hagiograffiti: September 2011

Sep 16, 2011. A Change to the Link List was Overdue. I'm no longer linking to the Singularity institute blog. As I do no longer wish to be associated with this organization in any way. Dresden Codak. Gets the boot for displaying Megatokyo Syndrome (glacial pacing, asking for donations for broken computers, etc.) and Pink Tentacle. Seems, sadly, to be defunct since April (I dearly hope this guy is OK). Replacing them are Gene Expression. Without any of the associated wickedness; Hark!

hagiograffiti: December 2010
http://hagiograffiti.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Dec 17, 2010. The 34 Year Old Scientist. Watson discovered the structure of DNA when he was 24. Heisenberg formulated the uncertainty principle when he was 25. Newton claimed to have developed his gravitational theory when he was 24. Darwin embarked on the Beagle when he was 22. I could go on for hours like this. Of course I may be biased here. Ever so many examples and counterexamples don't prove a point. One has to look at the data that's out there. Costas et al. (2010). Perform a more thorough analysi...

1.6 Peta FLOPS and other news... - The Singularity
http://sci-singularity.livejournal.com/6429.html
16 Peta FLOPS and other news. - The Singularity. September 11th, 2006. 12:19 am - 1.6 Peta FLOPS and other news. According to this article. IBM's next supercomputer called Roadrunner will start to be constructed soon. When completed in 2008 it should perform 1.6 Peta FLOPS. I plotted all this out on a graph:. It looks like we could reach 10. Ok, so maybe the next thing is not really singularity-ish, but these driver-less robotic cars. That are going to appear at Heathrow look pretty sci-fi if you ask me:.
