About this partnership.
AppHarvest is exploring the future of indoor farming and agriculture technology by using up to 90% less water, human-assisting AI, and the power of the sun for reliable food growth.
In this video we jump trillions of years into the future to examine the concept of civilizations living in a dark, post-stellar Universe, where we encounter some surprising possibilities about just how abundant and robust life might be in a seemingly dark and dead Universe.

Identical in practically every aspect. We don’t come from primates, we are primates.
We are not a race, we are a species. We are animals. We are mammals. We are a product of nature. We belong to it and we are a part of it.

Glaucoma impacts tens of millions of people globally, and is the second leading cause of blindness, after cataracts. Now, Purdue University researchers have developed smart contact lenses that may help save people’s sight.
Glaucoma is a multifactorial optic degenerative neuropathy characterized by the loss of retinal ganglion cells. It is a combination of vascular, genetic, anatomical, and immune factors. Glaucoma poses a significant public health concern as it is the second leading cause of blindness after cataracts, and this blindness is usually irreversible. It is estimated that 57.5 million people worldwide are affected by primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). People over 60 years of age, family members of those already diagnosed with glaucoma, steroid users, diabetics, as well as those with high myopia, hypertension, central cornea thickness of.
The White House deleted a tweet after it was fact checked by not only Twitter, but CNN’s fact-checker Daniel Dale. Elections to me are often more comedy than content. Ironically the White House and all who want the blue tic authenticity will have to pay Musk whether they like it or not. The exodus should be interesting to watch, but if Musk makes some magic on Twitter, many may have to join again and pay to have relevance on Twitter, so Musk’s main focus right now should be on features. If it should be on something else, by all means tell me what has more value. I said focus on Twitter as there is no need to tell competitors everything but the kitchen sink (that Musk brought in on day one). Its nice to watch people find one feature try to respond, not knowing many features are coming before they can even implement one. Its a psychological war that can have someone beat, and thinking they can’t compete. MySpace has been better than Facebook. Drake was discovered on MySpace, not Facebook. Yet MySpace hasn’t been able to capitalize on such realities. Transmeta also could not focus on it’s strengths, and Intel easily beat them.
Video on prosthetic Esper hand.
New York-based engineering startup Esper Bionics has developed a flexible prosthetic mind-controlled hand that learns how to suggest the best grip faster than similar prosthetics.
Esper Bionics’ robotic arm is designed to be lighter and learn faster than many of the prosthetics currently available for amputees. The more the wearer uses the hand, the better and quicker it is to suggest the right grip.

The meat of the future may be cultured directly from animal cells without slaughtering livestock. It’s not yet sold in the U.S., but NPR got a tour of a leading start-up and a taste of their chicken.
