From the author of Utopia For Realists, a revolutionary…

The images out of Minneapolis right now are unbelievable. Thousands in the streets, a police precinct on fire, fireworks being fired into those flames. All while we wait on whether charges will be filed against the officers involved in the death of George Floyd. #GeorgeFloyd

Probably the best thread of discussion so far on the recent preprint by Steve Horvath et al on how injections of a young blood plasma into elderly rats appears to reduce a wide number of indications of the rats' effective age by an average of 54% (and improved their memory)
Finally had time to carefully read the new preprint that claims to reverse the age of rats by 54%. I spoke to the first author & in this thread ask whether the results are believable and what if it is true? https://t.co/Odcd24slwe 1/n

The idea of building a nationwide quantum internet is so exciting that the Trump Administration even has a proposed budget of $25 million dedicated to making it a reality.

Measuring a quantum state immediately changes it, so any message encoded in quantum states will be corrupted if someone tries to intercept it.
