Gravitational signals cover all the same frequencies are electromagnetism

At https://www.emf-corp.com/optical-materials/optical-material-infrared-optics/ please use the empty space to extend to 1E15 meters to cover low fruquency electromagnetic and gravitational wavelenghts. In frequency units 1 nanoHertz has a wavelength of 2.99792458E17 meters or 1E9 Light Seconds. I am looking for LWIR and longer wavelength lens materials. Since I work a lot with gravitational sensors, it always

Standardizing the Semiconductor Manufacturing Backend

Too Much Fab And Test Data, Low Utilization by Anne Meixner at https://semiengineering.com/too-much-fab-and-test-data-low-utilization/ Anne,  I am preparing for a seminar today (22 Feb 2024) titled, “Standardizing the Semiconductor Manufacturing Backend”. When I was reading the background on the presenters, this article of yours, “Too much fame and test data, low utilization” was a good resource.

replay of memories or experiences.  Including memories from others. Optimal gathering can be taught.

Juan Álvaro Gallego @JAlGallego Very cool! Apparently, ADHD could potentially be evolutionarily advantagous for gatherer peoples… Congrats to the authors! PS 1st author neuroscientist + philosopher David is on the job market 😉 David L Barack @DLBarack Excited to see this out in the wild! https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspb.2022.2584 Here, we (myself, Vera Ludwig, Felipe Parodi, Elizabeth Brannon,

Should work for a range of repetitive and memorization intensive tasks.

Rafael Polania @RafaPolania New pub! Is it possible to modulate sensory information processing in a non-invasive manner by modulating ongoing oscillatory activity in the prefrontal cortex in humans? Yes, we can! Take a look at our Open Access pub @NatureHumBehav https://nature.com/articles/s41562-024-01820-z Replying to @RafaPolania and @NatureHumBehav You should be able to modulate to test and record.

SEMI seminar on SpectroChip

Kevin, Sean – Thanks for the presentation and discussion I made many comments. Thank you for responding.  The need is for hundreds of millions of these. Since there are also array applications, possibly billions.To use with cell phone, you can use the FLIR thermal sensor approach which is USB C plug-in to the phone, or

AIs must log their experiences and abilities

Philipp Schmid @_philschmid Speculative Decoding is a method to speed up the text generation of LLMs, but requires additional parameters or a separate smaller model. @Apple now proposes Speculative Streaming, which integrates speculative decoding into a single LLM to speed up inference without degrading… https://pic.twitter.com/7A3N75wyTV Replying to @_philschmid and @Apple Philipp, Stop saying “a separate
