It's better to concentrate on precise movements executed in perfect harmony, than powerful single tugs. With this in mind, the scientists from the Biomimetics and Dexterous Manipulation Laboratory (BDML) were able to use just six of their 17-gram microTug robots to pull an 1,800 kg car. MicroTug, MicroTug, does whatever a spider can

While many tech moguls dream of changing the way we live with new smart devices or social media apps, one Russian internet millionaire is trying to change nothing less than our destiny, by making it possible to upload a human brain to a computer, reports Tristan Quinn. "Within the next 30 years", for 30 years running

freeing them from the biological constraints of the body.
I quite enjoy some of those "constraints", and if death is a part of that experience, then so be it. I cannot imagine a worse death than for my personality to be locked up in some machine, never to truly live.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Built with Microsoft's open source Roslyn compiler, Peachpie leverages .Net's metaprogramming technologies in PHP OK, I take it back. There can be bad pie
Yeah, I'm not going to count kidney pie. That doesn't count as pie.

Stuff like writing an HTTP server in JS and then writing JS utilities/services running on top of it?

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Fekkit, I'm going to implement MUMPS.Net then (Mumps[^]).
That'll teach the bar stewards.

OK, I'll add an even more competitive system: PHP_MUMPS. That will be the source of most WTFs ever.

I'll take that and raise you a pinch of JavaScript (especially the fact that variables are global by default, and that a misspelling will introduce a new global - even MUMPS got that right).

Computer scientists at Microsoft have developed a new artificial intelligence platform atop the hugely popular video game Minecraft. Dubbed AIX, the platform hooks into Minecraft and allows the AI to take control of a character and learn from its actions. Now we'll have bots mining our precious blocks
