Zhigang Suo @zhigangsuo In Thursday morning, I ended my lecture with this slide. Knits and weaves are yarns of dense entanglements. Knits are stretchable, but weaves are not. Sitting beside me on the plane today is a lady knitting a sock. She entangles a single yarn into a network. A single yarn! https://pic.x.com/rgz6lullcz x.com/zhigangsuo/sta… Pretty

Foundation updated – One “Seldon year” is worth 1000 years of humans doing it unaided

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages, Efficiency Prizes, Internet efficiency, Internet Foundation July 31, 2024

The Trantor of Foundation only had 40 Billion humans. With nuclear, atomic and true AI, most everyone could see the sky. The food and material intermediates flowing to human consumable and fabrication locations, can be energized by nuclear and atomic power sources. Mainly gamma, electron, ion and isotope forms – which are well understood and
