    Well many people already pointed their favourite OS in response to your post but the idea of having the OS and the IDE in the same project is literally one of the catchphrase of Pharo, itself inspired from Smalltalk... From there it links to Xerox and other great ideas.

  4. The first 2 authors are from "Uber AI labs"...

    Basically yes. There is a brief description of the main instrument here. There was a mode detailed description with references to many papers but I can't find it anymore.

  8. You're right, I meant "most Slashdot stories around space today seem to revolve around SpaceX". While it's of course interesting to talk about SpaceX sometimes it feels like any SpaceX launch deserves its dedicated story... That was a tentative catch-phrase because like you I believe that we have good reasons to do science in space.

  10. A 100% natural version on Let There Be Light: Germans Switch on 'Largest Artificial Sun' (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    It reminds me of solar furnaces (like this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...). Quite funingly the temperature and light intensity are similar.
