I've been exploring the meaning of p2p with @notthisbody, and along the way trying to distill the concept down to a simple definition. The logic of p2p has long transcended file sharing and is beginning to transform everything from politics to our economy. 'peer-to-peer' only scratches the surface of what we mean by p2p. There are lots of...

There's been a lot of talk recently about the changes in Net Neutrality laws, and the possibility that they may change drastically in the coming years, thus disallowing for free communications between peers. It's worrisome that Google, monolithic as it is, keeps popping up in these conversations as being not-quite-for neutrality... In the...

The strange case of solar flares and radioactive elements When researchers found an unusual linkage between solar flares and the inner life of radioactive elements on Earth, it touched off a scientific detective investigation that could end up protecting the lives of space-walking astronauts and maybe rewriting some of the assumptions of...

A man can do what he wants, but not want what he wants. — Arthur Schopenhauer Free will does not and cannot imply without cause, randomness or unpredictability. All those qualities, although present in complex systems, would contradict the notion of willful intent. What we want, and therefore do, must be based on reasonable ground....

Is quantum theory weird enough for the real world? Our most successful theory of nature is bewilderingly remote from reality. But fixing that may require a weirder theory still PHYSICS, its practitioners will proudly tell you, is the most fundamental of sciences. Its theories and laws distil the workings of the real world - of particles...

The sticker network is a network made with wirelless stickers. Control over the internet leads to a new form of independent network: the sticker network. This is in fact an open internet wich may interconnect wirelless routers or work as standalone. All you have to do is stick arround. Glue stickers everywhere. Large quantities of stickers are...

It was a bright, winter day. The icy, crystal air scraped at my cheeks. With every breath, the frost cut deeper into my throat. Right through the extra thick wool sweater, the cold clawed at my bones. It felt as I was naked past my skin. This time there was no hope of returning unscathed. Somehow the inert brightness and cold amplified my sight;...

You know that innocence they always talk about that slowly gets sucked out of your soul as you get older and older? Where they judge you if you talk about the magnificent chain of events that just happened in your mind all at once that have nothing to do with the current conversation? Where they shut down your every suggestion because it's not...
