patchy series is no match for the Bowie film

patchy series is no match for the Bowie film

How much you enjoy The Man Who Fell to Earth will depend on your fondness for a few different things. First of all, do you enjoy it when alien characters arrive on Earth and raise eyebrows by behaving in an inappropriate but endearing manner? There’s a lot of that. Do you like seeing Rob Delaney in serious dramas? There’s that. And how much did you enjoy the cult David Bowie film it serves as a belated sequel to? I suspect that, if you loved the movie, you may not care much so much for the show – surely the opposite outcome to the one the creators intended. This Paramount+ series features Chiwetel Ejiofor as an alien from the planet Althea; Naomie Harris as Justin Falls, a physicist who has given up being a physicist; Clarke Peters as her wheelchair-bound father Josiah; and Jimmi… Source link

The Man Who Fell To Earth Review | TV Show

The Man Who Fell To Earth Review | TV Show

An alien (Chiwetel Ejiofor) crash lands in the New Mexican desert on a mission: he must find maverick scientist Justin Falls (Naomie Harris), the only person on Earth who can help save his planet. Together, the unlikely duo soon learn that it isn’t just his world that needs saving. Streaming on: Paramount+ Episodes viewed: 3 of 10 Though one of the unlikelier choices for the requel treatment, a 21st century update of Nicolas Roeg’s cult classic The Man Who Fell To Earth (itself an update of Walter Tevis’ 1963 novel) actually makes a lot of sense. The story of an alien crash-landing on Earth, on a mission to save their dying planet, is an allegory for immigration and the human experience that’s only grown more timely over the years. And it’s this contemporary resonance that… Source link

First plasma propels Zap Energy’s plans for garage-sized fusion reactors

First plasma propels Zap Energy’s plans for garage-sized fusion reactors

Nuclear fusion is an incredibly complex scientific problem that researchers are coming at from all sorts of angles, and Zap Energy is starting to make waves through one of the lesser-known approaches. The Seattle-based startup has achieved a major milestone for its Z-pinch fusion technology, and is now working to make it a commercial reality via modular, garage-sized reactors that could be scaled up to bring this experimental form of energy to the grid. Nuclear fusion research aims to recreate the process inside the Sun, where intense heat and pressure combine to create plasma in which atomic nuclei fuse together to release energy. Much of the effort in this field is focused on suspending these streams of plasma inside reactors shaped like donuts or twisted loops using incredibly… Source link

“Sentience” is the Wrong Question – O’Reilly

“Sentience” is the Wrong Question – O’Reilly

Last weekend, Blake Lemoine, a Google engineer, was suspended by Google for disclosing a series of conversations he had with LaMDA, Google’s impressive large model, in violation of his NDA. Lemoine’s claim that LaMDA has achieved “sentience” was widely publicized–and criticized–by almost every AI expert. And it’s only two weeks after Nando deFreitas, tweeting about DeepMind’s new Gato model, claimed that artificial general intelligence is only a matter of scale. I’m with the experts; I think Lemoine was taken in by his own willingness to believe, and I believe DeFreitas is wrong about general intelligence. But I also think that “sentience” and “general intelligence”… Source link

Saving Peck’s Rex | University of Notre Dame

Saving Peck’s Rex | University of Notre Dame

During his excursions to northeastern Montana, Rigby was often joined by Notre Dame students and adult volunteers, usually under the auspices of Earthwatch, a group based in Watertown, Massachusetts, that matches amateur scientists with projects conducted by researchers in a variety of fields including paleontology who need both financing and labor. Rigby had received support from Earthwatch since 1988, with some 420 volunteers having joined him in the desert badlands near Fort Peck. After finding a large area with the bones of a hadrosaur in the summer of 1996, Rigby and his team returned a year later to dig deeper. (In the interest of safety, security and science, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which now manages the area, asked that the exact location of Rigby’s fieldwork… Source link
