why am I not surprised .....

A cool add on from MIT to understand, visualizing, what google knows about you

Our achievement is reported on the italian government web pages .....

And thats the answer to NSA form Pirate Bay .... not as soon as I expected, but still fast :)

innovating has its risks :)

And thats why we do what we do :) Enjoy!!

And thats the bad news .... obviously from texas

whos calling?

Just to point out we did indicate this is happening well in time .....

I know at least of a few people who share this point of view :)

any thoughts?

NASA has it ... I WANT IT TOO!!!! 240 threads on 60 cores ... Imagine the possibilities of this new toy!! Francesco also has it in his new "kill the seals" job

Old post from Luis brought back from graveyard..... At least two good ideas to put there: 1) tipping points prediction 2) planetary phases for trajectory transfer and probably many more if we think about it a bit more

As I said ten years ago and psychoanalysts 100 years ago. Luis I am so sorry :) Also ... now that the commission funded the project blue brain is a rather big hit Btw Nicolelis is a rather credited neuro-scientist

I guess chaos is what you are referring to. Stuff like the Lorentz attractor. In which case I would say that the point is not to predict one particular brain (in which case you would be right): any initial conditions would be fine as far as any brain gets started :) that is the goal :)

Say one has an accurate model of a brain. It may be the case that the initial and boundary conditions do not matter that much in order for the brain to function an exhibit macro-characteristics useful to make science. Again, if it is not one particular brain you are targeting, but the 'brain' as a general entity this would make sense if one has an accurate model (also to identify the neural basis of mental diseases). But in my opinion, the construction of such a model of the brain is impossible using a reductionist approach (that is taking the naive approach of putting together some artificial neurons and connecting them in a huge net). That is why both Kurzweil and Markram are doomed to fail.

I Knew!!! I Knew!!! They are all around. I always though Marek was one :) "I believe in Father Frost. But not too deeply. But anyway, you know, I'm not one of those people who are able to tell the kids that Father Frost does not exist"

For hardcore latex users (btw ... implemented in haskell ... classical machine learning app, but useful)

in memoriam ....

1mm atomic bundle teleported !!!!

1969 - Man on the moon, and videogames just born 2012 - Man still here and Diablo III out :)

All patents violated by Samsung!!! I wonder if Apple patented also the use of eyes when interacting electronic devices :)
