptions accurately and even preventing disruptions from happening in the first place. With that level of accuracy and that amount of time, people running the machine would have time to either mitigate the disruption by cooling the plasma or even by finding a way to avoid it entirely professor Tang said Cutaway diagram of the Inter...

In April 𝖠𝖨 news diminished the value of Google's DeepMind - it nearly flunked high school math, but a turnover came recently when scientists build incredibly accurate universe simulations with a help of artificial intelligence. The sweet problem for the scientists is not knowing how such an accurate universe simulation is being rendered, they should check up, and "debug" every pixel it produces. Overall, it's not so sweet seeing 𝖠𝖨 behaving whimsically, and capriciously - but then again it was anticipated that it's so hard to teach artificial intelligence notions like common sense. https://www.zdnet.com/article/ai-aint-no-a-student-deepmind-flunks-high-school-math/ https://nypost.com/2019/06/28/scientists-build-incredibly-accurate-universe-simulation-but-dont-know-how-they-did-it/ The importance of knowing what goals 𝖠𝖨 should have is imperative, whether they are local (small) or global (cumulative set of local goals).

Sometimes I believe in the Gaia - personification of the Earth. Gaia is the ancestral mother of all life: the primal Mother Earth goddess, from Ancient Greek mythology. I believe that Mother Earth is fragile, not rigid, and so is the peace with it. Recently, we have been witnessing how that fragile peace was disturbed during 𝖥𝖨𝖥𝖠 World Cup 2018. At least two countries have reported earthquakes during the football match: Mexico and Croatia. It was no coincidence. When a football player strikes a goal person tends to stand up, make some noise, applaud, light a firecracker or fireworks, enormous energy is being free up. It's difficult to advocate some sort of cubical design, especially red-white cubical design. Sometimes they say: There is a story behind everything During 𝖥𝖨𝖥𝖠 World Cup 2018 in my country - Croatia, everything was colored in red-white cubical design: the buildings, cars, people... It might be malicious. Gaia remembers.  At the moment I believe that such...

I believe that you shouldn't be estranged from local people with a cosmopolitan attitude. Does it always have to be that way? -No - urban, cosmopolitan thinking is more inclusive, liberal, but it's hard to maintain your viewpoints in these conservative, right-wing times. There is pressure and stress coming from everywhere pushing you to make an error, be rude, maybe even have a psychotic episode. This highly competitive world where Universal Basic Income is not enabled is sometimes called concrete jungle. I believe we should connect and make the world a better place, regardless of all kinds of differences, and accept our neighbor no matter if he/she is urbane, a peasant, 𝖫𝖦𝖡𝖳𝖰, or coming from abroad.

Zero Hunger is a part of the Sustainable Development Goals and projections of population growth predict that the human population will reach 9 billion in 2050. Vertical farming should not be considered as a joke and laughing stock anymore, but be careful which farm you’re buying. In order to make your calculation faultless, you should know all the facts. I like vertical farming because there is no use of pesticides, I urge you to enable plants circadian rhythm. Vertical Farming by Numbers

𝖭𝖠𝖲𝖠's InSight Mars Lander is equipped with a seismometer to measure all possible marsquakes, but I'm more interested in moonquakes. It's important to say about this particular subject that moonquakes (the lunar equivalents of earthquakes) were heavily studied in the 1970s. A moonquake can shake the ground for hours. Man often says "The first footprints put on the Moon will probably stay as long as the Moon itself lasts", implying the Space Age has started recently, for the first time. For all we know, considering mankind exists 100,000 years, and the Moon's surface entropy, it's possible we've been there before. Thinking that the Space Age began recently may be wrong thinking, that kind of prejudice can lead to dangerous indoctrination. I hope my generation will make some positive mark in mankind that will truly be memorable, something more than Moon/Mars landings.

Are you into virtual reality (a gamer)? What is the difference between WebGL, ‎OpenGL, WebVR? Are you into cryptocurrencies? What is the difference between Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple? In my youth internet was becoming more and more popular, for web designers it was all about HTML, JavaScript and CSS. Web developers did programming with PHP, MYSQL, and the help of web designers. Tomislav Uzelac is the Croatian programmer who created AMP, considered the first successful (real-time) MP3 player.

Plummeting insect numbers 'threaten collapse of nature' Exclusive: Insects could vanish within a century at current rate of decline, says global review Stopping traditional construction - although such an event has benefits for nature - it ruins current economic indicators. I understand we could be facing a recession threshold. If so, in the end, we should know the answer to how to gain a sustainable economy that will not conflict with climate, nature. There must be more in the economy than issuing construction permits, especially in a sustainable economy - it's the entire service sector and people should focus more on service rather than physical build (concreting and other traditional construction methods) Please listen to what the richest man in the 2018 list of the billionaires has to say: Jeff Bezos thinks we need to build industrial zones in space in order to save Earth Elon Musk wants us to build human colonies on Mars.

Resolution 60/7 establishing 27 January as International Holocaust Remembrance Day urges every member nation of the U.N. to honor the memory of Holocaust victims, and encourages the development of educational programs about Holocaust history to help prevent future acts of genocide. from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Genocidal state, medical experiments  ⇒ Holocaust victims were people who were targeted by the government of Nazi Germany for various discriminatory practices due to their ethnicity, religion, political beliefs, or sexual orientation. I'm gay and I can imagine the hard times gays had in Nazi Germany, especially the ones that talked openly about their sexual orientation. There is still pressure towards minorities here in Croatia. I wish to express my deepest condolence to all the Holocaust victims.

It is strange that only extraordinary men make the discoveries, which later appear so easy and simple. Georg C. Lichtenberg Freedom of speech is for a person with a name and surname, I mean, how else to quote? -But there is a "Pen name" notion that complicates a "straightforward" situation. That's how I started writing in 2011, with a pseudonym adopted by an author (me - Luka Jagor). Other thoughts on freedom of speech: If we want to limit speech because it causes harm, we will have to ban a lot of political speech. George Kateb Freedom of speech is a principal pillar of a free government; when this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved, and tyranny is erected on its ruins.

The globalization process is very important, but it should not lead us to direct democracy or swarm intelligence. Such swarm intelligence is devastating to human rights and in fact, is anti-intelligence . Information is traveling at the speed of the light (at least we know how our ancestors talked to Apollo spacecraft - much faster than a speed of sound , which seems important now to demystify). Mexico wall dispute is slowing down the economy in the  𝖴𝖲𝖠 . I hope China's growth will be more sustainable, especially considering ecology factors.  Great Britain is avoiding real structural reforms of accumulated bureaucracy.
