Kevin Kelly 'An ultimate simulation needs an ultimate computer, and the new science of digitalism says that the universe itself is the ultimate computer — actually the only computer. Further, it says, all the computation of the human world, especially our puny little PCs, merely piggybacks on cycles of the great computer. Weaving together the...

New capability for the Indian Navy. I have not seen details on whether the missile capability is that of a SSGN, but the reports so far tend to indicate that the submarine is not a ballistic missile submarine. Given India's relationship with Pakistan, I would guess that they are working on the ability to launch nuclear payload cruise missiles.

Attention - interest - sync - time passage, now there might be a measurement of the correlation by observing blinking. "Worried you'll blink and miss a crucial piece of the action? Then you can relax. While watching a film, we subconsciously control the timing of blinks to make sure we don't miss anything important. And because we tend to...

Do you consider yourself a "visual" person? The FM 100 Hue Test puts forward a simple way of testing your color vision. Arrange the colored squares according to hue. The instructions are simple enough, but the test is tricky. I spent a good ten minutes working on this one, and got a bit of a headache as well. My results... I'm...

Imagine the person you love, someone you have known for decades, someone who has become the very meaning of your life, suddenly, and unexpectedly has a stroke. Their body is crippled to near uselessness, relinquishing them of their dignity. And, having lost the ability to communicate with them, you’re not even sure if their mind is as it was, if...

How's that "Freedom from Imperialism" thing working out for you?

I was barely awake while all this was running through my head so it may seem like I'm rambling or not making any sense, forgive me. I just felt out I had to get this out of my head though and figured I'd share it with the people here and maybe get some other opinions. Life is subject and seen differently through the eyes of each individual. A...

Dream are cool. have you heard of lucid dreaming? It's when you become aware that you are dreaming and are able to control it.

Floral: the gentle, murmuring field. Like the faint ocean swells tuned to the infant-glossed octaves that welcomed plasmodia, then notochord, then sinuses. Amidst the caustic blunted grid declared by other neighbours, what of this generosity, this hovered breath of nurture? Calm. Rising. Calming, rising, rising. Coils merging from sleep. Fine...

The grandfather paradox is a very simple, science-fiction-based apparent inconsistency at the very heart of the idea of time travel into the past. It's very simply that you travel into the past and murder your own grandfather before he sires your mother or your father, and where does that then leave you? Do you instantly pop out of existence...
