Facebook – Cutting Water with a hydrophobic knife – look at me do this and this and this

Richard K Collins Experimenting, Material and Process Model Calibration September 9, 2024

https://www.facebook.com/reel/982103566933564 You can make a holder and cutter with cameras and controls to cut smaller and smaller. What tools you use determine how small, but better than using eyes, hands and cutters that are really rather large and blunt. Perhaps laser(s). Your videos are often intriguing, but I am almost always dissatisfied because it is

Facebook – Memory storage devices. Other possibilities, and the future

Richard K Collins All Global Open Devices, All knowledge, All Languages September 9, 2024

https://www.facebook.com/reel/982103566933564 Facebook – Memory storage devices. Other possibilities, and the future I used every one of those in many places. But before those were vacuum tube memories, relay memories, magnetic cores, bubble memories, washing machine sized disk drives, paper tape, magnetic wires, and many others. My first computer I made out of straight pins and

Facebook – To move things and humans faster than light requires a science of collaboration at solar system scale

Richard K Collins All Global Open Devices, All knowledge, All Languages, Collaborative Model and Data September 9, 2024

https://www.facebook.com/reel/2167075623691552 Facebook – To move things and humans faster than light requires a science of collaboration at solar system scale Coordinating precise time for observations on the Earth, and in the solar system, is not impossible. But it requires a set of iterative solutions, not a one-shot rule. The key is to decide on the

Many entities, including machines and organizations, are now “independent organisms” but not intelligent and responsible If an AI performs an illegal act, who should be held accountable? I have to deal with every possible type of entity on the Internet, including intelligent systems made of computers, and many that are now hybrids of humans and

Cécile Gal @CecileGal Paper out! https://nature.com/articles/s41598-024-59089-1 We show that presenting visual stimuli in random order of visibility impairs humans’ ability to recognise them. Unlike machines, where random presentation of samples helps learning (avoid overfitting), in humans randomness is detrimental. Replying to @CecileGal Training Human Perception.
