Anthropic principles are a set of widely debated beliefs in physics that in layman terms states that the universe is the way it is because of some elegantly fine-tuned variables(think of Rydberg constant, value of G etc.).A more formal definition to approach the same topic would look like :The anthropic principle is the philosophical premise that any data we collect about the universe is filtered by the fact that, for it to be observable at all, the universe must have been compatible with the emergence of conscious and sapient life that observes it.Anthropic principles aim to tackle one...…Anthropic principles are a set of widely debated beliefs in physics that in layman terms states that the universe is the way it is because of some elegantly fine-tuned variables(think of Rydberg constant, value of G etc.).A more formal definition to approach the same topic would look like :The anthropic principle is the philosophical premise that any data we collect about the universe is filtered by the fact that, for it to be observable at all, the universe must have been compatible with the emergence of conscious and sapient life that observes it.Anthropic principles aim to tackle one...WW…

: “Though there are many varieties of the view discussed, utilitarianism is generally held to be the view that the morally right action is the action that produces the most good.” A clear mathematical reason, nevertheless a sophisticated philosophical discussion what produces the most good (or in the trolley dilemma the less evil), a pure counting of individuals does not solve the problem.Artificial Intelligence researcher and author Andrew Rosenblum created the example that the self-driving car faces the situation that a truck is approaching from the front, what surely will destroy the car...…: “Though there are many varieties of the view discussed, utilitarianism is generally held to be the view that the morally right action is the action that produces the most good.” A clear mathematical reason, nevertheless a sophisticated philosophical discussion what produces the most good (or in the trolley dilemma the less evil), a pure counting of individuals does not solve the problem.Artificial Intelligence researcher and author Andrew Rosenblum created the example that the self-driving car faces the situation that a truck is approaching from the front, what surely will destroy the car...WW…

Ambitious science fiction is not about offering an escape from daily boredom or problems, but rather discussing actual and coming challenges. Industry 4.0 and especially Machine Learning make many of the predicted scenarios reality.In the short-movie “Blade Runner 2036: Nexus Dawn” the business leader Niander Wallace presented his new line of advanced replicants, called “angels” to a group of governmental officers. The meeting was necessary to receive permission to commercially produce and sell these machines on Earth.

Enzo Ferrari rationalized once his passion for motorsports:  Competition motivates us to bring out the best of us as we go to our limits. Technical progress is the result. Motorsports is as old as cars themselves. The dignified explains that the first race (still organized as a reliability test) had been organized as early as 1894 it went from Paris to Rouen, France. The distance was around 80km and the winner’s average speed 16.4 km/h.New developments changed the existing series. For example in 1959 the Cooper Car Company was the first team to win the International Cup for 1 F1...…Enzo Ferrari rationalized once his passion for motorsports:  Competition motivates us to bring out the best of us as we go to our limits.

Quantum mechanics is extremely weird, not least because of all the hybrid zombie cats involved. However, there is a phenomenon that is even more puzzling for us to understand as macroscopic beings known as quantum entanglement. This topic has been at the very heart of the disparity between classical and quantum physics and is one of the primary features that sets the two apart. Despite being completely counterintuitive even to the greatest scientific minds of the 20th century, the predictions made by quantum mechanics especially in regards to entanglement have resulted in physicists having...…Quantum mechanics is extremely weird, not least because of all the hybrid zombie cats involved.

Foreword: a former student has created a blog and published his own thoughts on the potential of a third party.
