Philosophy and science are often thought of as separate things, but today I argue why they are more similar than we think. I also analyze why it is important to have a solid understanding of both, using critical thinking to acquire knowledge and use these tools to understand the world we live in.

🛸 ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS WE CAN’T EVEN IMAGINE 🚀Beyond the limits of human comprehension lie civilizations so alien, so advanced, they defy all logic. Worlds…
One of the biggest reasons for colonizing other worlds is to ensure we don’t die with our own sun, but even those alien suns we might travel to will die one day. And yet, our image of stars living than erupting spectacular as a red giant or supernova, present a somewhat false impression, as those stellar remnants often last far longer than the stars which bore them. Could civilizations survive around these dead stars? Could they even outlast the End of the Universe, as the last stars fade away?

Google’s X “moonshot factory” this week announced its latest graduate. Heritable Agriculture is a data-and machine learning-driven startup aiming to improve how crops are grown.
As the firm noted in an announcement post published Tuesday, plants are incredibly efficient and impressive systems. “Plants are solar powered, carbon negative, self-assembling machines that feed on sunlight and water,” Heritable wrote.
Yet agriculture puts a massive strain on the planet and its resources, accounting for around 25% of anthropogenic greenhouse emissions. It’s the planet’s largest consumer of groundwater and can lead to soil erosion and water pollution via pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemicals.
C-Path, a nonprofit organization created to improve drug development, has been working to facilitate the adoption of MPS as drug development tools in regulatory science. In this interview, we learn how.
Thymic injury leads to reduced T cell production and makes patients more vulnerable to infections and cancers. Lemarquis et al. identify a population of recirculating regulatory T (Treg) cells that mediate regeneration in the injured thymus, partially through amphiregulin. An analogous population of Treg cells expressing CD39 and ICOS is found in humans, suggesting therapeutic avenues for boosting thymic regeneration to address aging-and treatment-induced immunosuppression.
What do eyes, quantum collapse, and photon emission have in common?
While experimenting with a simple particle simulation, an unexpected phenomenon emerged that bridges multiple realms of physics and perception.
The simulation, designed to model particles moving in toroidal orbits while attracting each other, spontaneously developed a striking pattern: a perfectly centered emission of particles perpendicular to the toroid’s plane, resembling both an eye and a quantum emission event.

A new startup in Canada wants to build the first “conscious” artificial intelligence using quantum computing. What’s their definition of consciousness? Well, it’s based on Roger Penrose’s ideas about consciousness, ORCH-OR. I find this rather confusing because Penrose thinks that consciousness is not computable, so how are we now going to compute it?
