These 31 charts will destroy your faith in humanity Earlier this week, Rob Wile of Business Insider posted his graph-heavy opus: "31 Charts That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity." Naturally, we here at Wonkblog were all eager to see the results. But we'd quibble a bit with Wile's interpretations of the data. 1) Inter-state wars are on the rise since 2002. Systemic Peace 2) Dictatorships still exist: 3) We haven't eradicated human slavery: It's Getting Better All The Time / Stephen Moore & Julian Simon 4) People around the world are becoming just as lazy as the French: "The Improving State of the World" (c) Cato Institute 2007. 5) Look at all the frivolous crap we're spending money on: 6) Pretty much everyone in the United States can now read Fifty Shades of Grey: 7) More 77-year-olds are dying than ever before: 8) We vanquished infectious disease only to find more horrible ways to die: 9) We're making progress on cancer treatments, but ugly charts with blue backgrounds remain a depressing fact of modern life: 15) Annoying babies are everywhere:
The Universal Handset You can understand how MIMO works, at least in broad terms, with a simple thought experiment. Suppose you set up a transmitter with a single antenna and then move a receiver, also with a single antenna, far enough away for the reception to fade in and out once in a while. Such problems arise because the transmitted signal takes multiple routes to the receiver—some of it perhaps bouncing off a passing car, other parts reflecting off the steel beams of the building where the receiver is located. When the difference in length between two paths is half a wavelength (or three halves, or five halves, and so forth), the two waves will interfere destructively, clobbering the signal. MIMO sidesteps that pitfall by multiplying the number of possible paths between transmitter and receiver. Throw in some serious number crunching to process the digitized signals and you can achieve extraordinarily high data rates. Avoiding problems in such cases typically requires some kind of feedback mechanism.
Esto es una guerra psíquica (sobre las causas secretas de las cosas) Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas [Feliz el que puede conocer las causas de las cosas] -Virgilio La bomba ha estallado… —¿Qué bomba? —La bomba psíquica, la bomba maestra. -James Baldwin En el mundo en el que vivimos la mayoría de las veces no sabemos qué es lo que causa las cosas. En el poema «Alguien», Jorge Luis Borges escribe: «puede sentir de pronto, al cruzar la calle, una misteriosa felicidad que no viene del lado de la esperanza sino de una antigua inocencia, de su propia raíz o de un dios disperso». ¿Alguna vez te has sentido alegre sin razón aparente, sin causa coherente, solamente porque las circunstancias se conjugaron de manera inesperada, una mañana radiante, una felicidad que no parece provenir de un hecho concreto? Don Juan le decía a Carlos Castaneda (o Castaneda decía que Don Juan le decía) que la suerte es un tipo de poder, una especie de ley generalmente invisible. Parecería que estamos hablando del karma. El Teorema de Bell explica así el entrelazamiento cúantico:
The SECRET for Undetectable Mind Control Unless you understand how reality is manifested, your destiny and the destiny of the planet will be in the hands of the ruling elite who do understand it. “Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth, because they don't want their illusions destroyed.” -Friedrich Nietzsche Living in the third dimension can be a blissful experience when you have power, health, wealth, comforts and freedom. That's what the ruling elite have manifested for themselves while the rest of the world struggles with poverty, disease, drug dependency, debt and servitude. The ultimate goal of the Illuminati is not only one world government. Notice how successful they have been at manifesting a Utopian 3rd dimension for themselves – money, yachts, private jets, castles, resorts, racehorses, corporations, gold, gems, servants and everything they desire. You are part of their manifestation. The Universal Law of Attraction What do you think about? “Everything is energy and that's all there is to it.

Winner: Radio Revolutionaries Illustration: Sean Mccabe; Original Photo: Joshua Dalsimer Vanu Bose, founder, and John Chapin, CTO, of Vanu Inc. Software-defined radio is one of those promising but elusive ideas that’s been anticipated for quite some time. The concept is elegantly simple: get rid of the specialized electronics used to process radio signals and instead do everything with software. The result, we’ve been promised, will be a universal wireless device that can seamlessly handle a range of frequencies, modulation techniques, and encoding schemes. Just as the personal computer replaced the typewriter, the adding machine, and even the telephone, so too will a software radio one day replace your cellphone, Blackberry, and any other wireless device you may happen to use. A cellphone based on software-defined radio would be lighter, smaller, cheaper, and more power efficient. We aren’t there yet, but software-defined radio is definitely coming. For cellular carriers, the advantage of such technology is clear.
Music evolution: Is this the end of the composer? 18 June 2012Last updated at 20:47 ET By Rebecca Morelle Science reporter, BBC News Professor Armand Leroi from Imperial College London explains why he thinks a Darwinian computer program that can evolve music from noise could kill off the composer You might think that creating the perfect piece of music - whether it's a classical great, jazz masterpiece or pop hit - is all down to the composer's talent, flair or even genius. Not so, according to Armand Leroi from Imperial College London. "What we are trying to find out is whether you need a composer to make music," says the professor of evolutionary developmental biology. "And we don't think you do." He believes a much more fundamental force of nature is at work. "We don't often think of music as evolving, but everybody knows it has a history and it has traditions. Scientists think that creating good music may not be the sole preserve of composers such as Mozart To begin with, the computer program randomly churned out two short loops of noise.
5 Ways to Give Yourself an Education That Kicks the Crap Out of the One You Got in School 5 Ways to Give Yourself an Education That Kicks the Crap Out of the One You Got in School One of the biggest reasons that people are denied the privilege of education is because they can’t afford it. However, today we live in a world where knowledge and information are at our finger tips like never before. Technology has leveled the playing field so that anybody with an interest and an internet connection can receive a world class education. Self Motivation is Not Optional Taking this kind of approach to educating yourself requires an extremely high degree of self motivation. 1. There are a handful of traditional education institutions that have started to embrace this trend. 2. In a recent feature, the CBS Sunday morning show said that there were approximately 50 million active blogs online. Want to learn how to get in shape? 3. 4.

Stop Railing on the Unemployed; Our Problems Are Structural – 27 June, 2013Posted in: Articles, Equality In western cultures it is all to easy to finger point and rail on the unemployed. Due to us living within the confines of a work to earn to pay to live system we find ourselves in a position of needing some form of employment. We also need to consider the levels of environment degradation that go hand in hand with the production consumption pandemic that has afflicted western cultures since the 1940′s and is rapidly expanding to the east. Unemployment is not a problem it is another symptom that is a result of structural issues that generate vast inequalities, fuel violence, in particular war, and relegate our environment and biosphere sustainability to being fringe topics that are seen as less important than our economy. “The research evidence suggests that when someone is unemployed long-term they become much less employable,” Nicholas Gruen It is easy to pick on the unemployed, that’s why so many people do it.
