In a drastic departure from what I’ve been posting about lately:
It’s super fucked up that Nathan Myhrvold refuses to let any e-books or allow many library loan copies of Modernist Cuisine books. Way to gatekeep culinary knowledge for no reason, tech bro. 😡😡😡
It’s keeping culinary knowledge out of the hands of normal people for literally no reason at all. There is no reason that a cookbook/culinary theory and practice set of books in high demand should be hard to find and over $600 and only accessible in physical form.

An Ultra High-Resolution 'Snowflake Camera' Captures the Extraordinary Details of Snow Crystals | Colossal
November 19, 2020 Photography Grace Ebert All images © Nathan Myhrvold It’s easy to forget that the mounds of snow lining sidewalks each winter actually are comprised of billions of tiny crystals with individual grooves and feathered offshoots. A trio of photographs taken by Nathan Myhrvold, though, serves as a stunning reminder of that fact as they expose the intricacies hidden within each…

What methods are used to find aliens?
What methods are used to find aliens?
What does the drake equation predict?
Frank Drake gathered a group of scientists to talk about how many alien civilizations could be living in our galaxy. To help these scientists think, he made a math equation which predicts the number of intelligent alien civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy.
How do we search for alien life in the universe? - StarChild
NASA StarChild (.gov)
https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov › questions › question24
A majority of the search for extraterrestrial life has been done through the use of radio telescopes. These very special telescopes detect waves that occur in the low-energy (or radio) end of the electromagnetic spectrum. The human eye cannot see radio waves because it does not have the ability to see energy waves as long as radio waves. These low energy waves are emitted by many cosmic sources such as stars and planets. Here on Earth we have several radio telescopes that are involved in extraterrestrial research. The Arecibo Telescope in Puerto Rico (shown at left) and the Parkes Telescope in New South Wales, Australia are two of the telescopes that participate in this research. At this time, though, no telescope is financially able to devote 100% of its time to search for life in other parts of the universe. That all may be about to change.
Recently plans were announced to build the Allen Telescope Array (an artist's rendition of the Array is shown below). This telescope will be built in California's Cascade Mountains and will be a joint effort between the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute and the University of California, Berkeley. The telescope will cost approximately 26 million dollars and is being financed by Paul Allen and Nathan Myhrvold, both of whom experienced financial success at Microsoft. This telescope will be involved in SETI research 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
A search for signs of life in other parts of the universe is done by looking at the radio emissions of individual star systems. Each star in the system is examined for possible planets that may be orbiting the star. An advantage of the newly proposed Allen Telescope is that it can look at more than one star at a time. The current radio telescopes are limited to searching only one star at any given moment. Another advantage of the Allen Telescope is that it is not going to be just one large bowl-shaped disk like the majority of radio telescopes currently in use, such as the Arecibo Telescope. Arecibo is one large disk that is 305 meters in width. The Allen Telescope will be a series of smaller bowl-shaped disks that are linked together. Anytime the scientists wish to enlarge the telescope all they have to do is add more disks. The Allen disks will contain antennas that are able to detect radio waves with frequencies from 1000 to 10,000 megahertz. The ability of scientists to continue to search for life in other worlds will be greatly enhanced by the addition of the Allen Telescope Array to our telescopic capabilities.
Whatever be the method of finding aliens, it is true that the curiosity of Mission Alien will continue to enhance our new skills day by day.

एलियन खोजने का क्या क्या पद्धति इस्तेमाल होता है
ड्रेक समीकरण क्या भविष्यवाणी करता है?
फ्रैंक ड्रेक ने वैज्ञानिकों के एक समूह को इस बारे में बात करने के लिए इकट्ठा किया कि हमारी आकाशगंगा में कितनी विदेशी सभ्यताएँ रह सकती हैं। इन वैज्ञानिकों को सोचने में मदद करने के लिए, उन्होंने एक गणितीय समीकरण बनाया जो मिल्की वे आकाशगंगा में बुद्धिमान विदेशी सभ्यताओं की संख्या की भविष्यवाणी करता है।
हम ब्रह्मांड में विदेशी जीवन की खोज कैसे करते हैं? - स्टारचाइल्ड
NASA StarChild (.gov)
https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov › प्रश्न › प्रश्न24
एलियन जीवन की खोज का अधिकांश हिस्सा रेडियो दूरबीनों के उपयोग के माध्यम से किया गया है। ये बहुत ही खास दूरबीनें विद्युत चुम्बकीय स्पेक्ट्रम के कम-ऊर्जा (या रेडियो) छोर में होने वाली तरंगों का पता लगाती हैं। मानव आँख रेडियो तरंगों को नहीं देख सकती क्योंकि इसमें रेडियो तरंगों जितनी लंबी ऊर्जा तरंगों को देखने की क्षमता नहीं होती। ये कम ऊर्जा तरंगें सितारों और ग्रहों जैसे कई ब्रह्मांडीय स्रोतों द्वारा उत्सर्जित होती हैं। यहाँ पृथ्वी पर हमारे पास कई रेडियो दूरबीन हैं जो एलियन अनुसंधान में शामिल हैं। प्यूर्टो रिको में एरेसीबो टेलीस्कोप (बाईं ओर दिखाया गया है) और न्यू साउथ वेल्स, ऑस्ट्रेलिया में पार्क्स टेलीस्कोप इस शोध में भाग लेने वाले दो टेलीस्कोप हैं। हालाँकि, इस समय, कोई भी टेलीस्कोप वित्तीय रूप से अपना 100% समय ब्रह्मांड के अन्य हिस्सों में जीवन की खोज के लिए समर्पित करने में सक्षम नहीं है। यह सब बदलने वाला है। हाल ही में एलन टेलीस्कोप ऐरे (ऐरे का एक कलाकार का प्रतिपादन नीचे दिखाया गया है) बनाने की योजना की घोषणा की गई थी। यह दूरबीन कैलिफोर्निया के कैस्केड पर्वतों में बनाई जाएगी और यह SETI (एक्स्ट्राटेरेस्ट्रियल इंटेलिजेंस की खोज) संस्थान और कैलिफोर्निया विश्वविद्यालय, बर्कले के बीच एक संयुक्त प्रयास होगा। दूरबीन की लागत लगभग 26 मिलियन डॉलर होगी और इसका वित्तपोषण पॉल एलन और नाथन मायरवोल्ड द्वारा किया जा रहा है, दोनों ने Microsoft में वित्तीय सफलता का अनुभव किया है। यह दूरबीन SETI अनुसंधान में दिन में 24 घंटे, सप्ताह में 7 दिन शामिल होगी। ब्रह्मांड के अन्य हिस्सों में जीवन के संकेतों की खोज व्यक्तिगत तारा प्रणालियों के रेडियो उत्सर्जन को देखकर की जाती है। सिस्टम में प्रत्येक तारे की जांच उन संभावित ग्रहों के लिए की जाती है जो तारे की परिक्रमा कर रहे हों। नए प्रस्तावित एलन टेलीस्कोप का एक लाभ यह है कि यह एक समय में एक से अधिक तारों को देख सकता है। वर्तमान रेडियो दूरबीन किसी भी समय केवल एक तारे की खोज करने तक सीमित हैं। एलन टेलीस्कोप का एक और लाभ यह है कि यह वर्तमान में उपयोग में आने वाले अधिकांश रेडियो दूरबीनों जैसे कि अरेसीबो टेलीस्कोप की तरह सिर्फ़ एक बड़ी कटोरी के आकार की डिस्क नहीं होगी। अरेसीबो एक बड़ी डिस्क है जिसकी चौड़ाई 305 मीटर है। एलन टेलीस्कोप छोटी कटोरी के आकार की डिस्क की एक श्रृंखला होगी जो एक साथ जुड़ी होंगी। जब भी वैज्ञानिक दूरबीन को बड़ा करना चाहेंगे तो उन्हें बस और डिस्क जोड़नी होंगी। एलन डिस्क में ऐसे एंटेना होंगे जो 1000 से 10,000 मेगाहर्ट्ज़ तक की आवृत्तियों वाली रेडियो तरंगों का पता लगाने में सक्षम होंगे। एलन टेलीस्कोप एरे को हमारी दूरबीन क्षमताओं में शामिल करने से वैज्ञानिकों की अन्य दुनिया में जीवन की खोज जारी रखने की क्षमता में बहुत वृद्धि होगी।
एलियन खोजने का तरीका कैसी भी हो मगर यह सच है मिशन एलियन वाली क्यूरोसिटी हमरा दिन वदिन नया नया कौशल को ही बढ़ावा देता रहेगा

Lo spinosauro non nuotava dopo la cena, afferma uno studio Lo spinosauro: una questione spinosa tra gli esperti di dinosauri Lo Spinosaurus, uno dei più grandi dinosauri carnivori, mangiava pesce, ma resta un mistero se nuotasse o meno. Alcuni esperti credono che nuotasse sott’acqua come una rarità tra i dinosauri, altri dubitano. Un nuovo studio ribatte alla teoria del nuoto La ricerca pubblicata su PLOS One sostiene che lo Spinosaurus non sapeva nuotare, contraddicendo uno studio precedente che suggeriva il contrario. L’analisi della densità ossea era considerata “statisticamente errata” da Nathan Myhrvold e Paul Sereno. Le argomentazioni a favore della non-natatoria dello Spinosaurus Secondo Myhrvold e Sereno, la struttura del

"Elon Musk is, quite obviously, a polymath."
These are the words of John Gruber, who I've read for years and both trust and admire. But the assertion that Elon Musk is "obviously" a polymath fits into the weird Musk groupthink that continues to infect the brains of otherwise astute observers.
Nathan Myhrvold wrote the James Beard cookbook of the year while serving as Microsoft CTO. He's also published peer reviwed papers on paleobiology, climate science, and astronomy. Go read his Wikipedia entry for more. He's a polymath. Musk is just a CEO who doesn't understand how Twitter works.
