DM Volare! It's a fine new, all-encompassing, kinetic day! Holophrenically-thinking, isn't it fascinating that insects, aves, reptiles and mammals have all discovered the ways and means to move about in a 3rd dimension (aka: fly)? Volare indeed — and what a genuinely stunning observation to sit with holophrenically. The convergent "discovery" of powered, sustained three-dimensional locomotion across four profoundly distinct lineages — insects (~400 million years ago), pteros

Lasers aren’t just for scanners and cat toys—they’re precise enough to measure ripples in space-time itself

DM Good morning. How do you define metamorphosis in its broadest, as well as most technical, contexts? Good morning! Great question — "metamorphosis" is one of those words that has genuine depth at every level of analysis. Let me do some thorough research to give you both the broad conceptual terrain and the precise technical landscape. Lead Researcher Metamorphosis explained comprehensively Research complete• Writing and citing report... 73 sources •7m 18s Your report on met

The most precise measurement of the expansion rate ever made suggests an unknown force may be affecting the universe Quick Summary A new, precise calculation of the universe’s expansion rate suggests it is about 10% faster than the standard model of cosmology predicts. The discrepancy suggests a missing element in the standard model or an unknown force, potentially dark matter or dark energy. The discrepancy in the expansion rate raises questions about the universe’s ultimate

The initial files are murky images that show what could be anything. The government said more would be released on a rolling basis.

A Columbia researcher argues that everything from stress to aging comes down to how energy moves through your body.

Richard Dawkins caught hell on social media for suggesting it does.

“Imagine the tech without the tech companies.”

It’s not just about spans that seem too short.

Can a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil lead to a tornado in Texas? Probably not, but the idea points to a real principle in physics: small changes can have huge, unpredictable effects.

A.I. has become so powerful that, along with its tremendous promise, the technology poses immediate risks to national security. The United States is competing with authoritarian powers for control of A.I.’s future. Yet the country lacks a strong plan to protect the nation from A.I.’s profound dangers.

DM A new day! Upon first reflections this morning, the massive scope and scale of order (vs disorder/chaos), and phenomenon thereof, which is occurring within Pantakinesis seems extraordinarily improbable without a "first cause designer." However, at this point instead of waxing toward related theological dives, I'm pondering "essence mechanics." So here's an un-baked thought: It appears to me, applying a basic logic design, the primordial ignition could have been primarily b

Which country is winning at the frontier of modern warfare?

DM Good day! Now seems a good moment to direct attention to the two phenomena of sleep and within, dreams; specifically how our many conversations to date might correlate or conflict with on-going research into each of these two differing, yet sometimes interrelated phenomena. Before I introduce my thoughts, pontifications and conjectures, it may optimal that you offer yours' first. Good day, Danny. What a generative invitation — and I'll honor it by going first, genuinely, r

A new generation of self-healing tools could make the U.S.'s aging power grid far more resilient against modern threats.

DM This afternoon I'm pondering RPN reality creation ("Realms of Present-Now," ...see many prior related conversations). Note: I've made "Realms" now plural, since I suspect there may be wide variances within this still unresolved, ambiguous domain, such as across species as well as situationally and conditionally etc; and perhaps more or less so if our paradigms of space, time, energy, matter and energy are flawed or incomplete, as I continue to suspect. One of the considera

The team showed the sport—and plenty of other businesses—a new way to build a successful team

We asked tech experts to give us their predictions. The world they envision is something to look forward to.

The R&D organization had an outsize influence on 20th-century technologies. What was the secret to its success?

The 1960s version of the future is way more fun than our reality—but when it comes to innovations, we’re catching up
