Also wenn der Prozessor mal wieder glüht ... ich glaube ich muss mir für Film codieren mal was anderes ausdenken.

All #Religions Can’t Be Right, But They Could All Be Wrong!

What if your religion isn’t the one true path, but just the one you happened to be born into? When every religion claims to be the truth, but they contradict each other, what does that say about the whole system? This is where #doubt begins and honest #thinking starts.

It is amazing how many brilliant people I know say that they don't learn the fastest, but they stare at things for a long time and learn very deeply.

In his talk, Mancuso juxtaposed a slide of the nodes and links in one of these subterranean forest networks with a diagram of the Internet, and suggested that in some respects the former was superior. “Plants are able to create scalable networks of self-maintaining, self-operating, and self-repairing units,” he said. “Plants.”

"Descartes, who believed that only humans possessed self-consciousness, was unable to credit the idea that other animals could suffer from pain. So he dismissed their screams and howls as mere reflexes, as meaningless physiological noise. Could it be remotely possible that we are now making the same mistake with plants?"
