bsod’s braindumps

A little gem on #philosophical…

LionClan:  The universe is an elevenfold manifold that manifests
              as a fourfold manifold between three kinds of
              sevenfold singularities
bsod: that sounds very superstringy
LionClan:  we see and feel with fourfold vectors like photons
              and electrons, it is understandable our first guess
              was the universe is four dimensional

Some google techtalks

The ‘Your brain at work‘ talk is really worth it, if you’re interested in how your brain solves problems…

• Google techtalk: Your Brain at Work.(also note the talk The Mechanism of Thought by Hecht-Nielsen)
• Google techtalk: Nutrients for Better Mental Performance.
• Google techtalk: Leadership and Vision.

• Quantum Computing Day 1: Introduction to Quantum Computing.
• Quantum Computing Day 2: Image Recognition with an Adiabatic Quantum Computer.
• Quantum Computing Day 3: Does an Explanation of Higher Brain Function require Quantum Computers.

I’ll also post a bunch of very good physics courses (by Leonard Susskind):

• Quantum Entanglements: Part 1
• Modern Physics: Quantum Mechanics
• Modern Physics: Classical Mechanics
• Modern Physics: Special Relativity
• Modern Physics: Einstein’s Theory
• Modern Physics: Cosmology
• Modern Physics: Statistical Mechanics
• Quantum Entanglements: Part 3
• New Revolutions in Particle Physics (2010)

LHC is up and running

The Large Hadron Collider is doing its first succesful experiments.
