Top 10 Unbreakable Ciphers And Codes – Top Tenz
Top 10 Unbreakable Ciphers and Codes In an age where we have satellites that can zoom in to watch an ant pee on a leaf, you’d think our society pretty much knows everything. Even with our high-speed, touchscreen, 3-D, Star Wars projectors, there are still a few ciphers and codes keeping cryptologists (trust us, it’s a word) stumped. Some of them come from way back in the 18th century. Even with the addition of advanced technology, ye ol’ pilgrims are proving that the smartest thing about our society might just be our phones.

Observing The Sky At MIT – MIT News
Observe@MIT is a series of astronomical observation sessions led by astronomer and planetary science lecturer Amanda Bosh. Members of the MIT community are encouraged to come and observe the sky above and learn about space and what there is to see on that particular day or night. Everyone is welcome to participate by looking through one of the telescopes and having a conversation with peers and astronomy enthusiasts alike up on the roof of building 37, on MIT’s campus in Cambridge, MA. To be alerted when there is an Observe session, join their mailing list: http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listin… Special thanks to the Alumni Class Funds for their contribution to Observe@MIT.

Electric Currents Create Cosmic Magnetic Fields – Thunderbolts Project
Scientists in Germany using the Hubble space telescope have detected extremely strong magnetic fields in a quasar which is said to be about 4 billion light years from Earth. The magnetic fields were measured at 200 million Gauss. In comparison, the strength of the magnetic field at Earth’s surface is only about one Gauss. The scientists state that the magnetic fields are very close to the quasar’s theoretical, central black hole. However, how confident should astrophysicists be in their ideas about cosmic magnetic fields, or their belief in the existence of black holes? Source story: http://www.q-mag.org/are-super-magnet… Discussion of the mystery of cosmic magnetic fields: http://phys.org/news/2011-05-cosmic-m… “Surprising” discovery of magnetic field in “young”…

The Peer-to-Peer Economy Goes Mainstream – Corbett Report
As we highlighted in a recent podcast, the peer-to-peer economy is transforming us from a society of middlemen (factories, distributors, corporations) into a society of independent producers capable of interacting directly with customers and like-minded communities. But now the P2P economy is being acknowledged by the mainstream as they attempt to play catch up on an idea that is threatening to topple the old system of control.

Imbecilic Dog-God-AI-Delusion – Singularity Utopia
Super-smart AI harming or enslaving humans is a fiction similar to gods. It is fitting to link the two idiotic delusions together, which Steve Wozniak did in March 2015. Gods have zero relevance to intelligence. Gods relate wholly to deluded people. Gods are delusional, they are an illusion, pure fantasy. Gods aren’t intelligent, they don’t exist. Gods are exactly identical to the AI fear, it is all nonsense. There will never be any AI risk. Beyond the folly of Steve Wozniak every AI doom-monger demonstrates idiocy regarding super-intelligence. Forgive my bluntness when I state these high-profile commentators are utter morons. Wozniak thinks humans could be pet dogs for super-intelligences. With…

Parkinson’s Diagnosis By Using A Keyboard – MIT News
In a new study from MIT, researchers show how analyzing people’s keystrokes as they type can reveal a great deal of information about the state of their motor function. (Learn more: http://bit.ly/1Inaj5u) Using the researchers’ algorithm for analyzing keystroke patterns could lead to the diagnosis of diseases that impair motor function, such as Parkinson’s disease, much earlier than is now possible.
