    • When I first read Isaac’s gentle “manifesto” about Sharism I was instantly pulled into to the clarity and intent of his writing. I thought here is a man contemplating the enormous cultural and technological development that he himself is thriving inside of and he has perspective and keen insight. I know that Stuart Kauffman is looking for a new global ethic and right in front of us is a powerful new tool and sensibility that is emerging.

    • 对话为初,有对话,才有游戏规则的共识。然后才有辩论的氛围,此后才能谈到议事。对话之初的最大敌人就是威权,中国人在家庭内部就有压制的传统,进而延伸到教育和社会。“傻逼”其实就是威权的一种,是人们无法控制对方时所扔出的脏弹,和“老子要教训你”的直接控制没有差别。但是伤人一千,自损八百。父子无法对话,师生无法对话,官民无法对话,无不源自对这个“初”的损害。想建立民主社会,一方面要将威权解构,另一方面还要建构对话框架。

    • 梅德韋傑夫表示,他感到震驚的是,時下的年輕人都想當官,而且未必是因為這是一份充滿樂趣的職業。他表示,在蘇聯時代他父母上大學時,每個人都想當工程師。他上大學時,他們那一代人都想當律師、經濟學家或者從商。而如今那麽多學生——數量之多令人憂心——想的卻是當官就能夠有“其他收入來源”。“這是非常危險的趨勢,”他警告稱。

    • "THE Travelogue of Dr Brain Damages", a show of  Kenneth "Tin-Kin" Hung's artwork, opened recently in Manhattan. Mr Hung's garish and busy large paintings feature images of Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping and other Chinese leaders juxtaposed with icons of Western culture, such as Marilyn Monroe and the Mario Brothers (of Nintendo fame). These pieces are arresting, and I wish Mr Hung success, but most Western viewers will fail to understand some of the games the artist is playing. His work depends heavily on Chinese puns about internet censorship.

    • Socialism is economically inefficient as it does not reward entrepreneurs. Instead of rewarding entrepreneurs for creating wealth, it punishes them by making them pay higher taxes. Socialism can actually lower the living standards of all by not rewarding work and by making public assistance available to more than the neediest.

    • Bird's involvement would evolve from irritation that a company could get away with making a claim that so obviously defies basic business logic to the conviction that many pieces of the Chinese miracle that trade in the U.S. are, in his words, "flat-ass" frauds. And what started as a retiree looking into a company has turned into a dispute that has drawn in other shorts, the Securities and Exchange Commission, auditors, and, according to recent reports, the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services. It has also revealed significant flaws in U.S. markets and how they are regulated. Although the stocks trade on U.S. exchanges, and thus project a sense of having to play by American rules, the assets and the principals of many of the companies reside in China. The companies operate on their terms, leaving injured parties and the SEC powerless. Bird says the carnage is just beginning. "The whole thing has no place to go but to blow up," he says. "That's a rational position for an investor to start with, that every one of these Chinese reverse mergers is a fraud."

    • Studying paths of evolution of technical systems has been a primary research method of TRIZ since its inception. But until the 1970s the discovered recurrent patterns of evolution were not consolidated into a separate section of TRIZ and were scattered amongst other sections. In the 1970s Altshuller consolidated them into a new section of TRIZ that he called "The Laws of Technical Systems Evolution". It included both previously discovered recurrent patterns of evolution and newly discovered ones. Studying "laws of evolution" became an independent research topic in TRIZ. The following authors, besides Altshuller, contributed most to it: Yuri Khotimlyansky (studied patterns of energy conductivity in technical systems), Vladimir Asinovsky (proposed principles of correspondence of various components of technical systems), Yevgeny Karasik (co-authored with Altshuller the law of transition from a macro-level to a micro-level, introduced the notion of dual technical systems and studied the patterns of their evolution).

    • The study is the first step in a long-term effort to “reverse-engineer” infant cognition by studying babies at ages 3-, 6- and 12-months (and other key stages through the first two years of life) to map out what they know about the physical and social world. That “3-6-12” project is part of a larger Intelligence Initiative at MIT, launched this year with the goal of understanding the nature of intelligence and replicating it in machines.

    • To find out the “where” of this “scene-facilitation effect,” researchers flashed drawings of pairs of objects for just 1/20 of a second. Some of these objects were depicted as interacting, such as a hand grasping for a pen, and some were not, with the hand reaching away from the pen. Test subjects were asked to press a button if a label on the screen matched either one of the two objects, which it did on half of the presentations.

    • However, the researchers showed that when the bits to be deleted are quantum-mechanically entangled with the state of an observer, then the observer could even withdraw heat from the system while deleting the bits. Entanglement links the observer’s state to that of the computer in such a way that they know more about the memory than is possible in classical physics.

      The data can only be deleted once, so there is no possibility to continue to generate energy, the researchers said. The process also destroys the entanglement, and it would take an input of energy to reset the system to its starting state. The equations are consistent with the second law of thermodynamics: the entropy of the universe can never decrease.

      “We’re working on the edge of the second law,” says physicist Vlatko Vedral. “If you go any further, you will break it.”

    • To build their circuits, the researchers used pieces of DNA to make logic gates. Instead of depending on electrons flowing in and out of transistors, DNA-based logic gates receive and produce molecules as signals. The molecular signals travel from one specific gate to another, connecting the circuit as if they were wires.

    • “外國弄堂”的文革情境,鄭念本人並沒有見識過,因為她的搬入,已是文革後期。六六年至七七年間,這個小區完全陷入了紅色恐怖的迷霧。每天早晨,都有灰皮運屍車駛入,從某幢樓裏抬出用白布包裹的屍體。
    • 正是由於英國殼牌公司的背景,鄭念淪為瘋狂猜疑和迫害的對象。鄭念的遭遇儼然是白樺電影《苦戀》中那位畫家的現實投影。在烏托邦小說《一九八四》裏,奧威爾進一步闡釋了這種荒謬的極權語法,那就是——永不停息地從自己人中間製造“敵人”以及“敵人的幫兇”。

    • 现在当然我越老我越想念她,要是她活着,她已经五十多岁了。但是,在这儿我也很忙,有一个新的生活,我也不愿意再回中国去了,有认识的人在香港告诉我,说 我上了黑名单啦,不要回国了,等等,可靠不可靠我也不知道,因为我不会再回去了。我有的时候很想念自己的国家,很关心的,但是这也没有办法,我现在八十一 岁了,没有多少时间了。
