Um cientista explica o Microsoft Kinect, Parte II. A recepção ao meu primeiro artigo. Explicando a tecnologia por trás do Kinect. O novo acessório da Microsoft sendo lançado essa semana, foi surpreendente. Em vários aspectos. O primeiro foi a enorme quantidade de visitantes, comentários e elogios, o que obviamente me deixou muito feliz…. O segundo aspecto, entretanto, foi mais interessante e inesperado: o diretor de incubação da Microsoft Alex Kipman. O que continua valendo? Expliquei no artigo anterior ...

Sunday, January 16, 2011. Who is Judge Holden? The Personification of Evil in Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian. Judge Holden, we are told, has encountered and come to know every single member of the gang at some point prior to their joining; far more than John Glanton he is the one common thread that binds them all together. The judge is not only tireless and physically imposing; he is invulnerable to death or serious injury, eventually outlasting, except for the kid, virtually every other man in the...

RMARS: October 2009
http://rmars.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 6, 2009. Securities Litigation and Corporate Reform. The results of that effort, the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, set new standards for corporate reporting and disclosure, and for the relationship between investors, professional money managers and the corporations themselves which are still in effect today. Their primary goal: to prevent such losses from ever happening again. Yes, I believe it is needed, but I hope t...

Rambunctious ramblings. Also, more active tumblr. Wednesday, May 30, 2007. Melted Keyboards and Wooden C64s. Linking to a flickr set of a wild melted keyboard resulting from arson. In a related, and intentionally driven sort of affair, a 419eater rescammed an email scammer. Into making elaborate wooden carvings of strange objects, such as toys and a Commodore 64. Originally read of 419eater.com. Though you need a subscription to read the full article. Monday, May 28, 2007. Go Jeff, Go! Originally publish...

Monte Giles - Interests
http://monte.giles.net/interests.html
I'm an avid technologist - I crave anything with a chip! Connect that black box to every other device and I'm hooked. Computer architecture, software, networking, wireless, physics, astronomy, math - if it's science or technology - I want to know, discuss, and explore. My favorite physicists are Oersted. The fathers of electromagnetism - everything wireless - the link between electricity and magnetism - arguably the most magical discovery in the history of mankind. Some books I've enjoyed reading:. The p...

Sunday, January 24, 2010. Times Books, October 2004), Jeff Hawkins sets forth a new theory of intelligence based on a concept called hierarchical temporal memory, or HTM. While HTM itself is not new, Hawkins’ application of HTM theory to the brain moves us significantly forward in understanding the human mind. If you are interested in the brain and mind and have not yet read On Intelligence. 8221; What’s missing is the concept of importance, or, “Is it important? 8221; Why importance? 8221; comes first, ...

Science for the Masses. Human NIR Perception – the first project. Human NIR Perception – the first project. Human vision works via a process called phototransduction. In this process, light enters the eye through the pupil, is focused by the lens, and strikes the retina. On the retina are billions of photoreceptive cells called rods and cones, and in these rods and cones are phototransductive compounds called photopigments. These pigments are the target of our project. The Journal of General Physiology.

Priceless treasure guide disguised as the confused ramblings of a misanthropic iconoclast. Seeking the next level is not a quest for the timid, not for the easily discouraged. The book On Intelligence. Was mentioned in a recent post here. Another book that fits well with the same general theory of intelligence, is Society of Mind. Hawkins focuses on neocortical examples of hierarchy, pattern sequencing, pattern invariance, and pattern auto-association. It is easy to conceive of "wearable sensors" that re...
