Nickel superconductor works above -233°C threshold at normal pressure

A team of engineers and physicists at Southern University of Science and Technology, in China, has created a nickel-based material that behaves as a superconductor above the -233°C (40 K) threshold under ambient pressure. In their study published in Nature, the researchers synthesized thin films of bilayer nickelate (La₂.₈₅Pr₀.₁₅Ni₂O₇) and found one that behaved as a high-temperature superconductor. The -233°C threshold (40 K), often associated with the McMillan limit, marks a boundary beyond which conventional superconductivity theories become less predictive. Scientists have been searching for a room-temperature superconductor that could revolutionize a wide range of technologies. The ability to achieve superconductivity without the need for costly and complex cooling systems would significantly reduce energy loss due to heat conversion in electrical transmission, leading to dramatic improvements in efficiency and cost reduction. This breakthrough could lead to advancements in numerous fields, including maglev trains, fusion reactors and MRI machine components. This new effort by the team in China represents another step in reaching the ultimate goal.

Kuron sakusei ni tsuite wa dodesu ka?

The concept of the human soul is deep, rooted in philosophy, religion, and spirituality. Its definition varies across different cultural and philosophical ideas. A textbook definition of the human soul might be considered as: “An immaterial, eternal, and indivisible essence that embodies the unique identity, consciousness, and spiritual nature of an individual human being. It is believed to transcend the physical body and is often associated with qualities such as morality, emotions, intellect, and the capacity for free will. In many religious and philosophical concepts, the soul is considered the core of human consciousness, the source, the locus of personal identity beyond the physical plain of death.” ~ChatGPT In this talk we will expand upon the human soul’s root in philosophy, religion, and spirituality. We are going to add physics, binary information systems, robotics, biomechanical, sociology, quantum mechanics, gravity and other technologies to this talk about the human soul. We will repeat ourselves often here. Be ready… 1) Is the human soul, a piece of quantifiable data?

In 1901, Duncan McDougall, a physician in Haverhill, Massachusetts attempted an experiment to determine whether the human soul has physical weight or not at the exact moment of death. The experiment was to use a very sensitive weight scale of the time period to weigh the body at the moment of death to test whether or not substantial mass leaves the body at the moment of death. The experiment did have results but could not be collaborated by other experiments, often the results were inconclusive, and the scientific community as a whole would later recognize McDougall’s experiments as unreliable. However, despite this, the experiment popularized the urban legend that the human soul weighs 21.3 grams. The question of whether the human soul can be measured or quantified gets into some pretty deep, critical thinking and problem solving thought experiments about what makes us, well, us… The soul is like the core of our identity, consciousness, and people have been talking about it since the first humans looked up at the sky and asked; “Each of us at some time in our lives, turns to someone - a father, a brother, a God... and asks...” “Why am I here? What was I meant to be?” “Is this all that I am? Is there nothing more?” ~Kirk/Spock talking about V’ger, “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” (1979).

Traditional religious ideas say the soul is beyond what science can measure. That the soul is beyond human comprehension. They see it as something divine, connected to God, and lasting forever. In more recent times, with all our technological growth since 1901, science tries to look at the soul in a more practical and scientific way. Religion says the human soul and God is beyond science and that is correct, “from a certain point of view.” ~Obi-Wan Kenobi, “Star Wars: A New Hope” (1977). Right now, that is true. Our complete knowledge of science, specifically physics, is extremely incomplete. We are trying to solve a problem with only a fraction of the data and science we need to tackle the problem. The amount of science-things we did not know in 1901 is daunting. We didn’t know back in 1901 what the structure and function of DNA was. We didn’t know about the existence and properties of subatomic particles such as electrons, protons, and neutrons yet. We didn’t have the theory of relativity proposed by Albert Einstein. Any concept of quantum mechanics and its implications for understanding the behavior of particles on a very small scale. No knowledge on the extent of the universe and the nature of galaxies beyond our own Milky Way or the role of bacteria and viruses in causing diseases. We didn’t have the causes and mechanisms of genetic inheritance or the full extent of Earth's geological history, including plate tectonics and continental drift. We were only in the infancy stages of the complexities of human psychology and the workings of the brain. The potential for space exploration and travel beyond Earth's atmosphere wasn’t even known as science-fiction yet. They were still calling these stories ‘fantasy.’ Flash-forward 123 years to 2024 and science learned all those things above that we did not have in 1901. Science uses tools like brain scans to understand how our brains work and how they relate to our thoughts and feelings. They think that maybe the soul is just the result of all the complicated processes happening in our brains. This might sound like they're taking away the magic from the idea of the soul, but it's more about trying to understand it in a new light. Some even wonder if we could create a kind of digital version of ourselves, keeping our memories and personalities alive in computers. So, while old beliefs say the soul is beyond measurement, new science is pushing us to rethink that. It's a big question that mixes religion, science, and our own deep thoughts about who or what we are. The human soul is a big puzzle that we keep trying to solve. It is part of what makes us human, always curious about the mysteries of our own existence.

2) Does the soul have mass? If so it ‘must’ obey the laws of physics in the form of the conservation of mass and energy, respectfully.

When we talk about whether the soul has weight, we're really asking if it behaves according to the laws that govern our physical reality, which is physics. The conservation of mass and energy says that you cannot just magically have “stuff” pop in or out of existence from nothing—it can only change shape or form. The conservation of mass and energy in its infancy was theorized as far back as 520 BCE by the Jain philosophy, a non-creationist philosophy based on the teachings of Mahavira, stated that the universe and its constituents such as matter cannot be destroyed or created. It was later expanded upon through expression dating back to Hero of Alexandria’s time. The law can be seen in the works of Joseph Black, Henry Cavendish, and Jean Rey. One of the first to outline the principle was Mikhail Lomonosov in 1756. He may have demonstrated it by experiments and had discussed the principle in 1748 through correspondence with Leonhard Euler. The conservation of mass and energy was later heavily defined in science when experiments later carried out by Antoine Lavoisier; who expressed his conclusion in 1773, and was popularized as the principle of conservation of mass and energy.

A friend of yours comes up to you with one of those giant cookies. Your friend cannot just make the cookie disappear or create a new one out of thin air. Instead, they can change the cookie into something else, like crumbs or energy when one eats it. The total amount of cookie-stuff (mass) and the energy it contains stays the same, even if it changes form. So, it's like saying you can't make something out of nothing, but you can transform what you have into different things. This is a universal law and everything of EVERYTHING physical applies to it except for a universal law that would combine gravity of the macro reality with that of the quantum one. Most of this statement is true. There is a slight misconception though. The principle of conservation of mass and energy does indeed assert that you cannot create or destroy matter or energy; instead, they can only change forms. However, the part about exceptions related to gravity and quantum mechanics is not entirely accurate. Conservation laws, including the conservation of mass and energy, are fundamental principles that apply universally to all physical processes, including those involving gravity and quantum mechanics. There is no exception to these conservation laws. While our understanding of gravity and quantum mechanics may lead to complexities in certain situations, the conservation of mass and energy still holds true as a fundamental principle governing the behavior of ALL Matter and Energy in the UNIVERSE.

When we talk about whether the soul has mass, it's important to think about what the soul really is? In relation to the law of conservation of mass and energy, the soul is energy, yes, but it is in a form our current understanding of physics cannot yet define. Under these circumstances we cannot ‘force’ our understanding of this till the science catches up. Take this ‘thing’ called the ‘soul.’ It’s obviously a ‘thing.’ It is a form of energy, but since we cannot yet quantify it in physical terms does it have to obey the laws of physics? That is the question that if we can answer it, then we can do something about that, with that. Traditionally, people think of it as something separate from the body, like a spirit. So, saying it has weight might sound strange because weight usually goes with things that have physical mass. We can touch and measure it. If a thing can be measured then it must obey the laws of physics. It cannot outright break the laws of physics. The only thing we can sort of understand that does this is a black hole. Nothing else discovered fits this definition. If the soul does have attributes that make it a real and tangible thing, which it is, because we experience it, but we cannot properly define it in science terms, it would have mass which means it has weight, it would mean it follows the rules of physics. Like how matter and energy can't just appear or disappear—they can only change from one form to another. This idea makes us think that maybe the soul is a part of the physical reality and interacts with it. In the end, whether the soul has mass and follows the rules of physics is still something we're trying to figure out. It's a big question that makes us think hard and brings together different ideas from religion, science, and philosophy. The actual truth lies somewhere in between all of that; and as we know none of these things play very well together in the sandbox at the park, we call the UNIVERSE...

3) However, do we even have ‘that great an understanding’ of all of physics?

We know next to nothing about physics as a whole. In doing research for this blog I found a “List of unsolved problems in physics,” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems_in_physics. Where I counted 121 separate subjected-areas of study that the human race cannot answer. There are loads more to discover and understand. As we make strides the answers and solutions tend to come in waves. We solve one problem it may shed light on others, opening up doors to all of the problems, all at once. Gradual improvements, adding new data, and solutions till the next discovery that opens the next door and the next. They can happen quickly or over long periods of time. Have no doubt though, there is a lot more to discover. When we put AI to these problems, this also may warrant some progress.

Our incomplete understanding of physics can be demonstrated in the 2014 Christopher Nolan film "Interstellar." That data from inside a black hole’s singularity can provide clarity on mastering energy, mass, and gravity into one grand unifying theory of everything. This premise touches upon several themes related to our lack of proper understanding of physics and the quest for knowledge that transcends current scientific boundaries. Black holes represent all the answers to all the questions we ever had about the universe and will ever have. The most extreme environments in the universe, where the laws of physics as we currently understand them literally break down into nonsense. This is the only thing in existence that has these attributes. Within a black hole's singularity, gravitational forces become infinitely strong, and space-time itself undergoes dramatic distortions warping the fabric of space-time onto itself. It is so heavy and the gravity is so strong it collapses onto itself where it pulls everything within its reach, into itself. The belief that accessing data from within a black hole could provide clarity on mastering energy, mass, and gravity stems from the notion that these extreme conditions may hold the key to unlocking new insights into fundamental physical phenomena of the universe. Humans seek this information in the quest for a unified theory of physics that reconciles quantum mechanics and general relativity. Current theories offer powerful explanations for phenomena at different scales, but they are not yet fully compatible or integrated into one another. The belief that data from within a black hole singularity could shed light on this unification reflects the desire to understand the underlying principles that govern the structure of the universe itself and at its most fundamental level.

Despite the progress made in the field of physics and technology, there are still many crazy things that elude explanation within the framework of quantum mechanics and general relativity. Dark matter, dark energy, and the nature of consciousness are just a few examples of mysteries that challenge our understanding of the universe on a daily basis. The belief that accessing data from within a black hole could save the human race stems from a recognition of the limitations of our current understanding of physics and a hope that new discoveries could provide solutions to pressing existential threats. It's important to note that "Interstellar" is a work of speculative fiction, and the concept of obtaining data from within a black hole singularity is a narrative device called a “macguffin,” main thing that is used to drive the plot and characters forward. While the film's premise is based on scientific principles, it takes liberties with current knowledge and concludes into the realm of speculative conjecture. Still, the film's exploration of these ideas sparks curiosity and imagination, prompting contemplation of these mysteries of the cosmos, the limits of human understanding and the imagination.

4) If the soul is quantifiable then how can it be described in binary?

The concept of translating the soul into binary code, a language of ones and zeros used in computers, is a thought-provoking idea that connects with many areas of study, like the brain, philosophy, and technology. While it opens up exciting possibilities for understanding consciousness, it also raises deep questions about who we are and the limits of our existence. Imagine if we could represent the soul, the essence of our consciousness, with just ones and zeros, like how computers store information. It suggests a way to simplify something complex into basic parts. But consciousness isn't like a simple computer program—it's a mix of thoughts, feelings, and experiences that can't easily be broken down into digital terms like binary code. Thinking about the soul in terms of binary also brings up big ethical questions. If we could copy someone's consciousness like we copy a computer file, what would that mean for our sense of self? Would we still be unique individuals, or just copies of each other? And should we even be messing with something as fundamental as our consciousness in that fashion? It is only now that we are gaining control over our genetics where we could, and probably will, alter our future evolutionary path. A few decades ago nature was in 100% control of future human iterations. Every couples of years now we gain more and more control over this process. It's not just about science and technology but also philosophy, ethics, and even our understanding of what it means to be human. If we ever figure out how to map the soul in binary, it would change everything we know about ourselves and our place in the world. But until then, it's a fascinating question that shows just how complex and mysterious the human mind really is. Just think of it though. Take your consciousness and put it into different bodies at will. Be an interesting dive.

5) Is it a clone of the body or the person itself? What if we make a bunch of Dwayne Johnson's (The Rock) but they only look, sound, identical and have individually different souls/minds?

Cloning brings up big questions about who we are and what makes us unique, especially when we think about whether we're cloning just the body or the individual- personality that also belongs to that original body. Imagine, making copies of Dwayne Johnson, also known as ‘The Rock.’ They might all look and sound exactly the same, but would they be the same person inside? Cloning technology can make genetically identical individuals, but it cannot copy everything that makes a person who they are. Things like memories, experiences, and personality are shaped by lots of different events, like how we're raised, where we grow up, and the people we interact with. So even if we made a bunch of Rock-clones and raised them all the same way, they'd probably end up being different people. Each clone would go through life in their own way, learning and growing based on their unique subjective experiences. This means they'd develop their own personalities and ways of thinking that are separate from each other. Even if they started out identical, they'd become individuals over time. When we talk about the soul, it adds another layer of complexity. Some people believe that there's something more to us than just our bodies and brains—that there's a soul or spirit that makes us who we are. Cloning might copy the body, but it can't copy whatever that ‘soul-stuff’ is. So, even if we could make a bunch of Dwayne Johnson clones, they wouldn't all be the same person. They'd each be their own individual with their own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. It's a reminder that even with all our technology, there's still a lot about being human that we don't fully understand. However, if we go back to mapping the entirety of one’s ‘soul’ into binary code? I mean, if we could actually do it and made it work. Now you could have a way to do it. Granted, we’d need one hell of a “macguffin.”

6) Can two identically copied consciousness’s coexist in the same space, time, and space/time simultaneously? Or would they cancel each other out if they came into direct physical contact with one another? From the science fiction film, “Timecop,” (1994), per the grandfather paradox.

The question of whether two identically copied consciousnesses could coexist in the same space, time, and space/time simultaneously delves into the realm of speculative science fiction and metaphysical philosophy. This concept raises profound questions about the nature of identity, the fabric of reality, and the potential consequences of encountering alternate versions of oneself by method of time travel. In popular science fiction scenarios like the grandfather paradox, time travel often serves as a narrative device to explore the complexities of causality and temporal dynamics. The paradox speculates a hypothetical scenario in which a time traveler goes back in time either accidently or purposefully to prevent their own grandfather from meeting their grandmother, thereby erasing their own existence. This scenario highlights the potential paradoxes and contradictions that arise when encountering alternate versions of oneself in the temporal continuum. In Peter Hyams 1994 film "Timecop," it is specifically stated that the same matter cannot occupy the same space at the same time. One cannot travel back in time and occupy the same exact space as their younger self. Coming into direct physical contact causes both pieces of matter, people, to annihilate themselves in a self-contained implosion of matter coming together and then vanishing from existence. In "Timecop," It's like trying to fit two puzzle pieces into the same spot—they just can't both be there at once. So, if someone from the future meets their younger self in the past, using this logic, and they touch each other or come into direct physical contact, it causes a kind of implosion. It's as if the matter from both versions of the person or object suddenly get squished together and then disappear in a few moments. Think of it like trying to shove two magnets with the same poles together—they repel each other so strongly that they can't stay in the same place. It's a unique way for the movie to show the consequences of creating a time paradox. The rule, ‘macguffin,’ that says two identical things cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Similarly, the idea of two identically copied consciousnesses coexisting in the same space/time raises intriguing philosophical dilemmas. Is the human soul, a piece of quantifiable data? Does the soul have mass? If so it would "have to obey the laws of physics” in the form of the conservation of mass and energy. Everything in the universe has to obey these laws. The only exception to the rule as of now is black holes. Do we even have ‘that great an understanding’ of all of physics? There are still many wonders that escape explanation within physics. The nature of consciousness is just one example of the mysteries that challenge our understanding of the universe. If the soul is quantifiable then how can it be described in binary, digital, terms or binary-code? Is it a clone of the body or the person itself? If consciousness is viewed as a fundamental aspect of individual identity, then encountering an identical copy of oneself could challenge one's sense of self, agency, God, creation and existence itself. Would the presence of another identical consciousness diminish or negate one's own sense of identity, leading to a cancellation of consciousnesses? Or would the two consciousnesses coexist harmoniously, each maintaining its unique perspective from the divergent point of view and agency within the shared reality? One possible interpretation is that the encounter between two identical consciousnesses could lead to a merging or integration of experiences and perspectives, resulting in a richer and more nuanced understanding of selfhood and existence. Alternatively, the encounter could give rise to existential conflicts and existential crises, as individuals grapple with the implications of encountering alternate versions of themselves that have different thoughts, feelings, perspectives and experiences from the observer’s point of view.

7) Religious implications... Is cloning against the God of religion, all religions?

The religious implications of cloning are deeply subtle and vary significantly across different religious traditions. While some religious perspectives may view cloning as inherently incompatible or as a violation of the sanctity of life, playing GOD, others may adopt more refined positions that consider the ethical and moral dimensions of cloning within a broader theological basis. Improving the quality of life by curing diseases with cloning-type technologies. Whether cloning is against the God of all religions, it's essential to recognize the diversity of beliefs and interpretations within all the religious communities. While certain religious traditions may explicitly prohibit or condemn cloning based on theological principles, others may offer more delicate perspectives that take into account the complexities of modern science and technology. For example, within Christianity, interpretations of the Bible vary widely, leading to divergent views on cloning. Some Christian denominations may view cloning as opposing to the biblical concept of God as the ultimate creator of life, while others may emphasize human gatekeeping over creation and the responsible use of scientific knowledge for the betterment of all-mankind. Within Islam, there is a range of opinions on cloning, with some scholars arguing that it is permissible within certain ethical guidelines, while others may express concerns about the potential ethical implications of cloning human beings. Probably not the best option to go digging into Islam for anything permissible and/or ethical. Much of the world sees Islam as dangerous and radical, but not for the faith in a God but how they treat anything that does not believe in what they believe, which is fundamentally wrong to force any idea onto another person or group. In Judaism, views on cloning also vary, with some Jewish scholars drawing on traditional ethical principles such as the sanctity of life and the concept of "tikkun olam" (repairing the world) to inform their perspectives on cloning. In Hinduism and Buddhism, the concept of reincarnation and the interconnectedness of all life influence attitudes toward cloning, with some believers expressing concerns about the potential disruption of karmic cycles or the creation of beings without a predetermined destiny. The question of whether cloning is against the God of all religions isn’t a straightforward question to answer. It requires careful consideration of theological principles, ethical values, and scientific insights within the context of ‘each religious tradition.’ While some religious perspectives may oppose cloning, others may offer more focused and contextualized approaches that seek to balance theological concerns with considerations of human welfare, pursuit of knowledge, and improving the quality of life for all-mankind. It will always come down to; does one, some, many, all believe in the one-God creation myth and it is a myth.

8) Sociology implications... What is the purpose of the clone? The intention?

Cloning brings up a lot of questions about how it is used and what it's meant for. Looking at why we clone things and what we want to do with them can tell us a lot about how cloning affects society as a whole. One big thing to think about is why we're cloning stuff in the first place. It's not just about making copies—it's about what we want those copies to do. Cloning could be used for all kinds of things, like treating diseases by making personalized medical treatments or helping people have babies when they can't do it on their own. When we use cloning for medical stuff, the goal is to make people healthier, happier and to live longer, healthier and happier. There is always going to be questions about who gets access to these treatments and whether everyone can benefit from them equally. On the other hand, when we use cloning for making babies, things get a bit more complicated. Some folks might want to clone themselves to keep their family line going or to have a child who's genetically related to them. Others might want to pick and choose specific traits for their baby, like picking out clothes from a catalog. Drawn to the prospect of creating "designer offspring" with desired traits. This will bring up big ethical questions about whether we're treating people like products and whether everyone should have the same chance to have kids the way they want. Cloning also raises concerns about identity and how clones fit into society. If someone is cloned for a specific purpose, like being a soldier or a worker, do they have the same rights as everyone else? And what happens if they rebel against their creators? Understanding the motivations and/or perversions behind each of these purposes is essential for assessing their societal implications. What about abuse of this technology? Build a Clone Army like in “Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones” (2002). The Arnold Schwarzenegger led 2000 film "The 6th Day," a man discovers he's been illegally cloned and must fight to reclaim his identity in a world where cloning is a dangerous reality. "The Island" (2005) - Directed by Michael Bay, follows a group of clones who discover the truth about their existence and rebel against their creators. "Splice" (2009) - Tells the story of two scientists who create a human-animal hybrid, leading to disturbing consequences. "Moon" (2009) - Follows a man working alone on a lunar mining base who discovers a shocking truth about his identity and purpose.

It's not just about making copies—it's about what those copies mean for all of us. 9) Cloning just parts for medical purposes?

Imagine if science could grow new body parts, like fingers or hands, from your own cells to replace ones you've lost in an accident. It sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, but it's a real possibility with cloning technology. This kind of medical cloning, called ‘regenerative medicine,’ has the potential to revolutionize healthcare, but it also brings up some big ethical questions. One of the main concerns is consent���making sure people have a say in what happens to their own genetic material. Even though growing replacement body parts could be a game-changer for people who need them, it's important to respect their right to choose whether or not to use this technology. You do not want your genetic material out there like some of your all’s personal data or signing it away to said company for them to allow you access like phone apps. They grow you a new leg and in-turn get to keep your genetic makeup for their own uses. I would think most would want control over those sorts of aspects. One can wonder though turning human tissue into a commodity. As cloning gets more advanced, there's a risk that body parts could be bought and sold like products on Amazon. To avoid this, we need strong, but very clear language, rules, and guidelines to make sure cloning is used responsibly and ethically in medicine and not for nefarious intentions. What must be understood are the complex context of cloning... Cloning for medical purposes and using it to make babies are not one in the same or even the same thing at all. The only thing they have in common is they use cloning technology to come their intentional outcome. Medical cloning here in this sub-point is all about making replacement tissues or organs to help people get better, while reproductive cloning is about making whole new organisms. Keeping these two things separate, we can focus on the medical benefits of cloning without getting caught up in ethical debates about creating life. There's still a lot we do not know about cloning, especially when it comes to just making parts instead of whole bodies. As previously stated we might not even be able to do this without the whole body. We have to be careful not to accidentally create conscious beings without realizing it. It's a tricky balance between using cloning to help people and making sure we're not doing anything unethical in the process. And therein lies the problem… By what specific criteria do humans judge a thing, anything, ethical and/or unethical? By what actual standard?

10) We can clone the body but, not the mind/spirit. Instead, science uses a way to create an image of a person's personality using their entire INTERNET history. See example “Caprica,” (2009) “Battlestar Galatica Re-imagined” (2004-2009) prequel series about how AI/Cylon is created in that fictionalized-Universe.

The concept of replicating a person's mind or personality using their internet history raises intriguing questions about the intersection of technology, ethics, and identity. While advancements in artificial intelligence and data analysis techniques have made it possible to analyze vast amounts of digital information, the idea of creating an accurate replica of a person's consciousness remains speculative and troubled in complexities. The ability to generate an image/copy of a person's personality based on their internet history opens up possibilities for understanding human behavior and understanding in unprecedented ways. By analyzing patterns in online activity, such as social media interactions, search queries, time eyes are tracked on specific things on your screen(s), comments you leave, notes you take and digitally save and browsing habits, researchers may gain insights into the details of individual personalities and decision-making processes. This could have applications in fields such as marketing, psychology, and personalized healthcare. However, privacy concerns loom large, as the collection and analysis of personal data from online sources raise questions about consent, autonomy, and the potential for surveillance and manipulation. The unauthorized use of individuals' digital footprints to create virtual replicas of their personalities without their explicit consent could violate their rights to privacy and self-determination. On the other side of this how accurate could this possibly be? There's the question of how well computers can really understand human stuff. Sure, they're good at crunching numbers and spotting patterns, but they're not so great at understanding emotions or social situations. So, even if they analyze all your internet history, they might miss out on the real you—the one with all the messy feelings and thoughts that don't always show up online. Or do they? Not everything you do online reflects who you are in real life. People don't always act the same way online as they do in person. Many don’t actually. So, even if they collect all this data about you, it might not paint an accurate picture. Not everyone or even most are verbatim who they are in real life using their computer. Much is lost in translation. An example would be do you post everything that comes into your mind as far judgements go on all your social media platforms? No of course not, most do not, while some actually do though. We see you Karen… What I am saying here is if one often thinks in those terms and then does not replicate that same logic, attitude, and behavior in the way they use a computer, smartphone or the internet. How accurate would that image be when compared to the real you? Much is lost in translation. AI would have to fill in the gaps with its own interpretation of that same logic. In order for a copy of something to be perfect it has to be perfectly copied. While artificial intelligence algorithms may excel at identifying patterns in data, they may struggle to capture the degrees of human consciousness and subjective experience. In most science fiction AI tends to struggle with understanding, conceptually, what the ‘human element’ actually is and how it functions. Factors such as context, emotion, and social dynamics are difficult to quantify and replicate accurately, raising doubts about the reliability of personality replicas generated from computer data and internet history alone. If we went by my own internet history I would appear to be a sci-fi nerd obsessed with cloning humans haha… While it's fascinating to think about recreating personalities from internet data, there's still a lot we don't know. It's like trying to copy a painting without knowing all the colors—it might look similar, but it won't be quite right. It would be something familiar but likely a hyper-radical of a portion of that person’s personality but not their personality verbatim.

Ok, see what I mean? I do not think I can just say “CLONING” in a simple way and it just be understood. In my defense, cloning isn't exactly a simple concept... It isn’t a MEME or TIKTOK—it's a complex subject that touches on various fields.

Science helps us understand the natural world, including our bodies and minds. It guides us in thinking about how cloning could work and what it might mean. Technology is key in making cloning happen. We must think about the ethics of using it to create and manipulate life. Robotics we are getting pretty good at in recent years. Making robots that act more-like humans. So, how close are we to making biological copies, too? Biomechanical looks at how living things interact with machines. It helps us think about creating biological beings that are part-human, part-machine. Medicine is all about health and healing, but when it comes to cloning, we have to consider the ethics of tinkering with our bodies. Sociology is about how we live together in society. So, we need to think about how cloning might change our social norms and values. Different religions have their own views on the soul and what makes us human. So, we have to think about how cloning fits into these beliefs as well. Spirituality explores beliefs about the soul and what lies beyond the physical world. It's important to consider how cloning might challenge and/or open up these beliefs. Philosophy dives into big questions about life, consciousness, and who we are. It helps us think about things like the soul, whether cloning is ethical, and what it means for our identity. The psychology of it digs into how our minds work. The psychological impact of cloning on people. Physics tells us about the rules that govern the universe. Understanding these helps us see how cloning fits into the bigger picture. While metaphysics looks at reality beyond what we can touch and see. It ponders how our souls fit into the physical world and then later into the spiritual one. Computers use binary code (ones and zeros) to do stuff. Can we really quantify and copy something as complex as human consciousness with it? Conservation of mass and energy are basic rules of the universe. Understanding how they apply to the soul and cloning helps us think about what's fathomable. Quantum mechanics explores the weird reality of tiny particles. Could quantum stuff affect consciousness and cloning? A complete understanding of gravity would be a big deal in how we understand how the universe works. The theory of everything, that grand theory that explains everything in the UNIVERSE. How might this tie into cloning and our understanding of the soul? What we are missing in physics is we do not know everything about how the universe works. So, there are still gaps in our understanding of consciousness, how cloning might affect it and basically most other subjects connected to it, which is EVERYTHING...

Cloning isn't just about making copies—it's a journey through science, ethics, philosophy, religion, and what it means to be a ‘THING,’ existing, at all. Being human…

Enter the Warriors Gate (2016)

Enter the Warriors Gate a.k.a. The Warriors Gate is bad but kind of cute. I could even see some viewers looking past its numerous and obvious flaws and having a good time. That ending though; it’ll convince just about everyone that what they just saw has been done better elsewhere.

Teenaged Jack Bronson (Uriah Shelton) is a wizard at video games. His skills lead a real-life warrior from the past, Zhao (Mark Chao), to confuse him with a skilled fighter. Zhao must protect Princess Su Lin (Ni Ni) from Arun the Cruel (Dave Bautista), who wants to force her into marriage and steal her kingdom. After the princess is kidnapped, Jack is transported to the past and forced to fight.

This setup is nothing special. A normal teen is brought to a mystical world whose inhabitants confuse him for a mighty warrior. Most of the time, our hero/heroine finds a way to become the person they need to be by using knowledge of history or by replicating modern-day technology to combat their enemies. This story by Luc Besson (yes, really) and his frequent collaborator, Robert Mark Kamen gives Jack many unearned wins. Most come rapid-fire in the last 15 minutes of the story where a happy ending is basically served on a golden platter. Many come even earlier. Uriah Shelton looks about as Chinese as a Big Mac but he communicates with all of these people from the past with no problem. They just stop speaking Mandarin a couple of minutes into the film… until the end when director Matthias Hoene suddenly remembers he's trying to appeal to both Western and Eastern audiences simultaneously.

The biggest surprise is that this film never dusts off that old “This hot dog, what kind of dog is it made from?” line. When we learn Jack lives alone with his mom, you assume it’s either so the film can have our hero eventually overcome the grief born from his parents' divorce or so we can swiftly shoo mom away and get the adventure started. Guess which one Enter the Warriors Gate chooses to go with. I’ll give you a hint. It can’t even manage to get its title's grammar correct, much less handle complex character arcs.

Where this picture wins some points is in the comedy. There are numerous off-hand remarks made by Arun the Cruel and his chief executioner that’ll make you laugh. Once in a while, it’ll blindside you with some unexpected gags and you’ll take a break from laughing at the film to laugh along with it. And there are numerous reasons for you to ridicule this adventure. Most come during the conclusion. Even before then, there’s some bad and needless CGI, awful wigs, and cringe-inducing dance numbers. The writing is quite poor, particularly when you realize the wizard (Francis Ng) introduced at the beginning of the movie could’ve probably done everyone a favour by single-handedly defeating the baddie on his own.

Enter the Warriors Gate feels like a release from 30-40 years ago. Everything about this tale you’ve seen done before, many times. Seemingly aware of this, it tries to keep things interesting by having both someone from another world comes to ours, and the reverse too. At least the actors are likeable, which goes a long way. It’s competent but never inspired. (April 4, 2020)

Séries : Le Nouveau Langage Universel du Divertissement

 Il y a quelques années à peine, les séries étaient considérées comme un simple loisir de fin de soirée. Aujourd’hui, elles sont devenues un pilier culturel à part entière, captivant des millions de spectateurs dans le monde entier. Qu’elles soient drôles, dramatiques, policières, historiques ou fantastiques, les séries façonnent nos discussions, nos habitudes et notre rapport au monde.

À l’ère du numérique, le réflexe est clair : regarder une série en ligne fait désormais partie du quotidien. Mais d’où vient cette passion collective, et pourquoi les séries occupent-elles une place si dominante dans l’univers du divertissement ?

Une Immersion Inégalée

Ce qui distingue les séries des autres formats, c’est leur capacité à raconter des histoires sur la durée. En suivant des personnages pendant des mois, voire des années, le spectateur développe une forme de relation intime avec eux. Le suspense s’installe, les intrigues se multiplient, les rebondissements surprennent… C’est un véritable voyage émotionnel.

Cette immersion prolongée permet aussi d’explorer des thèmes en profondeur : relations humaines, luttes sociales, psychologie, politique, science-fiction, etc. Une série bien construite peut devenir une œuvre aussi puissante et marquante qu’un grand roman.

Des Séries Pour Tous les Goûts

La richesse du monde des séries réside dans sa diversité infinie. Il existe une série pour chaque spectateur, chaque humeur, chaque moment :

Thrillers et policiers : intrigues tendues, mystères à élucider, enquêteurs tourmentés.

Drames psychologiques : relations humaines complexes, émotions brutes, dilemmes moraux.

Comédies : humour absurde, satire sociale, légèreté bienvenue après une longue journée.

Science-fiction et fantastique : mondes imaginaires, réflexions sur l’humanité, technologies futuristes.

Historiques : immersion dans les grandes périodes du passé avec des décors et des costumes somptueux.

Et avec l’essor des productions internationales, les séries venues de Corée du Sud, d’Espagne, d’Allemagne, du Royaume-Uni ou encore du Brésil gagnent un public mondial, apportant fraîcheur, diversité et nouvelles perspectives.

Le Streaming : Révolution Silencieuse du Format Séries

Le streaming a transformé le paysage audiovisuel. Grâce à lui, les séries ne sont plus contraintes par des horaires ou des chaînes spécifiques. Aujourd’hui, chacun peut :

Choisir quoi regarder, quand et où.

Découvrir des séries indépendantes ou oubliées, parfois meilleures que les productions grand public.

Revoir ses classiques ou binge-watcher une saison entière en un week-end.

Le confort de regarder une série en ligne, sans publicité ni contrainte, a changé notre manière de consommer la fiction. Le spectateur devient le maître du programme.

Les Séries Qui Ont Marqué une Génération

Certaines séries ont transcendé leur statut de divertissement pour devenir de véritables phénomènes culturels :

Breaking Bad, pour son écriture ciselée et sa descente dans la noirceur humaine.

Game of Thrones, pour son univers médiéval grandiose et ses retournements brutaux.

Stranger Things, pour son hommage aux années 80 et son ambiance surnaturelle.

The Crown, pour son regard intimiste sur la royauté britannique.

The Office ou Brooklyn Nine-Nine, pour des doses quotidiennes de rires et de chaleur humaine.

À côté de ces géants, une multitude de séries émergent chaque mois et trouvent leur public grâce aux algorithmes, aux critiques, ou tout simplement au bouche-à-oreille.

Pourquoi Nous Ne Pouvons Plus Nous Passer des Séries

Il y a une forme de rituel moderne dans le fait de regarder une série. On attend la suite, on en parle avec ses proches, on partage nos théories sur les réseaux, on revit les meilleures scènes... Les séries créent du lien social et émotionnel.

Elles répondent aussi à un besoin contemporain : celui de s’évader d’un quotidien parfois pesant, tout en restant connectés à des histoires qui nous parlent, qui nous touchent ou nous défient.

Conclusion

Les séries ont conquis le cœur du public et se sont imposées comme un art majeur du XXIe siècle. Grâce au streaming et à la créativité sans cesse renouvelée des auteurs, producteurs et réalisateurs, le monde des séries est plus vivant que jamais.

Alors si vous cherchez votre prochain coup de cœur, ouvrez votre écran, explorez, testez… et laissez-vous embarquer dans un nouvel univers narratif.

What do you think of China, Russia, and Elon Musk's plans to colonize the Moon and Mars by 2050 and to achieve technological singularity by 2050?

COMMENTARY:

Here’s the thing: not only is Elon Musk 50 years behind the curve, but the common aspiration of the Nison-Brezhnev-Mao trinity of Detent and the China Policy was to transform the Quantigy of the various Military Industrial Complexes around the world into the quality of a Global Aerospce Entrepreneurial Martix capable of sustaining a lunar colony for 100 years as a necessary phase in the completion of Werhner von Braun’s Das Mar Projejkt,

When I got back from Vietnam in 1971 on both sides of the aisle inside the Beltway was 2001:A Space Odyssey except for the right wing assholes like pat Buchanan and the representtives of the John Birsch Society who killed Jack Kennedy, the Plumbers, who have done nothing but sabotage that common aspiration If Carter had been re-elected, we would have been to Mars by now,

But the 40 years between the Polar Vortex of 1985 and the Polar Vortex of 2025 have been dominated by the nazification agenda of the Conservative politics of the Ivy League socialism of the John Brich Society and the businss model of Fortune 500 CEOs like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos who believe magagement by fear and corporate terrorism is the essence of the Renaissance industrial manager.

It’s not/ It is the essence of the 19th Century economics as a machine of Ray Dalio’s Transaction Theory, which is quantitatively superior to the Marxist/Scientific mechanistic economics it replaced, But it’s still a mechanistic sociology and the methods of DOGE reflect the industrial surgical model of LBJ’s urban renewal social engineering of the 60s and Stalin’s purges of the 30s.

And Trump’s Tariff notions of the present.

Eisenhower’s 1956 Presidential Platform launched a 3 stage social engineering process designed to colonize the moon as the necessary base camp for colonizing Mars. The moon is to Mars as England was to D-Day and the crusade in Europe that has resulted in the European Union, This novel economy of scale, alon with America, Russia and China, is an essental social and material infrastructure for the conquest of space, the final fronteir, The nazification of the right wing Deep State equity bankers have been trying to undermine these structures since William F. Buckley published his manifesto fo the John Birch Society in 1960, the Sharon Statement, that has resulted in Project 2025 in america and the Nazificaation in Russia that has been an existential threat to Putin and an independent Ukraine since 2003 with the nasty little gang warfare around the Dunbas that Putin proposed to snuff out in 2022 with nis de-Nazification Crusade. That Nazifixation Agenda defines the 40 year period between Reagan and DOGE that has prevented a US-Russia-PRC lunar colony.

In 1971, Washingtion was working on Ludar and Mars colonies before Elon Musk had a dick to play with, In 1971, America was a cunt hair away from achieving the critical mass, nationally, to trigger the general mobilization necessary to complete Eisehhower’s Stage 3, the Starship Capitalism of 2001:q Space Odyssey and Elon Musk symbolizes the cunt hair of the right wing nazification that killed Jack Kennedy standing between where we are nos and Space, the Final Fronteir.

America was ready to do big things in 1981 when Reagan came to town, but all he wanted to do was to reminisce fondly about making movies during the war while the Hollywood John Birch Society looted the American Middle Class with the nazification agenda of Supply Side Marxism, Gen Z is likewise ready to do big things, but Trump is stuck in the Boomer Food fight and criminal nazification of the John Birsh Society, But both President Putin and President Xi understand what they inherited from the Nixo-Brexhnev-Mao trinity and Elon Musk is the current stand in for American leadership.

Trump is trying to push the string of nazification into the future, The irony is, his creation of the US Sspace Force is the string that will pull Gen Z into the Aquarius Age. And Melania Trump’s Bee Best legacy project for Trump I will provide the mobilizaion of America behind the US Space Force that will begin to uull that string

Elon is just in the way,

Mo-doped Ni₂P nanorings boost seawater electrolysis for hydrogen production

Burning fossil fuels has led to a global energy crisis, worsening pollution and climate change. To tackle this problem, we must explore cleaner energy alternatives. One promising solution is the use of water electrolysis technology (electrolyzer) powered by renewable electricity to produce high-purity hydrogen (H₂) fuel. Currently, most systems for producing hydrogen rely on pure water. However, the limited availability of pure water makes it difficult to scale up this technology. On the other hand, seawater, which covers about 97% of the Earth's surface, offers an endless supply of hydrogen. Despite its abundance, using seawater for hydrogen production presents challenges due to its complex composition, which includes high amounts of salts like chloride, sodium, and magnesium.

Mettons donc notre don à l'usage : L'Elitisme Morbide* !

Définition et Développement des concepts

*Elitisme Morbide : Dérive perverse du concept d'Elitisme**.

Les principaux facteurs de morbidité, induisant une dérive perverse, étant : l'emploi du concept comme élément central d'une politique de régulation démographique ; ainsi que ; L'absence de considération pour la valeur de la vie. Le second résultant quasi-systématiquement du premier. L'élimination devient alors la mise à mort. Le problème est que le moindre détail peut conduire à l'élimination. En effet les critères d'élimination varient d'un individu (Juge) à l'autre. En général les critères d'éliminations sont ceux que l'on ne présente pas soi-même. L'échec pouvant provoquer la mort. La mise à mort étant facilement souhaitée par l'esprit corrompu. Et, et Ainsi, Chacun étant jugé défaillant par l'un ou l'autre, il en résulte une "élimination" systématique. Dès l'ores, la capacité de survie ne repose plus sur le mérite mais factuellement sur l'intimidation, le pouvoir et la corruption. " - Conduisant systématiquement au nationalisme, aux conflits communautaires et raciaux. Puis/ou au renversement de l'ordre ainsi établit - " <= La théorie, si complexe soit elle à transmettre, est facilement constatable en pratique !

**Concept d'Elitisme : Concept bien connu, incluant à la fois : - un outil d'organisation sociale ; une Doctrine d'organisation sociale entièrement dédiée, centrée sur cet outil ; ainsi que ; une sorte de philosophie applicable à ses partisans. Pour ce qui nous intéresse ici...

Texte d'origine

Ouvrez les yeux ! Nombre de nos institutions publiques et privées massacrent des citoyens ! Des citoyens sans aucunes défenses en employant des technologies de pointe et en se cachant derrière un arsenal à en faire rougir Satan lui-même.

Comment voulez-vous que la population ne soit pas mentalement perturbée ! Sans parler des targets !

On nom de quoi ? D'une sélection artificielle, contre-nature par définition. Et jamais satisfaite ! Au nom de la connerie humaine. Voila au nom de quoi.

Qui ose encore vous dire, que les partisans de l'Elitisme (Morbide) nous sélectionnent comme du vulgaire bétail. Que chaque minute passée en vie pour un canasson condamné ne représente désormais qu'un "gaspillage de ressources" regrettable dans la tête de celui qui a choisi ou accepte d'endosser le rôle de l'éleveur Elitiste ! Que tout cela n'a jamais correctement fonctionné. Que ces partisans là entretiennent, dans la joie et la bonne humeur, un système totalement morbide et autodestructeur - Conduisant systématiquement au nationalisme, aux conflits communautaires et raciaux. Puis/ou au renversement de l'ordre ainsi établit -. Au nom d'un choix idéologique erroné, qui ne remplit même pas ses fonctions.

DES GENS MASSACRENT DES CITOYENS EN TOUTE IMPUNITE ! ILS VONT MEME JUSQU'A CULPABILISER LEURS VICTIMES DESARMEES (DES REBUTS ! DE VULGAIRES DECHETS DE CITOYENNETE ELITISTE) ENTRAIN DE SE FAIRE ASSASSINER ! ET L'OPPINION DOIT DIRE AMEN !

Allons donc passer un bon lavage de cerveaux là dessus ! Mais cela n'effacera pas la vérité constatable. Comment voulez-vous que la population ne soit pas mentalement perturbée ! Sans parler des targets ! Ni des veaux ! ça va mal à l'école et dans la tête de la jeunesse ! Ne vous demandez pas pourquoi ! Le seul poulet qui survit pendant 1 cycle, c'est le fils du fermier.
