Watching “Are We Alone?” at https://youtu.be/c53yK1MJOY, I thought (Most species in the Universe might be fabricated, not natural, and live for Millions of years) If fabricated lifeforms are the dominant species, even from organic precursor species – once formed they can spread for billions of years. Have unique memories and existence for millions/ billions of

I can sort it out. I was writing more to myself to write down my intentions. MESH has a long pedigree and its interactions with other classifications, complex and filled with many distractions and stories. I will look at the whole history of MESH again and study the various languages together. Thank you for replying.

Every frame of every video posted on the Internet, generated by diffusion and algorithm, could be dated, tagged and traced. If all copies are different, then it is hard to know which part is the tag. There are people who know how to do that fairly and usefully. Each person sees a unique video, the

Continuing my analysis of the paper at https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ad31a1 I have been treating it as a blob of text and links. The 5+ Billion humans using the internet can find it with their browsers, but it is not easily absorbed as a piece of knowledge. There are different versions – the HTML+images at that URL.

Richard Collins: Can you tell me details of the Atacama Total Power Array? It seems to be four (12 meter) radio telescopes. Is any of the data available from the Total Power Array available? I am reading “Discovery of an Accretion Streamer and a Slow Wide-angle Outflow around FU Orionis” at https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ad31a1 and want to

Angela, In my view of the Internet, and the world, whoever sees something that can be improved, tries to fix it, including leaving notes about how to do things. At least you replied, which is more than most sites would do. “Web Content Officer” is an interesting title. It implies a level of care beyond

SciFi Tales: We Thought Earth Would Be Easy To Conquer Until We Landed In Desert! | HFY | Sci-Fi Story at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXHKZTsP5CE Probably enough of a story to make a book and screen play. A backstory for each side, confrontation, resolve and future relations between species. Even in the current world, we would likely have

I spent much of the day tracing out software used by the Fu Ori teams mentioned in https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ad31a1. It is badly organized by my lights (My first full time job was “scientific programmer” for satellite orbit determination in 1970) and I spent much of the last 26 years every day looking at ways to simplify

I am reading the 14 repositories for CASA (Common Astronomy Software Applications) at https://github.com/orgs/casangi/repositories There are only 6942 files and 1814 folders in total and what appears to be many duplicates. And MANY duplicate file and folder names. A good part of the problem with CASA is the poor methods for file management. If
