The cells of your body follow simple rules and play off one another to form a complete organism. The researcher Alexander Mordvintsev has developed “neural cellular automata,” building blocks that can self-assemble into any form. @georgemusser.com reports: www.quantamagazine.org/self-assembl...
Self-Assembly Gets Automated in Reverse of ‘Game of Life’ | Quanta Magazine
In cellular automata, simple rules create elaborate structures. Now researchers can start with the structures and reverse-engineer the rules.

ReasonRX was an epistemological podcast on methods of learning and teaching and the philosophy and science of knowledge. It made an excellent forum to discuss how we figured out physics. This episode will be of particular interest to homeschoolers and educators.🧪

What is "Jewish Physics?" Are there other kinds of physics? Or is there just... physics? And how did these questions play out in the early years of relativity and quantum mechanics?

Plasma turbulence in Earth’s ionosphere can disrupt radio communications, GPS, and even global internet connectivity. It's difficult to predict. Now researchers have shown that a burst of ionospheric turbulence had a specific cause in distant electric-field oscillations.
Atmospheric Turbulence Triggered by Events 20,000 km Up
Observations link turbulence in the ionosphere—a region essential for communications—with far-away disturbances associated with Earth’s magnetic field.

Ohm faced years of poverty and obscurity from a failure of German authorities to recognize the merit of his work: work like "Ohm's Law" which we now regard as fundamental to physics in general and electronics in particular. 🧪

At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me.
