Must have been a cool piece of gear back in the day^^. Heat the rocks in a fire, drop them in the brazier, put the weed on top - it's prehistoric vaping!

The first AI universe sim is fast and accurate and its creators don't know how it works
For the first time, astrophysicists have used artificial intelligence techniques to generate complex 3D simulations of the universe. The results are so fast, accurate and robust that even the creators aren't sure how it all works. The Deep Density Displacement Model can accurately simulate how the cosmos would look if certain parameters were tweaked -- such as the dark matter composition of the universe -- even though the model never received training data where those parameters varied.

Quantum Darwinism may solve the question of whether God plays dice or not

Interesting article (I loooooved quantum theory, but sucked at math and became a biologist instead), but I don't like the analogy to species evolution (it's not "Darwinism"). From what I garnered from the article, the described phenomenon seems more of a filter, a mechanism capable of biasing what becomes observable in the "classic" world, although "filter" isn't an appropriate analogy either. Regardless, there's no mention of this process leading to the evolution of new forms of particles.

Making spherical aberration a thing of the past...
A Mexican Physicist Solved a 2,000-Year Old Problem That Will Lead to Cheaper, Sharper Lenses
http://flip.it/Y8xGO7
Not a good link... Flip 8th article down
Thanks to Rafael G. González-Acuña, a doctoral student at Mexico’s Tecnológico de Monterrey. After months of work, he managed to come up with a mind-melting equation that provides an analytical solution for counteracting spherical aberration, which had been previously formulated back in 1949 as the Wasserman-Wolf problem which has stumped scientists for decades.I am not in your hurry

Scientists don't underllstand quantum mechanics and don't care. Scientists who stray from the orthodoxy can't publish and are shunned. (But don't tell Ron Johnson.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/07/o...m-physics.html
Anyway, the orthodoxy eventually breaks down and the truth comes out. It just takes a while sometimes. Galileo was right.
