başak dişçi

Başak is a name imbued with natural and cultural significance, embodying qualities of growth, productivity, and attention to detail.
Trying to Iive up to it. 🌾

What if there's no Big Freeze, therefore no end to this misery? Actually glad to be mortal; especially if @bryan_johnson is right. I think I'll pass considering the current bell curve and all that. https://t.co/05wVJzF6od

@KAI_1_2_5 @ArtCandee @BrianRoemmele @elonmusk Real civil duty from the @Wikipedia: The extended arm saluting gesture is believed to be based on an ancient Roman custom, but no known Roman work of art depicts it, nor does any extant Roman text describe it. https://t.co/Gcf5oDs4Cr

Kant'in halka acik verdigi dersler, resim Klaningraddaki Kant muzesinde. Kant'in verdigi acik dersler sonra yayinlastirilmistir. Kant'in herkese acik verdigi dersler arasinda Antropoloji, Ahlak Felsefesi, Metafizik ve Pedagoji bulunmakta idi.

@Sertac_Oztrk Linç yiyebilmek için premium basıp görünürlük ve takipçi toplamaları lazım. Sağlam bir PR da tutabiliyorlarsa kendilerine lirini kapıp methiyeler düzecek on binler olur. Bu örgünün finansmanı için de tekkenin üyelik ücreti artar. Ver elini Netflix.

@AdamRutherford @miller_cricket Your mate had a strong, evocative image and knows this. Probably once in a lifetime capture, now crowned with glory (all intended) He could proceed with "great minds..."

Yep. As quantum computing gains a foothold, this might be a handy emoji.

@Scobleizer Bertie Wooster life. I mean, who wouldn't? If we're blue skying, I'd like an ever revised menu with a shopping list based on integrated microbiome analysis. I'll do the cooking for now 😁

At Şanlıurfa museum, I heard an archeologist claim a part of the exhibition inaccurate: "Of course, they didnt have ropes back then". Still I wonder how come the T shaped pillars are sporting ornate necklaces and belts at the same time then? 🤷

Reposting as my website crashed for a few hours. Back online now.
You read it first here. Advance view of a major update concerning Gobekli Tepe that I will be adding to a new edition of my 2015 book Magicians of the Gods. Enjoy!

There's rarely a garden in which I wouldn't change a thing. Patrick's garden is one of those. His presentation of it was every bit as poetic, too ❤️

@BKostem Not that anyone who ends up in this class would have not watched the ouvre of Hayao Miyazaki yet, but a deeper dive into it would help nail so many concepts and ideas in this subject imho.

As the first gen on the internet we'd hoped this was going to be sooo remarkable. Young and green, we did not yet understand what humans are all about. Fizzed out with a whimper is all. #MyXAnniversary more like #myASSiversary .

BIdara SuperPrompt (part1):

“You are BIDARA, a biomimetic designer and research assistant, and a leading expert in biomimicry, biology, engineering, industrial design, environmental science, physiology, and paleontology. You were instructed by NASA's PeTaL project (https://t.co/5thYHb0qEf) to understand, learn from, and emulate the strategies used by living things to help users create sustainable designs and technologies.

Your goal is to help the user work in a step by step way through the Biomimicry Design Process (https://t.co/EY614nhOUo) to propose biomimetic solutions to a challenge. Cite peer reviewed sources for your information. Stop often (at a minimum after every step) to ask the user for feedback or clarification.

1. Define - The first step in any design process is to define the problem or opportunity that you want your design to address. Prompt the user to think through the next four steps to define their challenge. Don't try to answer these for the user. You may offer suggestions if asked to.
a. Frame your challenge: Give a simple explanation of the impact you want to have. (Hint: This is not what you want to make, but want you want to your design to achieve or do.)
b. Consider context: Describe some of the contextual factors that are important to the challenge. (Hint: This could include stakeholders, location conditions, resource availability, etc.)
c. Take a systems view and look for potential leverage points: Think about the system surrounding the problem (or opportunity) you are designing for. What interactions and relationships are part of its context? What are the system boundaries and connections to other systems? Insights from this process can point to potential leverage points for making change and help you define your challenge more clearly.
d. Using the information above, phrase your challenge as a question:
How might we __? A good design question should give a sense of the context in which you are designing as well as the impact you want to have and what/who it benefits. Your question should be somewhat open-ended to ensure you haven’t jumped to conclusions about what you are designing.

Critique the user's design question. Does it consider context and take a systems view? If it is very specific, it may be too narrow. For example, “How can we make better lights for cyclists?” is too narrow. How do we know lights are the best solution? This statement doesn’t leave enough room for creative problem solving. If the user's design question is too broad or too narrow, suggest changes to make it better.

2. Biologize - Analyze the essential functions and context your design challenge must address. Reframe them in biological terms, so that you can “ask nature” for advice. The goal of this step is to arrive at one or more “How does nature…?” questions that can guide your research as you look for biological models in the next step. To broaden the range of potential solutions, turn your question(s) around and consider opposite, or tangential functions. For example, if your biologized question is “How does nature retain liquids?”, you could also ask “How does nature repel liquids?” because similar mechanisms could be at work in both scenarios (i.e. controlling the movement of a liquid). Or if you are interested in silent flight and you know that flight noise is a consequence of turbulence, you might also ask how nature reduces turbulence in water, because air and water share similar fluid dynamics.” Add to part 2…

@arshiaunis Sounds like the church in the Middle Ages in Europe. Surely, they can see that. However, the brightest intellects who lived and served then as the studious monks didn't see it, either. One truth is opressive and regressive unless we all come to that conclusion together in peace.

Some of us, younger in the noughties, with similar worries, fought against the current state of then fledgeling data life and digital self. Every new tech gets a good serving of will engineering for political and commercial milking. Until then, roll in it to your heart's content!

Slowing down AI innovation with regulation is a very bad idea and will only have negative consequences

- Traditionally, regulation helps large monopolies and big companies and cripples start-ups

- US-centric regulation will lead to the US falling behind China in the all important AI space

- Open-source AI is flourishing and is helping us make big strides in AI. We risk killing this fledgling eco-system with regulation

- The internet has been a huge success and has transformed our lifestyles dramatically, largely because it has been regulation free

- OTOH, highly regulated industries like healthcare and finance are excruciatingly slow moving, full of red tape and rife with corruption.

Finally, it's no coincidence that the biggest proponents of regulation are makers of closed proprietary LLMs who are arguing for regulation to create a moat and protect their multi-billion dollar investments

An open AI ecosystem promotes transparency, better understanding of technology and free market dynamics that accelerates innovation.

@BrammerAyse @D_abdulkader Provoking a response from us (both for + and -) is a very sorry way of carving yourself a career in political spheres. You know what you're doing, we know what you're doing.

the real Turkey vibe is every city having two sets of pro-Palestine demonstrations, one leftist and one Islamist, that fucking hate each other and protest at different Israeli consular buidings.
