A Christmas Computer Bug, and the Future of Files
(0) | 30/12/2015 | Translate: In 1987, a German student wrote CHRISTMA EXEC – a virus whose basic mechanisms still work if you port them to today’s desktop computers. Why haven’t we changed in nearly 30 years? And what could we do instead?
How transistors work Modern computers are revolutionizing our lives, performing tasks unimaginable only decades ago. This was made possible by a long series of innovations, but there’s one foundational invention that almost everything else relies upon: the transistor. Gokul J. Krishnan describes what a transistor is and how this small device enables all the amazing things computers can do. - Modding. Custom case for computer (Battletech/Mech Warrior style). Continue work on computer case in the style of BattleTech (Mech Warrior). A distinctive feature of the Vulture (Mad Dog) have always been two huge missile launchers – in this video we are going to do... Also add a couple of sensors for temperature control on the Arduino and RGB led backlight. Time work took a lot, but I, as usual, tried to cover scope of work in the most compressed form, so as not to bore You)

The world’;s ugliest music | Scott Rickard | TEDxMIA Scott Rickard has degrees in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Electrical Engineering from M.I.T. and MA and PhD degrees in Applied and Computational Mathematics from Princeton University. At University College Dublin, he founded the Complex & Adaptive Systems Laboratory, where biologists, geologists, mathematicians, computer scientists, social scientists and economists work on problems which matter to people. He is passionate about mathematics, music and educating the next generation of scientists and mathematicians. - What a quantum computer sounds like IBM just released an immersive audio visual tour of their Q lab, where the company researches quantum computers. What you're hearing could be the sound of the future.
- Giant Aquarium Cracks in Restaurant Occurred on December 25, 2017 / Houston, Texas, USA "On Christmas Day, I picked up my mom from her memory care to take her out to Vietopia for dinner. I was about to give the hostess my name when all of a sudden we heard a loud noise and screams. It sounded like something had fallen and when I looked that way, I saw water pouring out of the large aquarium in a large stream. People at three tables had to move after getting wet. The staff took immediate action and placed large garbage cans on the floor to collect the water. Eventually the water drained enough to allow one of the staff to climb into the tank to work on saving the fish with a net."
Kino: Kinetic, “;living”; jewelry for dynamic fashion This work explores a dynamic future where the accessories we wear are no longer static, but are instead mobile, living objects on the body. Engineered with the functionality of miniaturized robotics, this "living" jewelry roams on unmodified clothing, changing location and reconfiguring appearance according to social context and enabling multitude presentations of self. With the addition of sensor devices, they transition into active devices which can react to environmental conditions. They can also be paired with existing mobile devices to become personalized on-body assistants to help complete tasks. Attached to garments, they generate shape-changing clothing and kinetic pattern designs–creating a new, dynamic fashion. - Phase-Functioned Neural Networks for Character Control We present a real-time character control mechanism using a novel neural network architecture called a Phase-Functioned Neural Network. In this network structure, the weights are computed via a cyclic function which uses the phase as an input. Along with the phase, our system takes as input user controls, the previous state of the character, the geometry of the scene, and automatically produces high quality motions that achieve the desired user control. The entire network is trained in an end-to-end fashion on a large dataset composed of locomotion such as walking, running, jumping, and climbing movements fitted into virtual environments. Our system can therefore automatically produce motions where the character adapts to different geometric environments such as walking and running over rough terrain, climbing over large rocks, jumping over obstacles, and crouching under low ceilings. Our network architecture produces higher quality results than time-series autoregressive models such as LSTMs as it deals explicitly with the latent variable of motion relating to the phase. Once trained, our system is also extremely fast and compact, requiring only milliseconds of execution time and a few megabytes of memory, even when trained on gigabytes of motion data. Our work is most appropriate for controlling characters in interactive scenes such as computer games and virtual reality systems.
- Repair Truck Causing Accidents 12/13/16 - One vehicle slide off hit a Comcast box in Indianapolis. Comcast repair trucks parked on the road and placed 4-5 cones at the bottom of the hill they were working at. This caused 5 slide offs. I personally warned another arriving Comcast truck of the slide offs and danger of parking at the bottom of the hill. He blew me of because he "had a job to do". Minutes later there was a crash because of the blocked lane. Multiple people were placed in danger. Even after the accident happened in front of them, they continued to work not changing any of their "safety" procedures. They showed ZERO concern for the safety of people before or after the accidents. People at the scene got out their own barriers and directed traffic while Comcast finished and left the scene.
- Amazing Boxing! The FASTEST GIRL, 3 years after triumph, Camaya FAST GIRL, 3 years later This video is not just motivation for sport. This video is the MOTIVATION FOR LIFE.
It is necessary to implement Evnika's training into the system of public education. I'm not kidding. Our head with his family, has developed a unique training system, we are dreaming to introduce the system to public education. Let's build our future !!!
"Trees are our quirks. You need to look at how the special exercises with Evnik simulator affects on the development of children's motor skills.
In short, training system develops certain motor skills, with emphasis on the development of the nervous system. There is excess underdevelopment of neuro muscular coordination and movement of the child becoming "non-human" character, movements become stronger, faster and therefore powerful. This potential can be used in any kind of sports, ranging from ballet and ending with the football. We are boxers and that's why we apply this system to our narrow specialized needs. Our life, our successes and failures do not concern of the science that we have opened. Do not pay attention to what we do. It is important that we have achieved the highest results not with one child and an adult. It works. And tomorrow, this technology can help all children. In my estimates, after the revolution in sports comes the evolution of man, because the special work of neuro muscular system displays the potential of an organism to a whole new level of development. You can not imagine how it will affect the technological progress in general, much of what we have today will have to throw out, because our children suddenly will become different."
- How computer memory works In many ways, our memories make us who we are, helping us remember our past, learn and retain skills, and plan for the future. And for the computers that often act as extensions of ourselves, memory plays much the same role. Kanawat Senanan explains how computer memory works.
Sketchpad –; CAD program in 1963 with a graphical user interface This video is a TV show made about the software Ivan Sutherland developed in his 1963 thesis at MIT's Lincoln Labs, "Sketchpad, A Man-Machine Graphical Communication System", described as one of the most influential computer programs ever written. This work was seminal in Human-Computer Interaction, Graphics and Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs), Computer Aided Design (CAD), and contraint/object-oriented programming. While watching this video, remember that the TX-2 computer (built circa 1958) on which the software ran was built from discrete transistors (not integrated circuits -it was room-sized) and contained just 64K of 36-bit words (~272k bytes). - Hot Robot At SXSW Says She Wants To Destroy Humans Robotics is finally reaching the mainstream and androids - humanlike robots - are everywhere at SXSW Experts believe humanlike robots are the key to smoothing communication between humans and computers, and realizing a dream of compassionate robots that help invent the future of life.
