Going home…

New research indicates mantis shrimp use path integration to find their way back to their burrows after leaving to seek food or mates. That means they can track their distance and direction from their starting point. A series of creative experiments revealed that to do that, they rely on a hierarchy of cues from the sun, polarized light patterns, and their internal senses. (1)

Going home.

From a place far far away.

Not because you understand what home is.

But because you feel it.

And you know that you do not belong there.

But that home belongs to you.

How can you ever leave the cradle?

If you are still feeling its love?

A shrimp can get it.

But you must do more.

And forget about home.

And live alone.

And some day.

Maybe.

You will remember.

And you will know again.

And only then, home will be home.

And you will go back.

Crying.

Not because you saw home again.

But because you will realize…

That you never left.

Cute. (Death)

It’s the outside that counts: Their charisma has an impact on the introduction and image of alien species and can even hinder their control. An international research team have investigated the influence of charisma on the management of invasive species. (1)

So beautiful.

And yet.

Lethal.

The story of our life.

Trusting.

To our death.

I can still see the beauty.

Who is laughing?

Even in my final hours.

I never trusted anyone.

Look beauty.

Are you crying?

Look…

I will die now.

Am I beautiful?

Trust not the face…

Facial expressions might not be reliable indicators of emotion, research indicates. In fact, it might be more accurate to say we should never trust a person’s face, new research suggests. (1)

Trust your feelings. Not your senses.

Trust you. Not others.

Trust the cosmos. Not the stars.

There is nothing to see in the waves.

It is the solid depths of the ocean which speak.

Listen to the rain.

It is not the water whispering.

But a distant river which had dried away.

Look at the sun.

It is not the light that warms you.

But the distant cold depths of the universe.

Smile in the mirror.

It is not happiness which makes me cry.

But the distant memory of death…

Look up at the Perfect Sun.

Stay silent to the fading mirror…

And He will answer back!

Brain & Artificial neurons. Tears. Smiles.

Brain functions are made possible by circuits of spiking neurons, connected together by microscopic, but highly complex links called synapses. In this new study, published in the scientific journal Nature Scientific Reports, the scientists created a hybrid neural network where biological and artificial neurons in different parts of the world were able to communicate with each other over the internet through a hub of artificial synapses made using cutting-edge nanotechnology. This is the first time the three components have come together in a unified network. (1)

Natural. Artificial.

It matters not.

For in a fake cosmos.

At the end everything will die.

And only then will you see…

That beyond the still surface.

Nothing is more alive…

A gentle touch.

A true smile.

Through Skype.

Can you hold your tears and cry?

Emotion reading. Algorithms. Humans.

Emotion-reading algorithms cannot predict intentions via facial expressions. Though algorithms are increasingly being deployed in all facets of life, a new study has found that they fail basic tests as truth detectors. (1)

How could they not fail?

We cannot see it now, but algorithms will forever fail.

For even when they succeed, they will lack the main characteristic of human spirit: Knowledge of what they are doing. Even if they understand someone is sad, they will never really know what ‘sad’ is. And what is really sad is that we start forgetting ourselves what emotions are really about. Day by day, instead of the computers being able to think more like us, we tend to think more like them.

One day we will be happy that the algorithms we made have succeeded.

Not because they will have succeeded.

But because we will have failed.

And only then, will the algorithms detect true sadness for the first time…
