#Gamma radiation in #Khmelnytsky could actually indicate that a #DirtyBomb was stored in the warehouses.
Gamma radiation is characteristic of #enriched #uranium. Is it possible that were making "dirty bombs" at the Khmelnitsky #NPP

#Capitalism/#Work: "Timed to go to the toilet. Told off for leaning. Monitored for each package completed. As a #worker at #Amazon, I often feel that we aren’t being treated as people."

"We are treated worse than the #robots doing automated tasks in the warehouses. If the robots have an issue, the company pays for them to be serviced, whereas if we drop below certain targets multiple times, we can be fired – we have to sort it out or get out"
"Everyone who I work with at the warehouse in Coventry is frustrated.... The shifts are hard work, spent all on our feet, walking miles back and forth through large warehouses. All of that for just £10.50 an hour. That’s why about 400 workers at our warehouse are striking today."
⭐️Amid labor shortages and problems of rural isolation, #Japan is relaxing its traffic laws to allow autonomous delivery #robots to take to the streets.
1. #Japan has one of the world's oldest populations, with nearly 30 per cent of its citizens aged over 65. Many live in depopulated rural areas that lack easy access to daily necessities.
2. Labour shortages in its cities and new rules limiting overtime for truck drivers also make it difficult for businesses to keep up with delivery demands.

"IF I WERE PRESIDENT, THE RUSSIA/UKRAINE WAR WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED, BUT EVEN NOW, IF PRESIDENT, I WOULD BE ABLE TO NEGOTIATE AN END TO THIS HORRIBLE AND RAPIDLY ESCALATING WAR WITHIN 24 HOURS. SUCH A TRAGIC WASTE OF HUMAN LIFE!!!"

American copium regarding China has evolved over the years.
From “China is poor” to “China IS collapsing” to now “China is rich but WILL collapse.”
Here’s a quick debunking about the demographic crisis, one of the alleged reasons for future collapse:
From “China is poor” to “China IS collapsing” to now “China is rich but WILL collapse.”
Here’s a quick debunking about the demographic crisis, one of the alleged reasons for future collapse:
1. A smaller population will be a blessing in the coming years. A lot of people still don't understand the coming revolution of AI and robots.
Like this autonomous taxi, for example.
Like this autonomous taxi, for example.
2. If there are jobs that cannot be done by robots, there are two options:
A. Offshore those jobs to other developing nations. This will also mean higher profit margins for Chinese companies.
B. Bring in immigrants -- perhaps even on a short-term basis.

We start with a talk by SFI President David Krakauer:
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"I'm going to pick on economics, because we like to do that at SFI. 'Ooh, look at that cover! So techy. Global, heat maps...' But here's 'Networks' [in the textbook]. THAT'S IT. Here's '#ComplexityEconomics.' NOTHING."
A continuación, viene un hilo [🧵] sobre la #automatización del trabajo, los #robots y una serie de #ideas💡a tomar en cuenta ➡️...
Probablemente, te preguntarás, ¿Por qué la #automatización del #trabajo 🦾ha llamado tu atención?
¿Es acaso debido a las películas de #Terminator, o tal vez, #Robocop, #WALL·E o Nueve de #ShaneAcker? ⬇️

Very happy to share that The Oxford Handbook of Digital Ethics is now finished and will be out in the next few months! Some of it is already published online. If you're interested in #DigitalEthics, #AIEthics, #ethics, #privacy, #AI, #philosophy, this one is for you... 🧵👇
In this chapter, @SvenNyholm relates the new area of the ethics of human–#robot interaction to traditional ethical theories such as #utilitarianism, Kantian #ethics, and virtue ethics. #AIEthics

In this chapter, Emily Sullivan and Mark Alfano (@moral_psych) develop a normative epistemic framework for sharing information online. They argue recent technological developments call for a rethinking of the norms of testimony. #epistemology

I think $RXRX is the most advanced company working in the Tech in Biotech space. They are using #robots to run millions of experiments per week to feed all the data into their super computer.
They then use that data to find Known Chemical Entities (KCE) and New Chemical Entities (NCE). Their first 3 drugs are all going into phase 2 this year. They are KCE drugs that were in-licensed for CCM, NF-2 and FAP.
They also have a C-dif drug working on its IND. They have 3 really interesting NCE drugs in preclinic for CDK12, SKT11/KRAS and Myc. All of them have good promise.

Philo was also known as Philo Mechanicus. He was a famous Greek engineer, physicist and writer on mechanics from Byzantium (modern Istanbul), although he lived most of his life in Alexandria.

I am super proud of the rest of the team @huanbo_sun and Katherine J. Kuchenbecker.

So here are a few details:
The mechanical design is pretty unique: we use a soft elastomer that encloses a rigid thin skeleton.
-> it can withstand strong forces
-> it is very sensitive
-> surface has high friction

Interacting with artificial intelligence (AI) ➡️ AI systems that interact with humans (“conversational user interfaces”) are already here. #chatbot #robots. (thread 1/9)

Assam Chief Minister @sarbanandsonwal on January 16 handed over two robots to be used to deliver food and antibiotics to COVID-19 patients in Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH) in Diburgarh as a part of the COVID-19 infrastructure equipment grant.
@sarbanandsonwal The robotic vehicles will be remotely-controllable and are designed for use in isolation wards of the quarantine facilities. The grant has been sponsored by the Rotary Foundation, Rotary Club of Dibrugarh and Rotary Club of Dhaka Royal, Bangladesh.
@sarbanandsonwal While handing over robots to the hospital, Sonowal thanked the various departments and orgainsiations for contributing in the fight against COVID-19 pandemic and hailed the efforts of the frontline workers.
