I did not RTFA, but I have worked with DNA and protein affinities and it is fairly obvious that there is more going on than just local electrostatic attractions. I don't doubt that more is going on, but to characterize it as quantum teleportation is likely more to do with getting read than serious assertion. It seems that quantum teleportation is the new buzz word that people like. It won't materialize ( pun intended ).
I agree that it seems a bit premature, it could be done with a lemon scent and make it perfect.
It might be used for the space shuttle, the shape shuttle is still in design phases.
On another note, I spent quite a lot of time moderating so I could get "disabled ads".
As a person dyslexia with, it is of great interest to me.
There are no disabled ads at all, I feel cheated.
People profit on free things in the same way that Google profits from giving away free search.
I did work with NASA 40 years ago and so I guess that makes me correct also. Wikipedia already has good reference and has some people that maintain the reference well. No point in muddying the waters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mechanics
It is a difficult science and the relationships are modeled with math. Understanding math is not a suggested dependency it is a prerequisite in any curriculum.
As someone else already said, without math, physics is just philosophy.
Professor Lewin covers the basics better anyway. It requires no math to watch the videos and he has a good knowledge of the subject. http://videolectures.net/mit801f99_physics_classical_mechanics/
On top of that, math is fun and very interesting in its application. Markov Chains and Monte Carlo methods are so cool.
How is a person supposed to understand even the most important reference on the net without math?
I agree.
"Intelligence for dummies" by "I. schmel profit".
"Quantum Physics for bears"
citing "Introduction to Trailer Court physics" on your resume for LHC would certainly get you noticed.

Feynman is astounding and had a natural grasp of the science. One of the strangest things I learned was that there is a 100 volt per meter field everywhere on the Earth.
I have viewed some of the videos at Kahn Academy and it is nice to see worked out examples as this is the best way to teach. Simply stating the relationships doesn't ever seem to help me.
Like programming, I have to write something before I really understand what it means.
if("Khan"=="Kahn"){P=NP;kdawson=editor}
It reminds me of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and the mice.
If we develop a method to create super intelligence and test it on mice first, then they will recognise that fact and play dumb.
I wonder if a person in Physics is the right specialty to infer the actions of species. Bioinformatics, AI, neuroscience, nanotech, etc would be some skills that might help to project the possibilities.
All of the above, and more is my guess.
We need a psycho-historian and a foundation to start from.
Skin is an organ and can be grown or transplanted on a suitable substrate. Already in the works.. So I am guessing that it is just a hop skip and jump to a real cyborg. It would probably be cheaper too and self repairing.
Cherry 2010 and if it follows Moore's law they will be posting on slashdot by Cherry 2020.
I would guess that this would be a life extension method at its completion, which allows space for the brain and spinal cord along with an interface. I think that is another of those uncanny valleys.
Though it does seem more like a science fiction movie such as reanimator.

I have gone through those at MIT, just for fun. I also found that Khan Academy was really interesting and perhaps is easier for some. Strang at MIT is awesome and also the courses at Yale are good.
UCLA has some great courses too. science and magic was very informative. It doesn't hurt that some of the profs are also quite entertaining.OR science and magic on youtube
I thought of that, but more realistically there could be a situation where twins are adopted to different homes and birth records are sealed. As a result the other twin could really screw up the other's life by committing crimes only near the twin. In fact I think there was a movie about that even.
No, my theory is they are telling the truth. What they lied about ( by omission ) is that they are triplets and if they had found the third he would have admitted to the crime.
They could project goatse links into the enemy planes computers and while they are distracted, send a missile up their tailpipe. Oops, that might be a bad metaphor.
I think it is all wasteful, but let them make all these things so complicated that only a genius could control them and finally we might have some intelligent leadership. Of course it might be SkyNet, but then we could have a really cool FPS that programmed itself. Then we could hide in caves and send cyborg drones to fight them and our drones would become sentient and then we could just use all the security camera feeds to watch the show.
And if the whole thing started making us feel guilty we could just give a jolt to our right temporo-parietal junction (RTPJ) and be all better.
In the future the soldiers will not be selected by how many pull ups they can do, but how many pencils they have in their pocket protector.
It seems that many of these data sets are public and easily accessible to analysis. I would find it interesting to simply use various forums like slashdot and have a ranking of who had the most insightful comments by user name. Certainly the data is available as people make it so. It seems that there is a schizophrenic aspect to this, people want to be recognized for what they represent and when they become too famous they get nervous about it.
I am sure that much of this data is already available in an organized form in many places like Google analytics.
I want to know who is the biggest Karma whore, how many times is XKCD linked , and why does that guy named AC have a fascination with goats.
It is also possible to look at commercial pages and identify which ads are placed and then determine who is spending the most money on ads. It then becomes a tool to see what competition is doing. I suspect that much of this data is already available to a number of organizations by a simple data base query.
So if China, Russia, NSA, Iran... data bases every bit of this info in its "secret" data bases that respect no bounds, and the public has no access to it, are we being cheated by being too private?
I wish I had known that complicated things can't be achieved when I was younger and it would have saved me and my friends a lot of time. What you are describing is like ray tracing and that is quite impossible I know, now that you have informed me. Blender
As far as finding the hand of the ceiling cat, that is obvious in the wonderful lulz that illuminate us.
I know what you mean about the stars, every night I look up and they wander about like fireflies with no obvious pattern.
If these techniques were already employed in other wavelengths then I might refute your statement, but alas I have no proof.
You are right, that would be like taking an encrypted signal from two satellites and merging them using the relativistic velocity of the satellites and the frequency shift as it passed into the gravity well, combining them and determining my position on the surface of a sphere. I know I shouldn't dream of new things, but if I could do that, I would call it GPS.

No kidding, I didn't even think it was funny when I wrote it. I wish I could mod myself down. Maybe the crowd sourcing has a Y2K+10 bug.
I think that 2K-10 is even better. 2K-10=(1024*2)-10=2048-10=2038=(2^11)-10
