Long-Duration-Energy-Storage (LDES) resolves intermittency problems from wind and solar making the transition from fossil fuels workable.
Bigger, better, and badder. That’s the overall gist of what is going to happen with Artificial Intelligence (AI) throughout the upcoming year of 2023.

The nation wants to compete with NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope.
Peking University has ambitious plans to build the largest optical telescope in Asia, according to an article by Space.com
The Expanding Aperture Segmented Telescope
The new telescope will have an aperture of 19.7 feet (6 meters) by 2024 while its mirror will be expanded to 26.2 feet (8 m) by 2030. The project in English is called the Expanding Aperture Segmented Telescope (EAST) and according to a statement “will greatly improve China’s observation capabilities in optical astronomy.”

In this video, Unveiled takes a closer look at the concept of FREE WILL! Do humans have it? How can we prove it? And what if, actually, free will IS an illusion?? It’s one of the greatest questions in all of science and philosophy… but according to one theory, it just DOESN’T EXIST!
This is Unveiled, giving you incredible answers to extraordinary questions!
Depression is a difficult illness. Not only does it make you feel like crap, but like so many primarily mental illnesses, it also comes with a bucketful of misinformation and misconceptions surrounding it. Even medical specialists, whom you’d expect to be the authorities on the matter, are stumped by some aspects of the disease – the truth is, while humanity may be more informed than ever on matters of the brain, we still really don’t know what’s going on inside of it when it glitches like this.
But that may soon change. Researchers based at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, claim to have developed what they call a “mood decoder” – a way of reading people’s emotional state just from looking at brain activity.
“This is the first demonstration of successful and consistent mood decoding of humans in these brain regions,” Baylor College neurosurgeon and project lead Sameer Sheth told MIT Technology Review. And the best part? The team have also found a way to stimulate a positive mood in patients’ brains.
Experts are warning that quantum computers could eventually overpower conventional encryption methods, a potentially dangerous fate for humanity that they’re evocatively dubbing the “quantum apocalypse,” the BBC reports.
Cracking today’s toughest encryption would take virtually forever today — but with the advent of quantum computers, they’re warning, the process could be cut down to mere seconds.
And that kind of number-crunching power could have disastrous consequences if it were to land in the wrong hands.
Logic gates in biology can be set up to lead to timing important biological events. How is this done?
Edit: at 4:00, not all pathways make use of this motif. This is just one way timing can happen in biology.

Uri Alon’s Book:
Anatomical decision-making by cellular collectives: Bioelectrical pattern memories, regeneration, and synthetic living organisms.
A key question for basic biology and regenerative medicine concerns the way in which evolution exploits physics toward adaptive form and function. While genomes specify the molecular hardware of cells, what algorithms enable cellular collectives to reliably build specific, complex, target morphologies? Our lab studies the way in which all cells, not just neurons, communicate as electrical networks that enable scaling of single-cell properties into collective intelligences that solve problems in anatomical feature space. By learning to read, interpret, and write bioelectrical information in vivo, we have identified some novel controls of growth and form that enable incredible plasticity and robustness in anatomical homeostasis. In this talk, I will describe the fundamental knowledge gaps with respect to anatomical plasticity and pattern control beyond emergence, and discuss our efforts to understand large-scale morphological control circuits. I will show examples in embryogenesis, regeneration, cancer, and synthetic living machines. I will also discuss the implications of this work for not only regenerative medicine, but also for fundamental understanding of the origin of bodyplans and the relationship between genomes and functional anatomy.
