If you’ve been interested in nanotech, but have been too afraid to ask, here is an introductory and interesting article that I’d like to recommend.

My interest in nanotech is based on my hope that nanotech can lead to methods of constructing substrates that are suitable for mind uploading. It may lead to a technique to create duplicate minds.

“These ‘biological engineering’ technologies have made real one of the dreams of the nanotechnology pioneers: the deployment of molecular assemblers able to construct any shape with atomic precision, following a rational design.”

“…hybrid bioinorganic devices that mimic biological processes will soon be used in new computers and electronic devices.”

Ongoing clinical trial to test the effectiveness of vitamin C infusion to help fight against Covid-19:

2019 new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infected pneumonia, namely severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) has caused global concern and emergency. There is a lack of effective targeted antiviral drugs, and symptomatic supportive treatment is still the current main treatment for SARI.

Vitamin C is significant to human body and plays a role in reducing inflammatory response and preventing common cold. In addtion, a few studies have shown that vitamin C deficiency is related to the increased risk and severity of influenza infections.

We hypothize that Vitamin C infusion can help improve the prognosis of patients with SARI. Therefore, it is necessary to study the clinical efficacy and safety of vitamin C for the clinical management of SARI through randomized controlled trials during the current epidemic of SARI.

We could essentially use deep learning to get to the theory of everything if we digitize all processes.

No single technology can ever replace humans and their unique value. Yet, the addition of hyperautomation is opening a world of new possibilities for the strategic nature of the employee experience – turning highly manual, labor-intensive tasks into nearly no-touch, rules-based processes.

Unquestionably, hyperautomation brings businesses closer to their vision of an intelligent enterprise that is customer-centric and operationally efficient. But first, innovation teams will need to rethink how they will deliver this technology capability. According to McKinsey, 70% of such complex and large digital initiatives do not achieve their stated goals. So it’s no wonder that only 6% of executives are satisfied with the performance of these efforts.

An infinitegine which electricity from magnetism of magnets directly is provided. The magnets are magnets. The infinitegine consists of magnets (M) which certain of magnetic field. The mobile rotating parts are made of ferromagnetic magnets and will do similar functions like spinning tops vertically aligned to the earth’s gravity. A motor is used to this spinning motion, and it has a function of putting the rotating part in the in rotary motion. The magnetic field of the magnets (M) can be used as anergy source.

It is contemplated that solving the problem of anxiety in finding an alternativeergy for coping with finite resources and exhaustion of fossil fuel resources would require a great deal of time even when mankind launches full-scale efforts and continues all-out efforts. The of an infinite power capable of supplying a clean, safe, infinite kineticergy for the and prosperity of human society with no need of consumable raw materials would improve the and wouldhance andrich the functionality thereof, would contribute to thehanced prosperity of human society, and wouldable city construction on not only the earth but also other planets.

Unlike the magnetic materials used to make a typical memory device, antiferromagnets won’t stick to your fridge. That’s because the magnetic spins in antiferromagnets are oppositely aligned and cancel each other out.

Scientists have long theorized that antiferromagnets have potential as materials for ultrafast stable memories. But no one could figure out how to manipulate their magnetization to read and write information in a device.

Now, a team of researchers at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley working in the Center for Novel Pathways to Quantum Coherence in Materials, an Energy Frontier Research Center funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, have developed an antiferromagnetic switch for computer memory and processing applications. Their findings, published in the journal Nature Materials, have implications for further miniaturizing computing devices and personal electronics without loss of performance.

NASA’s new 3-dimensional portrait of methane concentrations shows the world’s second largest contributor to greenhouse warming, the diversity of sources on the ground, and the behavior of the gas as it moves through the atmosphere. Combining multiple data sets from emissions inventories, including fossil fuel, agricultural, biomass burning and biofuels, and simulations of wetland sources into a high-resolution computer model, researchers now have an additional tool for understanding this complex gas and its role in Earth’s carbon cycle, atmospheric composition, and climate system.

Since the Industrial Revolution, methane concentrations in the atmosphere have more than doubled. After carbon dioxide, methane is the second most influential greenhouse gas, responsible for 20 to 30% of Earth’s rising temperatures to date.

“There’s an urgency in understanding where the sources are coming from so that we can be better prepared to mitigate methane emissions where there are opportunities to do so,” said research scientist Ben Poulter at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

Frustrated by Europe’s lack of home-grown tech giants, Commission officials hope EIC will help small tech firms grow in Europe, instead of being lured away to Silicon Valley. “The aim here is to close the big gap that exists between Europe and the United States,” says Mark Ferguson, Ireland’s chief scientist and EIC board chair. But one challenge will be backing risky but promising startups without becoming “the financiers of last resort for all the failing companies that aren’t going to do very well,” says Christopher Tucci, a professor of technology management at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne, who advised the Commission while it drafted Horizon Europe.

European Innovation Council buys shares in disruptive technology startups.
