#Nobel Prize Winner

Her heart of compressed ash, which had resisted the most telling blows of daily reality without strain, fell apart with the first waves of nostalgia. The need to feel sad was becoming a vice as the years eroded her. She became human in her solitude.

The Wild Iris—by Louise Glück, who passed away Friday, Oct. 6, 2023

At the end of my suffering

there was a door.

Hear me out: that which you call death

I remember.

Overhead, noises, branches of the pine shifting.

Then nothing. The weak sun

flickered over the dry surface.

It is terrible to survive

as consciousness

buried in the dark earth.

Then it was over: that which you fear, being

a soul and unable

to speak, ending abruptly, the stiff earth

bending a little. And what I took to be

birds darting in low shrubs.

You who do not remember

passage from the other world

I tell you I could speak again: whatever

returns from oblivion returns

to find a voice:

from the center of my life came

a great fountain, deep blue

shadows on azure seawater.

Bob Dylan- Highway 61 Revisited

Highway 61 Revisited is the sixth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on August 30, 1965, by Columbia Records. Dylan continued the musical approach of his previous album Bringing It All Back Home (1965), using rock musicians as his backing band on every track of the album in a further departure from his primarily acoustic folk sound, except for the closing track, the 11-minute ballad "Desolation Row". Critics have focused on the innovative way Dylan combined driving, blues-based music with the subtlety of poetry to create songs that captured the political and cultural climate of contemporary America. Author Michael Gray argued that, in an important sense, the 1960s "started" with this album.

This is in my opinion one of the very best of Bob Dylan's albums.

Bob Dylan was 83 on the 24th May - and still the world listens..!

The Hemingway House in Key West

Acclaimed writer Ernest Hemingway’s travels took him all over the world, yet he made his home in the tropical climate of Key West, Florida.  Today, visitors can explore the Nobel Prize winning author’s home where he spent nearly ten years and which inspired some of his latest writings. Hemingway first arrived in Key West in the late-1920s with his second wife, Pauline Pfeiffer.  They eventually…

Charles H. Townes was born on July 28, 1915. An American physicist, Townes worked on the theory and application of the maser, for which he obtained the fundamental patent, and other work in quantum electronics associated with both maser and laser devices. He shared the 1964 Nobel Prize in Physics with Nikolay Basov and Alexander Prokhorov. Townes was an adviser to the United States Government, meeting every US president from Harry S. Truman (1945) to Bill Clinton (1999).

“If you really want to be good, you mustn’t work too hard. (...) If you take off the pressure and go off and go and walk for a day, then you can imagine new things.”

The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway

My first encounter with Hemingway and surprisingly, a forgettable and, dare I say it, regrettable one: did not meet expectations

It has taken me fifty years to read Ernest Hemingway although the man has been in my consciousness for many of those; through biography; through historical fiction in which he appears as a character; in the places I have visited, like Madeira, which were of importance to him. To say I had a connectedness to him is perhaps a bit presumptuous but he is someone with whom I have been intrigued for…

My idea for emergency evacuation of multi-story buildings. It’s still in the early concept stages but i see no reason why this couldn’t become standard practice for new construction by 2025 if you call your representatives.

The Legacy of AI Godfather and Nobel Prize Winner Geoffrey Hinton - Newsepick News

Geoffrey Hinton, often hailed as the "Godfather of Deep Learning," has transformed the world of AI 🌍. From his groundbreaking work in the 1980s with the backpropagation algorithm, which allowed neural networks to learn from errors 🔄, to co-developing the Boltzmann Machine—a model that inspired new architectures like Restricted Boltzmann Machines—Hinton has been a true innovator 💡. In 2018, Hinton was awarded the prestigious Turing Award 🏆 for his pioneering work in AI. In 2024, he made history again by winning the Nobel Prize in Physics 🎖️, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest minds in AI history. His work continues to inspire the future of artificial intelligence 🤖.
