Technology Hits: New Submission Guidelines - 2024

Technology Join a unique publication supporting writers penning about technology to find a broad audience using the power of ILLUMINATION on Medium. Dear Writers and Readers, Coming from a technology and science background, I have a strong affinity for technology writers and tech topics on multiple platforms. I enjoy reading their stories, but I also like reviewing, curating, and promoting…

It just occurred to me that I'm probably supposed to assume that the of the devil characters are cis unless suggested otherwise. I hadn't even consciously acknowledged that. I think I just assume any sufficiently weird and autistic woman is transgender

I shouldn't dig at business majors the way I did in that post. I know a lot of highly intelligent people who studied business and do it very well without the help of a shiny new toy that can't even correctly do math

HBCU Students Make Moves with NASA Tech

In September 2023, students at HBCUs participated in a hackathon at the National HBCU Week Conference, where they used NASA’s technologies to create solutions to problems that affect Black communities. The winning team, Team Airtek, proposed a nano-sensor array for medical diagnoses that would give students on HBCU campuses a non-invasive, non-intensive way to test themselves for precursors for diseases and illnesses like diabetes and COVID.

The hackathon they participated in is a modified version of the full NASA Minority University Research and Education Project Innovation and Tech Transfer Idea Competition (MITTIC) that takes place each fall and spring semester at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

No matter what you’re studying, you can join the MITTIC competition and come up with new and innovative tech to help your community and the world.

MITTIC could be the beginning of your career pathway: Teams can go on exclusive NASA tours and network with industry experts. Show off your entrepreneurial skills and your team could earn money—and bragging rights.

Don’t wait too long to apply or to share with someone who should apply! The deadline for proposals is Oct. 16, 2023. Apply here: https://microgravityuniversity.jsc.nasa.gov/nasamittic.

Kenyan inventor Roy Allela, 25, created Sign-IO gloves to translate sign language into audible speech, bridging communication for the deaf.

Sign-IO gloves, with finger sensors, connect via Bluetooth to an app, translating sign language into vocal speech.

Young inventor, also at Intel and teaching at Oxford, introduced gloves at rural special needs school, aiming for wider accessibility.

What Makes a Great Agronomist? Unpacking the Traits of Agricultural Excellence

Agronomists are the unsung heroes shaping the future of farming. They’re the bridge between science and soil, the architects of abundance in a world hungry for both food and sustainability. Over the years, after sifting through hundreds of agronomist resumes and meeting countless professionals in this field, I’ve come to realize that greatness in agronomy isn’t just about a degree or a title.…

Context: I'm reading the Dragonriders of Pern series, having recently restarted and then finally finished Dragonsdawn after a long hiatus from the series.

Renegades of Pern is not a very artful book, in terms of realistic decisions, clever dialogue, or compelling narrative. The arguments characters have make little sense, and it frequently feels very expository.

But it is a very functional book, in that it introduces characters, introduces places, and creates a reasonable framework for those characters to explore those places, leading to the rediscovery of ancient knowledge.

I hope All The Weyrs of Pern is better, though.

Two hoaxes about the Japanese government's "International University of Excellence" (Essay)

Tohoku University

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology is hyping up the idea of ​​seeking funding and human resources from overseas and operating "International University of Excellence" as an internationally recognized university, because "Japanese universities lack research funds, and untalented Japanese people alone cannot conduct international research."

Both of these arguments are wrong. The reason Japanese universities lack research funds is the work of Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, who himself caused Japan to fall from the ranks of developed countries in the early 2000s. He made universities self-supporting and diverted research funds to unimportant research. He nipped the buds of original research.

Also, it seems that Chinese and Indians are assumed to be international talent, but compared to Japan, where dozens of people have won the three Nobel Prizes in science and the Fields Medal in mathematics, very few (or no) Chinese or Indians have won them. Does this mean that Japanese people are untalented?

There are many Chinese students enrolled at Tohoku University (a model school for an international university of excellence) and the University of Tokyo, but the Chinese, who are only capable of stealing other people's research, are stealing rocket technology and turning it into Chinese-made missiles aimed at Japan, so the Japanese government can be said to be the most foolish of fools. It is also foolish to give 3 million yen in scholarships to Indian students. It should be given to capable Japanese students. The Japanese government is crazy, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology is no exception.

日本政府が主導する「国際卓越研究大学」の２つのまやかし（エッセイ）

東北大学

「日本の大学は研究資金が乏しく、無才な日本人だけでは国際的な研究が覚束ない」という理由で、資金と人材を広く海外から求め、国際的に通用する大学として「国際卓越研究大学」を運用すると文部科学省が息巻いている。

両方の論点は間違っている。そもそも日本の大学に研究資金が乏しいのは、２０００年代初頭に、自ら日本を先進国から失墜させた小泉純一郎総理大臣の仕業である。大学を独立採算制にして、研究資金をどうでもよい研究にばかり振り向けたのだ。独創的な研究の芽を摘んだのだ。

また、国際的な人材として中国人、インド人が想定されているようだが、ノーベル科学３賞や数学のフィールズ賞などを、数十人が受賞している日本に比べれば、中国人もインド人もろくに受賞していない（ゼロ人だったかも）。これで日本人が無才だと言うのか。

中国人は東北大学（国際卓越大学モデル校）、東京大学に多く在籍するが、人の研究を盗むことしか能のない中国人がロケット技術を盗んで日本を狙う中国製ミサイルになっているのだから、日本政府はバカの中のバカだと言える。インド人留学生に奨学金３００万円与えるというのもバカな話だ。能力のある日本人学生にこそ与えるべきだ。日本政府は狂っているが、文部科学省も例外ではない。
