The weapons and tradition

Below this text is a link to famous traditional German songs from the 17th. century. There is a series of portraits of that time art, and here I must mention, that I don't have copyrights for that video, but you might push the link and watch it by self. The film consists the interesting paintings from that period, and as you might seem, those paintings consist the introductions, how the weapons should handle, and of course the warnings and codes, what people who fought in 30-years war should afraid.


The rifles in those paintings seems normal weapons, but they are made by extremely strong materials, what means that they were so-called "hand cannons".  Those extremely powerful flintlock muskets could penetrate walls of stone houses, and that made them extremely dangerous.  Also, the crossbow was loaded with windlass, and that tells something, how powerful those weapons were. The strong bow would give extremely high power for arrows, what would send to the targets.


Also, there are paintings of the men, who use heavy swords. Those extremely long swords were so devastating, that they could cut the horse in two pieces. But in the 30-years war, those swords were also equipped with rifles, what would make them more powerful. The back of the sword was sometimes equipped with the small pistol, what could be used when the blade is turned upwards, and the opponent was not always noticed the pistol.


There are stories of the "singing swords", what was equipped with the instrument, what keeps the sound, what caused pain. The blade has targeted the sound and the target was screaming with pain. After that, the inventor named Alessandro Volta created the sword where was the Volta's statue in the band. That sword gave electric shocks to the other persons if Volta used that sword against other people.


There were, of course, the "Black magic", that meant that the swords could load with electricity, what was created by using static electricity. In fact in the modern military sometimes have been tested the catapults and even the crossbows, what are equipped with dynamos. The fast rotating dynamos can store the high voltage electricity for the arrows, and that could make them excellent electromagnetic weapons, what could damage the electronic equipment.


Those arrows would not deliver their electricity, because the wooden structure would be a good electric insulator. And during the 30-years war, the crossbows were equipped with muskets, because that gave the shooter the change for two fast shots.   Also sometimes recon troops have damaged the electric high voltage lines by shooting arrows, where was connected the electric wires. When the wires have touched the cables, that can cause damages to the power circuits.


Modern people have given also some new names for the paintings. In the 4:41 the painting was renamed as the "MAV attack". But the purpose is only to tell, that people are talking everything, what those men have done. And picture what is at the 3:38 is renamed as "Knight gets equipment from the fourth dimension". The meaning of that picture is only the remember that the men could have secret orders for some situations. There are many interesting details in the film, what is in the link, what is below the text. The meaning of the cloud is, of course, bad news. And in some pictures, the meaning is the scare the people, that somebody would see, what people are doing, and if those men were drunk, they were killed very easily.

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
