Cogito ergo sum. I think; therefore I am (René Descartes, French philosopher)

    Can machines predict the future?  In the beginning, I must say that the world is changing. The great mathematicians like Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906) had not had quantum computers.  And maybe quantum computers are allowing us to create the calculations that are making it possible to predict the behavior of human society. But there is the possibility that those systems could predict the behavior of a single person.  Can we predict the future of material? When we are thinking about the shape of the universe and material. The behavior of material should follow a certain formula. Making predictions of the things that are going to happen. Seem the easiest thing in the world. We should know the trajectories of the particles and objects very well. The problem is that the universe is full of wildcards like supernovas and other things like gravitational waves that might have a bigger influence than nobody predicted.  If we are thinking about things like ele...

    China has increased its ECM power near its borders. China increased its ECM (Electronic Counter-Measure) systems at artificial islands near its borders. The fixed countermeasure stations can deny the use of most modern US weapons. But the more interesting things are details that the Chinese are kept away from people. China has developed many new weapon systems. And there is almost certainly the DEW (Directed Energy Weapons).  The problem is that those EM stations are on-ground stations. And that means. There could be even a megawatt-class microwave or radio system in those stations. The powerful radio waves can cause the synthetic EMP-pulse that destroys the computers.  The countermeasure stations can cut the communication links that are integrated ground, sea, and airborne troops in one entirety. Those communication links are playing a vital role in communication between satellites and US systems. If the communication between troops is not working the main ...

 Could atomic copper and iron in brains cause the Altzheimer? Researchers are found atomic iron and copper in the brains of Alzheimer's patients. In an electrolytic environment, the iron and copper nanoparticles form electricity. When we are talking about the things that are causing Altzheimer's disease there can be many things that are destroying myelin cells.  In some cases, the plaque that is created by caries bacteria can simply cover the outer layer of the myelin cells. Or it can close the ion pumps of the cells. And that thing can deny the nutrient from the cells. In the cases that there is galvanic pair inside the living cells. Electricity that thing creates can burn the cell. The electrolysis that this thing creates can disturb the electrolytic balance in those cells.  That thing can be one of the answers to the question of what causes this terrifying memory illness? The reason why Alzheimer's patient loses memory is that the axons of the neurons are lost their my...

     The Juno probe captured eerie sounds from the Jupiter Moon Ganymede. Above: Ganymede moon imaged by Juno probe in 2021 (Wikipedia/Ganymede (moon)) The radars and new laser altimeters are multipurpose tools. Those systems can use to measure distances between the objects. They can measure the depth of the oceans. And they can turn to laser-and radar microphones that can capture sounds from other planets and moons of our solar system.  The moving ice above the oceans of the icy moons and the tidal waves inside those moons are causing eerie and interesting sounds. That kind of sound can hear by using remote microphones.  The thing is that the "water magma" below icy moons is causing the situation that the location of the possible Jupiter base must re-estimate. The icy cores of those moons can break. And tidal forces of the giant planet are causing the situation that the water flow below the ice core is very high.  The sensors of the Juno spacecraft are ver...

    The Proxima Centauri Signal decoded. And the only interesting thing is why that signal is unique? So the signal from Proxima Centauri is analyzed and the broken computer caused that thing. And this is one of the best examples of how people can be wrong. People who are trying to decode signals are using lots of time for those things. And the other people can say that "they should know that this was not another civilization".  And I would be surprised if that thing would be the signal from another civilization. The thing that is interesting with Proxima Centauri B and C is why that planet was confirmed so late. Many more distant exoplanets were confirmed a long time ago.  Sorry boys, I must tell you that this kind of thing is a very interesting way to see things. The thing is that we must use sources that are given to the public audience. So there might be mistakes until the source of the signal is confirmed.  The thing that makes Proxima signal interesti...

   The new camera is size as salt grain. Image 1: The new camera is small as salt grain. And that is the great victory of nanotechnology. That kind of extremely small camera can give eyes to the nanomachines that can operate inside human veins. That kind of small-size camera can connect with other nanotechnologies like nanomachines and nano-size microchips.  The ability to connect that kind of camera with nano-size submarines can make those systems extremely capable. The nano-cameras can make it possible to remove blocks from veins or destroy tumors and bacteria nests by using extreme accuracy. The nano-camera can connect with the nano-size microchips that are controlling cyborg bugs. In some visions, the remote-controlled army ants can remove sick tissue from the skin.  Image 2: The thing is that operators can also use this kind of system can also for military and intelligence operations.  The remote-controlled bugs are also good tools for recon and other types...

   What makes populists so popular? If we are thinking the politics there is always the possibility. That the politician will start to follow some very noisy. But a small marginal group. The small marginal groups are many times boosting their agenda with weapons. And that is the reason why I should put the image of R-4 carbine at the top of this text. Guns are the things that guarantee publicity. And those things also guarantee authority for the people who carry them. But in this case, I will not put the image of the weapon in that place.  The reason for that is he tells people what they want to hear. Same way as other populists he has an explanation for everything. The reason for that thing is the "political elitists". That imaginational group is denying people to think what they want. And the thing that makes Trump somehow terrible is that he plays the same game with marginal groups. The thing that makes marginal groups frightening is that they are boosting their agenda...

   For the first time probe has touched the Sun.  NASA Parker probe has been dive in the Sun. That probe used interesting technology that helped to keep it cool. There could be possible to make the probe dive even deeper by using a magnetic field that pushes the plasma away from the probe. That would decrease the interaction between the probe and the plasma that comes from the Sun.  The reason why Parker was sent to its mission. Is that it should collect data from the solar wind. The solar wind is high-energetic plasma that can destroy spacecraft. But there is another reason why close contact with the Sun is needed. The mission of probes like Parker is to collect data for the fusion tests. The power source of the Sun is fusion reaction. And the close contact with the Sun is the thing that can help to model the conditions that are making fusion possible.  In some visions, the probes like Parker can collect antimatter from the solar atmosphere. The probe would tra...

 Where are aliens hiding? Above: fictional space cruiser from "Star Wars" movie Are there other technical advanced civilizations near us? Are there other technical advanced civilizations near us? That is one of the biggest questions we ever faced. There are no official contacts with aliens and the rest are purely hypothetical thoughts and models.  But there is the possibility that SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) will make contact tomorrow. Or maybe it takes thousands of years for taking confirmed signals from the other civilizations.  Tools like the James Webb telescope and quantum computers are the most powerful tools ever been used for that kind of mission. The James Webb telescope can find the Earth-size planets orbiting other stars. But the main role in the SETI program plays radio telescopes. The requirement for making contact is that also aliens are using similar technology with us.  We don't even know if the aliens have radio telescopes? And wh...

 The barren plateaus problem and intelligence The lack of stimulation is the thing that causes loss of the motivation for create new things.  What if we would live all of our life on that lone island. Which portrait is above this text without a single contact with other people? Without the internet and other connections, we would not even know about the existence of other humans and things like meteorites and tsunamis. Would we in that case build things like spacecraft?  This is one version of Barren plateaus problem. Because we think that we are alone. And because of that, we have no stimulus or motivation to make new things.  Without information, we don't recognize risks. And risks are the things that motivate us to create new technical solutions.  When we are thinking about intelligence, we must remember that intelligence is not enough. When we want to create technology. We also need motivation for research and development.  In most cases, the reason for...

The quantum mind has electric dreams.  If artificial intelligence will connect with virtual simulation. It can give it the "imagination" or abstract thinking.  The new findings of quantum systems are the key to creating flat quantum processors. The light source called "soliton" (1)  can create solitary pulses with consisting timing(2). That thing can benefit the flat quantum processors. Which are necessary for compact-size quantum computers.  If we are thinking that a flat quantum processor is two graphene layers that are less than the atom-size distance from each other the system might benefit from the quantum algorithms that keep the ion standstill in a certain position(3). That thing can use for creating new and more compact quantum microchips. In that system, the ions like protons will keep hovering in a certain position.  And the quantum annealing will turn those protons to operate as the qubit. Quantum-based artificial intelligence can use the three types ...

 ExoMars discovered water from the Mars Grand Canyon. Image 1 "Artist’s impression of Mars Express. The background is based on an actual image of Mars taken by the spacecraft’s high resolution stereo camera. Credit: Spacecraft image: ESA/ATG medialab; Mars: ESA/DLR/FU Berlin" (ScitechDaily/ExoMars Discovers Hidden Water in Mars’ Grand Canyon – The Largest Canyon in the Solar System) The finding of water is the big step for the plans that made for creating a manned Mars station in the future. And also that water can use as fuel in the sample returning mission. In the last case, that water will break electrolytically into oxygen and hydrogen. And the rocket that rises samples to orbiter can use those elements as fuel and oxygen.  A similar mixture is used in the Saturn V rocket's second and third stages. The use of hydrogen and oxygen mean that the rocket is leaving only water behind it. The thing that causes pollution in the hydrogen-oxygen rocket is the electrolytic proce...

     Nature can give models for the next generation robots and microchips. "MIT researchers have pioneered a new fabrication technique that enables them to produce low-voltage, power-dense, high endurance soft actuators for an aerial microrobot. Credit: Courtesy of the researchers" (SciTechDaily/Giving Bug-Like Bots a Boost: New Artificial Muscles Improve the Performance of Flying Microrobots) Muscle cells can rotate small-size generators.  The MIT researchers are creating new. Low voltage artificial cells for improving the performance of the microrobots. (1)This is one way to improve the operational areas of small-size flying robots. There is another way to make the power source that uses biological components. The idea is that the muscle cells of flies would connect to cranks.  And those systems are rotating miniaturized generators. This kind of robot can drink sugar-liquid. And the muscle cells can be natural but genetically transformed that they cannot split...

   The need of the customer plays a primary role in data technology.  Determining the use of the system is important because that makes systems effective, and the multi-use tools might first seem more uncomfortable and slower than single-use systems. The thing is that when the power of the hardware is rising. Code that is driven on the hardware is turning more complicated.  And the similar advantage continues in quantum computers. The need to drive more complicated code for more independently operating artificial intelligence. Causes that also the power of quantum computers must increase. The thing that makes this need is that if some researcher can leave the entire routine process for computers that releases the time of that person for some other things.  In scientific work and other duties, boring mechanical works can be left for AI-driven systems.  The AI can use for routine duties like observing the searching the changes in the brightness of the stars. ...

    Precise logic vs. fuzzy logic. The "barren plateaus" trap is one of the most cutting edge things in computing sciences. The precise data handling is working perfectly in a closed and very unilateral environment. But in the open environment, fuzzy logic is a more effective tool.  And the power of fuzzy logic increases whenever the environment is turning larger and the data is turning more versatile. Fuzzy logic is in the key role for handling non-sorted data mass that is collected from the natural and chaotic environment.  Have you imagined the situation that you go to the flat, where everything is in a certain order? You can't find anything from there, and then some other person comes in. That person finds everything that is needed less than the second.  You cannot ever find anything faster than that person because that person knows everything in that room. The person knows every single nail in that flat. And that thing makes an impression.  But th...

   Machine learning needs stimulus for making solutions.  "A barren plateau is a trainability problem that occurs in machine learning optimization algorithms when the problem-solving space turns flat as the algorithm is run. Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed theorems to prove that any given algorithm will avoid a barren plateau as it scales up to run on a quantum computer." (https://www.lanl.gov/discover/news-release-archive/2021/March/0319-barren-plateaus.php) Have you heard of a "barren plateaus" problem? The name of that problem is coming from the J.R.R Tolkien book. Wherein the fictive Middle land is the very dry and hot place. The image, above this text, introduces the "barren plateaus" problem very well.  In the next example, the food and water are the information. If a creature lives in the "fresh plateaus" it can take nutrients from nature. There is a bigger chance to make mistakes. But the nutrient is versatile...
