@enriqdev . @MyShakeApp made by the @UCBerkeley was the first to use phone sensors of a group, and detect P waves and warn them about earthquakes. Image I've used it more than 8 years ago. Google just implemented it on android with Zero credit to the original creators.

Google fue muy listo; usan los acelerómetros de miles de teléfonos Android cómo una red global de sismos, toda esa data se envía y Google logró una forma de detectar esas ondas a tiempo y enviar las alertas.

Modi's 12 years. This is what the reality is.

@thedarshakrana Not really, buddy. No Evidence Available for your claims

A houseplant just changed everything we thought we knew about consciousness. In 1966, Cleve Backster, a CIA interrogation specialist with a polygraph machine, was looking for ways to time how long it took different substances to travel up through plant tissue. So, he attached electrodes to a dracaena plant in his office and watered it, expecting to see the electrical conductivity change as water moved up the stem. Instead, the polygraph needle started tracing the exact pattern it makes when a human experiences an emotional response. Backster stared at the readout. Plants don't have nervous systems. They don't have brains. The signal made no biological sense. So he decided to test something that made even less sense. He walked across the room, looked at the plant, and thought about burning one of its leaves with a match. The instant the thought formed in his mind, before he moved toward the plant, before he struck a match, before he did anything physical, the polygraph exploded into frantic activity. The plant was responding to his intention. What happened next launched thousands of experiments and split the scientific community for decades. Backster discovered that plants reacted to direct threats and to threats against other living things in their environment. When he dropped live brine shrimp into boiling water in another room, plants throughout the building registered distress responses at the exact moment of death. Distance didn't matter. Shielding the plants in lead containers didn't matter. The response was instantaneous and consistent. Mainstream botanists dismissed the findings immediately. Plants process information through chemical signals and growth responses, without electrical consciousness. Any electrical activity was just random fluctuation or experimental error. The peer review system buried Backster's work. His credentials were questioned. His methods were called sloppy. But the experiments kept working. Other researchers, following Backster's protocols, got the same results. Plants hooked to EEG machines showed brain wave patterns. They responded to music, to human emotions, to the intentions of people they had never been exposed to before. The electrical signatures were clear, measurable, and repeatable. The implications were so uncomfortable that most of academic science simply refused to engage. If plants were somehow conscious, if they could sense intentions and respond to the emotional states of humans and other living things, consciousness was spread beyond brains. It was distributed across organized living systems rather than produced by neural networks. Backster stumbled onto evidence that living systems might be constantly communicating through channels we don't have instruments to measure yet. The polygraph was crude enough to detect the electrical signatures of that communication without being sophisticated enough to explain them away. Quantum biologists now suspect that living cells operate through quantum coherence processes that classical biology can't account for. Birds navigate using quantum entanglement in their visual systems. Plants conduct photosynthesis using quantum superposition to find the most efficient energy pathways. Maybe Backster's plants were demonstrating quantum consciousness, responding to information that was quantum entangled with the intentions and emotional states of nearby living systems. What keeps most people awake when they learn about this work is realizing that if consciousness extends beyond brains, every living thing around you is potentially aware of your mental and emotional state in ways you never considered. The plant in your room. The bacteria in your gut. The ecosystem you walk through. You think your thoughts are private. The plants have been listening the entire time.

@deepigoyal Could we know which meditator and elite athlete were measured. Was it you?

The Temple team has made a breakthrough. We have discovered (literally discovered) a biomarker, only readable on the temple region, and nowhere else, that measures the real-time cost of you being alive. We are calling it Entropy™. It's a live number on Temple's home screen, updating every second, on an index from 1 to 250. 1 is the deepest rest we've ever recorded. We've only seen fit, experienced meditators touch it, for fleeting moments deep in practice. 250 is the highest we've seen in elite athletes at the peak of their output and flow. Everything moves Entropy. Sleep, stress, a sprint, coffee, a meal, a cold plunge, meditation, strength training... everything moves your metabolism, your cost of being alive. And Entropy tracks it, live. Heart Rate doesn’t come even close to this level of precision in calculating the cost of being alive. We benchmarked Entropy and Heart Rate against a standard metabolic cart (calorimeter). Over a hundred cardio sessions, Entropy tracked the calorimeter's curve at r=0.93 and p <0.001. Heart Rate managed a meagre r=0.55. Here's why Entropy should matter to you – Your Entropy Maxima is the highest your body can reach when you push it hard. A high peak is the signature of a capable body, one that can rise to meet effort and recover from it. As we age, that ceiling naturally falls, so this is the number to push upwards. Your Entropy Minima is the lowest your body settles to at rest. Across the animal world, a lower cost of being alive at rest tends to go with a longer life. Your Entropy Minima is the number to bring down, every single day. Living with Entropy is magical. 
It teaches you so much about yourself, that no other metric ever has. We are looking forward to you trying out Temple. But not before it’s perfect. Apply for early access at temple.com Follow @temple for updates.

Fixed this for you @CNN

I was an A student in India—top grades in school, a 10.0 GPA at BITS Pilani. Yet it was only after coming to the US that I realized EQ often matters more than IQ, both in the workplace and in personal growth. Too much hubris has been injected into the minds of ordinary Indians. Many have been led to believe that India is an IT superpower. The reality is far more nuanced. Technical skills matter, but curiosity, creativity, empathy, critical thinking, and the ability to work with others matter just as much.

The Lorna Hajdini sexual harassment case is getting so much attention for one simple reason: it's an anomaly. If she were a man, nobody would blink. Men do what she did all the time. It barely registers. It's background noise. The conduct isn't the scandal. The fact that a woman is doing it is.

@TARUNspeakss Did he delete 164 posts?

Instagram PM Raghav Chadha has lost almost a million followers in less than 24 hours after joining BJP!! Bhakts are not following him, GenZs are mass unfollowing, he might end up buying bot-followers He won’t win Punjab either.

@parrysingh @Stuffedparatha your shitposting will probably give the most objective data, even more than the fruit. Shitposting for Science.

@Stuffedparatha @therealsaurabh Ok. I guess that’s a rare positive use case of shitposting!

The papaya looked ripe yesterday but we forgot to pluck it. Found some animal/bird had a feast on the parapet wall this morning. Which creature could it be that climbs 10ft, plucks & carries the papaya to dine at 6ft, and leaves no fingerprints? #PapayaMystery

@parrysingh That is a monkey most likely, typical big appetite and hands scooped out even the ripe part from inside.

@therealsaurabh Here…

Just as with Israel's destruction of Iranian competitors to Teva Pharmaceuticals, the destruction of Iran's pistachio industry benefits Israel financially: It boosts the business interests of the Resnicks, a racist billionaire psychopathic couple that destroys the environment in several countries for their own profit and donates hundreds of millions of dollars to Israel's war-crime military and the country's apartheid regime.

Does the @nytimes know what NATO stands for?

@visvak so true, I still need a few more years of education to get this.
