Where do we need scholars?

Mysteries are fascinating things. And without mysteries are no scholars, and sometimes some people tell a joke that scholars are behind some mysteries because we want to keep our jobs. Jokes are a good argument for crushing researchers. Press introduced  Charles Darwin as a monkey when he introduced the evolution theory. That thing was very nice because a couple of hundred years earlier that man would burn on the bonfire.  The best receipt is that tell people that all mysteries are urban legends, and then after that, some jokes about the researcher's mental health make an impression.  If we follow that track, we face the argument:  humans invented all things, that we can. And we don't need anything new. And everything that we can find is found. So that's why we don't need any new things. We can solve all things by taking assault rifles in our hands and that's it. If there is some Big Foot in the forest we can shoot it. And there is no BigFoot anymore. But does that ...

Criticism is allowed if its target is a henchman.

The reason why NATO and the UN failed in Afghanistan was that they wanted to build a society from the top to the ground. The situation is similar as we try to build the house and build the roof first. The problem with society is that regular people must support the system.  The reason why we have so many foreign workers in many countries is not that they are cheaper. One of the reasons can be that those foreign workers are easy to kick off. And they will not hang on the hoods after retirement. Foreigners would not return to that workplace. After the fire from their jobs. And that is one logic behind foreign workers. They are easy to remove from society.  When we are critical. We must realize one rule: it's easy to be critical. If we are supervisors. It's easy to use and demand criticism, especially if the target for criticism is a henchman or some other person.  But if a henchman introduces criticism against a supervisor or ourselves. The community saw this kind of critic...

Robert Bartini and his dreams: ground-effect and invisibility.

Invisible aircraft and nuclear-powered bombers that used ground-effect (Ekranoplan)were Bartini's most radical ideas. There is no information if the original idea of Bartini that remained as a theoretical concept planned to be nuclear-powered. The Business Insider tells that the concept above this text planned refueled by submarines.  But there is a possibility that Russia planned to create a nuclear-powered ekranoplan in that country. Things like the nuclear-powered Tu-95 Bear-class bomber called Tu-95 LAL tell that in the Soviet Union were many radical concepts in aviation. And one of them could be a super- or even a hypersonic nuclear-powered strategic bomber.  Robert Bartini (1895-1974) was an amphibious- and ground-effect aircraft development pioneer. He was a Hungarian who worked in the Soviet Union. He was the father of some of the most radical aircraft concepts in history.   "Caspian-Sea monster" ekranoplans are based on Bartini's research. Bartini's last ...

Researchers connected catfish and alligator genomes.

Above is the portrait of Digenes the Sinope. Philosopher. Who sends his dogs to shop for him. This story from ancient Greece inspired researchers to create the hybrid species. Those hybris species are made for researching the behavior of the individuals, but sometimes people are talking about things like intelligent pets, that purpose is to serve humans like dogs served Diogenes the Sinope.  The military is, of course, interested in genetically engineered animals and hybrid animals like wolf-dog hybrids. Hybrid animals are not interested in other animals and especially opposite genders.  That makes them safe for their operators. Those hybrid animals will not make things like start to bark in the patrol and alarm the entire enemy troops.  The database collected in CRISPR and nanotechnology is the ultimate combination. If we want to transform certain abilities from one species to another, we must precisely know the DNA sequence where that certain ability is. By using geneti...

Computing is hardware and software.

  Powerful computing requires both hardware and software.  Computing is the combination of hardware and software. Things like powerful artificial intelligence require lots of power. But they can make things like the internet more powerful tools in history. The AI can measure the speed of the internet connection and optimize the result. That it gives for that certain speed. And that makes it more flexible than regular internet. The idea is that the AI uses a similar protocol to PHP. The server drives the AI and it sends the result to the client. And that thing makes it possible to use AI by using slower connections and cheaper platforms like tablets and laptops.  If we think about AI as a cloud-based solution that interconnects multiple different systems we can model the situation where the dynamic AI will call more platforms to assist it, when it cannot make the solution alone. That kind of system can use the reserves of the CPU of all platforms in the same network segmen...

The brain is full of silent synapses.

  There are millions of silent or cold synapses in our brains. In this text, the terms "silent", cold and dead synapses mean the same thing. We are using only a part of our brain potential. Sometimes some researchers created models to increase the number of used neurons. But those ideas have remained at the philosophical level.  There are reserve neurons in the brain. That mission is to replace neurons that are in danger. When the brain must renew some of its neurons. It must transfer all memory blocks stored in that neuron to the next generation. The memory blocks that are gone with dead neuron is the reason. For we say that "neurons will not renew".  When memory blocks stored in the neuron are gone, the next generation neuron cannot make the same missions as its successor.  There is the possibility that those silent neurons are used only in early brain development. That means when brains are in progress. Those silent synapses are used to create and control the neu...

The gravitational waves and antigravitation.

Black holes are sending gravitational waves. And one of the reasons that can make this kind of thing possible is that a black hole radiates gravitational radiation away and pulls everything else from it. So the black hole itself would involve a gravitational vacuum.  In some other explanation for gravitational waves, the core structure of a black hole called singularity acts like a gravitational sling. That gravitational sling sends the wave movement moves out from the black hole's center.  When that wave movement hits the wave that falls in the Black Hole's center. That causes gravitational waves. That shakes the event horizon. When the power of gravitational waves rises when they impact with another wave that causes a situation that the gravitational waves could escape from the black hole.  The big thing in gravitation is that it is wave movement. So we could say that gravitation is radiation. Or we can say that gravitation is like a magnetic field but different frequen...

Gravitational waves or ripples in spacetime could point to the place of the Big Bang.

  The point where the Big Bang happened should be in the middle of the universe. But the fact is that is the exact point. Where the Big Bang happened could also be moved. Or the universe around that point is moved asymmetrically. The idea is that some remnant of the Big Bang is a supermassive black hole.  And that remnant involves information about the Big Bang itself. But the problem is that we should find the first black hole that formed just after the Big Bang. That is a very difficult thing to do in real life. All black holes look similar.  So researchers should find the right black hole. And then they could listen to the echoes from the universe's first moments. The thing is that the first gravitational waves. That left from the Big Bang traveling the outside the edge of the universe. The shockwave that formed in the Big Bang can call, as the "edge of the universe". When we are thinking about the form of the most outpoint of the universe there should be a small densi...

A quantum fan can act as a quantum antenna.

Each spectrum's color can act as the individual state in the qubit.  A nanowire photon detector or quantum fan can enable quantum communication. And this kind of quantum antenna can play a key role in quantum communication. Almost anything can form the quantum antenna. And in some models things like rainbows can use to detect quantum messages.  But one thing limits this type of innovation. The idea of that kind of antenna is that when quantum information or qubit interacts with the photons or some other information that travels in the antenna. That causes flash. The thing is that things like different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation in quantum systems can act as the state of the qubit. So each color in the spectrum can act as a qubit's state. And theoretically, the rainbow can act as a quantum antenna.  The system must determine zero-point and keep it stable. Only zero-point. That determined with enough accuracy, can make quantum communication possible. Zero poin...

Quantum physics determine how to control two light sources rather than one.

Why handling two quantum light sources is important in quantum systems? And especially in quantum data-handling systems. That allows sending identical dataflows in two data handling (or computing) lines. By using this technology is possible. To create expanding quantum information network. The only limit to that thing is the power of the information or energy waste in the system.  When a light beam or information reaches some quantum unit in the quantum system. That unit absorbs a small part of the energy. So the system needs outcoming energy stimulation for growth.  The idea is that at the end of each line is the quantum "hill" that doubles the information lines. And that makes it possible to create a theoretically endless number of quantum data lines. The thing requires that each data handling line has a system that brings outcoming radiation emission in the quantum light beam. That helps to replace missing energy that denies the system expansion.  On the right side of ...

AI and quantum computers are the ultimate combinations.

Why cosmic superbubble's magnetic fields are interesting? The answer is that the common magnetic field determines the border of the local cosmic bubble. But the common magnetic field and certain energy levels determine the quantum system.  One of the things that can determine the quantum system is the certain energy level or the state of the participants of the quantum system. Or we should rather say that the thing that determines the quantum system is that it's the group of participants that can exchange information with each other.  When we want to make things like a quantum computer. We must bring information from outside to the quantum system.  If we cannot make that thing the quantum computer is useless. Same way, if the errors that a quantum computer makes cannot be detected and correlated, that makes quantum computers useless.  In some visions, the nanotechnological computer that is put into orbit in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) can use to make the error co...

Time is relative, said Albert Einstein.

  Time is relative, said Albert Einstein.  Time is relative: Writing about the nature of time and time travel's principles.  The idea of H.G Wells's time machine is that a rotating disk causes time dilation. Then the WARP bubble allows that disk to accelerate to very close to the speed of light.  Theoretically, there is nothing wrong with that system. The system creates a WARP bubble in the air. And then. The rotating plate's speed can increase to the speed of light.  And after that, the earth's gravitation causes virtual crossing at the speed of light. The remarkable thing is that H.G. Wells wrote his novel "The Time Machine" in 1895.    Albert Einstein introduced time dilation in 1905 in his "Special relativity". "General relativity",  published in 1916.  Albert Einstein meant general relativity to handle the gravitational effect in strong gravitational fields.  The only thing, that denies H.G Wells's time machine from working is ...

Why can the UV pumps used for disinfecting incoming air decrease the quality of air inside?

UV pumps that used for killing organisms from the air. That ventilation pumped inside can cause problems. There is research, that the UV pump can cause problems with air inside houses. Says the research made by the University of Helsinki. That research has focused on the particles in the room if so-called UVGI systems cleaned the air. The reason for that particle level increases could be that the UV- radiation ionizes the air. And that pulls particles inside the space or rooms, where the UV system sterilizes the air. But there is another problem that can cause a dangerous situation. If the level of UV radiation is too low, that can increase the level of infectious bacteria.  Wrongly used UV disinfectors can decrease air quality if their radiation is too weak. That thing causes the effect. Where the organisms that have the strongest genomes remain alive. And UV radiation just kills organisms with weak genetic material.  Similar technology is used for refining organisms for biol...

Early life experiences might have a big influence on genomes.

When a person is stressed. That thing affects sleep and immune defense. Also if the person is stressed. That has a big effect on the food that a person eats. If the immune system acts the wrong way, and the person eats the wrong way like getting too low doses of vitamins. That thing affects genetic material and the lifetime of the person.  Early life experiences might affect genetic material even over generations. When we think about cases where the person is isolated or cheated in schools that can cause a situation that the person will marry and gets children in older age than other people.   Also, negative social experiences at young ages can cause a situation. Where a person will go to the wrong company. And things like violent behavior. And those things can harm bone marrow or sexual organs. Or the person must start to use psychiatric medicals.  Those medicals can affect the genitals and gametes. Some psychiatric medicals decrease sexual willingness.  And th...

The digital "demon": how to increase the quantum computer's power? (Part2)

The key element in qubit is how users can be sure that its value is zero before the system starts to transfer data to it. The normal way is to decrease the temperature of the qubit to zero kelvin. In fact. That thing is probably not necessary in the future.  The system can take any temperature or energy level to zero point. The zero point could be, for example, 20 degrees Celsius.  The zero point is the point. Where the system starts to transfer data to the qubit. The problem with high-temperature qubits is how to control their oscillation. But if the system can keep the energy level stable that thing can revolutionize quantum computing. When zero-point is determined. The system can make superpositions and entangled pairs of elementary particles.  And then the system will operate for a while. The problem is that the energy level between both ends of quantum entanglement must not be the same.  If the energy level of superpositioned and entangled particles is the same....

The digital "demon": how to increase the quantum computer's power?

Quantum computers are powerful tools. But they are useful only if they can solve problems with a very high probability. The probability that the answer is right is not enough. The system must confirm that the answer is right. Or it cannot use in functional control systems.  The system is useless if it cannot give the right answers or if the user cannot confirm the answer. And only one wrong answer means that the calculation goes wrong. If that thing happens in the nuclear power plants the results could be devastating.  The system requires an error-detecting protocol. In some versions, the system uses two main lines for some calculations. That means if those two lines give the same answer. There is the possibility that the answer is right. In that model, the system uses two separate, individual operating units for making the calculations.  In some versions, the system uses multiple qubits or groups of qubits for the calculations. The system makes the statistics about the a...

The cosmic inflation. And the thing that shouldn't be.

Image 1)  Image 2)  Image 1) This is what cosmic inflation should be. The universe's expansion should accelerate all the time because the gravitational effect turns weaker when the distance of particles increases.  Image 2) This is what cosmic inflation is... The universe's expansion is too slow. That means theory and reality don't match. The image below is the theoretical model of the acceleration of the universe's expansion should be faster than it is. And that means we should re-estimate the cosmic inflation.  The image on the top is what the universe's expansion should be. And the second image is what the expansion looks like. So that is the thing that some astronomers want to rule out cosmic inflation. The expansion of the universe is not as strong as it should be.  And that causes problems. So there is the fixed model of cosmic inflation. In that model the inflation is two-staged. 1) Just after the Big Bang. Cosmic inflation was extremely powerful. In the ...

The omega-point. The ultimate end of the line.

French philosopher and Jesuit priest  Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881–1955). described the omega point like this. The universe can advance to complexity and knowledge only if something pulls it to complexity and awareness. Without the need, the creature will not turn complex. Without the need for complexity, the creature remains simple.  So Teilhard might mean that all are aware, intelligent, and complex creatures. Somehow are always forced to be complex, aware, and intelligent. Without force, the creature will not reach complexity, awareness, and intelligence.  Teilhard doesn't mention the thing that forces the creature to be intelligent having awareness and complexity. Only creatures, that are complex themselves can make complex things.  So the thing that creates the knowledge and complexity could be natural without awareness, like a thunderstorm. Or it can be the genome researcher who has the goal to make something like new species or superhuman. When the researc...

How to release the creativity of conventional thinkers?

The main problem with so-called silent knowledge is how to make that person who has silent knowledge share that knowledge with others people. When we are thinking about silent knowledge we must realize that silent knowledge that keeps in people's heads doesn't benefit the company. So how to motivate people to share that silent knowledge? All people have a similar brain. All people have similar neural structures. So why are all people not creative? That is one of the most interesting questions in psychology. There is made a research on how to wake up productive and creative thinking in regular people. But when we make those research we must remember that when people get space and support being creative. They turn to creativity.  That means we create the right environment that supports creativity. We can wake creative thinking in every person's mind. We are always jealous of people like Leonardo Da Vinci. We should realize what kind of benefit those people could bring to R...

Can teleportation be possible?

Theoretically, laser rays can transport even humans.  A hypothetical teleportation machine creates the photon cloud by stressing teleported objects' atoms with electromagnetic radiation. Then it will make quantum entanglement between those photons and the photons that are forming a hologram at the front of the object. Then the system must rise the teleported object's energy high enough. And that makes the object slide into the hologram.  This is writing about hypothetical teleportation. The only fact that I can tell about teleportation is that it is certainly possible at the quantum level. Quantum teleportation or quantum superposition and entanglement are the key elements in quantum computers. But can we someday transport 3D structures or even humans by using the same method?  There is the possibility that teleportation is possible only in 2D structures.  There is a possibility that somewhere in the future we can make real teleportation for 3D structures and chemica...

Can Chat GPT replace Google? The story of "productive" AI.

   Image: Pinterest Machine learning is the ultimate tool. But we are still far away from systems that are learning like a human. In the simplest model. Learning machines record the environment, and then the human user just stores those things for future use. Then the next time, the AI can automatically adjust the system by using those recorded values. So humans are needed for making the pilot case. And then, the system just repeats that case in the cases that follow the first one.  When we think of AI as an artist. We can select a couple of paintings from the net for the AI's database. Then the AI can simply share those images with three or more areas. And that it will connect those areas to the "new" painting. There is a possibility. That the number of stripes depends on the number of selected paintings or other images.   And then, the AI will take the top area from the first painting, the second area from the second painting, etc. So AI is not producing anyth...

AI doesn't create new things. They just recycle old ones.

Even the best AI cannot generate a thing. It just recycles old ones. When we think about paintings. And other things that AI. The truth is that it only connects details from sources that somebody else made. In real life, it connects information or details from multiple sources. The number of sources determines how effective and smooth results the AI can create. The weakness is that the AI doesn't understand what it does. Productive AI like Chat GPT selects a certain number of sources by using the search engine's results. Then the AI just select one or two paragraphs from those homepages and connects them to a new entirety.  And here is the danger. The AI doesn't know what is reading in those paragraphs. The thing is that the AI recognizes the paragraphs. But because it doesn't know what is reading in those paragraphs. The AI can choose something that doesn't belong to any topics in the text. That means AI is far away from human intelligence.   So do we need scholars...
