Living in the distant future, we have remarkable technology. More Memory, Storage, and Processing power than we could ever need, want, or imagine. We even have the graphics chips integrated directly onto the CPU with specs unfathomable 25 years ago.
And despite all this, the software has gotten slower. There are delays when clicking/opening different windows, panels, and interfaces.
I've had junk computers running Windows 98 and XP that ran snappier than modern systems. What a joke.
But why does the rope wrap around the central stick? That's the one thing they don't explain. It goes through the hole at the bottom of the central stick and the pulley is attached to that. There must be a reason that rope wraps around the central stick and the pulley isn't just tied to the bottom of the stick. Des anybody know?
The relevant part: "The ALICE analysis shows that, during Run 2 of the LHC (2015–2018), about 86 billion gold nuclei were created at the four major experiments. In terms of mass, this corresponds to just 29 picograms (2.9 ×10-11 g)."
Just need to scale it by trillions to make 1 ounce, but transmutation of lead to gold - the dream of many alchemists - is now just a by product of particle accelerators.
A US Army veteran who was killed in a road rage incident nearly four years ago was able to forgive the man who fatally shot him - thanks to artificial intelligence. Christopher Pelkey, 37, was shot dead by Gabriel Paul Horcasitas while on his way home from a church (hmmm) softball game before he was sentenced, the court heard from an AI-generated version of Pelkey himself. The heartbreaking AI video was created by Pelkey's sister Stacey Wales, who felt that the shooter needed to hear what the Army veteran would have told him.
Wristwatches are more than timekeepers—they align with how our brains process time. Dual analog-digital displays, blending electromechanical dials with LED/LCD readouts, offer the best of both worlds, as the saying goes, “having your cake and eating it too.”
They optimize cognitive time perception by combining spatial intuition with instant precision.
Analog electromechanical displays, with rotating hands on a circular dial, engage the brain’s visuospatial cognition. This interface provides a clear sense of temporal flow—how much of the day has passed or remains—perfect for contextual time management, like pacing tasks or planning meetings.
Digital LED/LCD displays deliver immediate temporal data through numeric readouts, enabling rapid, precise time checks without cognitive effort. This is essential for time-critical moments, like meeting deadlines or timing activities.
Single-mode displays fall short. Analog-only systems slow precise checks, while digital-only readouts lack spatial-temporal context. Dual ana-digi watches, integrating both technologies, meet the brain’s dual needs: intuitive flow and exactness in one glance.
Wearing a dual ana-digi watch uplifts your mood and efficiency. This hybrid chronometric tool syncs with your cognitive processes, making time feel intuitive and empowering.
