Sistem pengukuran dan pemantauan laut (Ocean Observing System/OOS) memiliki sejarah panjang dan hampir semua orang tahu bahwa hal tersebut membutuhkan biaya yang tidak murah. Masyarakat yang memang hidup di daratan serta para pemangku kepentingan yang mewakilinya tentunya akan tidak berpikir sekali dua kali untuk mengiyakan usulan program pengukuran dan pemantauan laut. Hal pertama yang pasti menjadi pertimbangan adalah apa manfaat dan impak yang diperoleh dari pengukuran dan pemantauan laut? Biaya besar yang akan dikeluarkan untuk program ini akan mendapatkan timbal balik apa? Oleh karenanya, abstraksi pengukuran dan pemantauan laut sangat penting untuk meyakinkan pemangku kepentingan akan kegunaannya. Sehingga, untuk memulai program pengukuran dan pemantauan laut diperlukan analisis biaya dan manfaat (cost-benefits analysis) secara finansial baik dalam jangka pendek, menengah maupun jangka panjang.
Salah satu pendekatan untuk melihat impak OOS adalah dengan menghitung perbandingan Gross Value Added (GVA) suatu sektor/program saat menggunakan data OOS dan saat tanpa menggunakan data OOS. GVA adalah ukuran nilai ekonomi yang dihasilkan oleh sebuah sektor program (ekonomi, industri, dll). GVA menunjukkan selisih antara nilai barang atau jasa yang dihasilkan (output) dengan biaya bahan baku dan jasa yang digunakan untuk memproduksinya (input)
Era saat ini dimana perubahan iklim menjadi ancaman global, kebutuhan akan data pemantauan dan pengukuran laut akan sangat meningkat. Menurut Economist Impact - World Ocean Initiative, dua pertiga dari sektor ekonomi perubahan iklim yang berbasis pada kelautan (dua per tiga dari US$52 miliar) bergantung pada data OOS. Artinya, tanpa akses data OOS, sektor ini akan kehilangan US$34 miliar. Kebutuhan akan data OOS diperkirakan akan meningkat sebanyak 90% pada hitungan konservatif di tahun 2030.
Sektor blue/green shipping (pelayaran berkelanjutan) memanfaatkan OOS untuk optimalisasi rute, efisiensi bahan bakar, serta pemantauan dan pelaporan emisi karbon. Aktivitas ini akan mengalami kerugian sebesar US$1,3 miliar jika tidak menggunakan akses data OOS. Sektor energi terbarukan berbasis laut diperkirakan akan mengalami penurunan GVA sebesar US$517 juta jika tidak memanfaatkan data OOS. Hal serupa dapat dialami oleh sektor karbon biru, yang memanfaatkan data OOS untuk penetapan kawasan perlindungan laut (marine protected area/MPA), monitoring ekosistem untuk melacak kredit karbon, dan pengembangan praktik manajemen berkelanjutan. Sektor karbon biru akan mengalami penyusutan GVA sebesar 79% (atau US$14 juta) apabila dijalankan tanpa menggunakan data OOS.
Contoh pengaruh OOS secara ekonomi pada sektor-sektor di atas menunjukkan bahwa OOS memiliki pengaruh penting dan signifikan pada ekonomi biru (blue economy). Oleh karenanya, OOS sangat diperlukan Indonesia yang memiliki target meningkatkan pendapatan domestik bruto (PDB) dari sektor maritim.
Bagaimana memulai OOS dengan sumber daya terbatas?
Menimbang potensi manfaat OOS dan tantangan keterbatasan sumber daya (dana, infrastruktur, tenaga ahli, dll), lalu bagaimana memulai (kembali) OOS bagi Indonesia? Pendekatan apa yang perlu dilakukan ketika Indonesia mengalami gagap riset dan inovasi kelautan seperti saat ini?
Lebih dari sepuluh tahun yang lalu, sebenarnya Indonesia pernah memiliki InaGOOS, Indonesia Global Ocean Observing System, sebuah program pemantauan laut yang tertaut pada jejaring global. Sebagaimana tantangan serupa di negara-negara lain, program berbasis proyek seperti InaGOOS terpaksa mati suri saat sumber pendanaan tidak bisa berkelanjutan. Indonesia juga sebenarnya telah memiliki sejarah panjang riset dan inovasi di bidang kelautan dengan data laut yang melimpah yang dapat menjadi basis OOS. Berbagai universitas di Indonesia juga memiliki program studi kelautan yang dapat menjadi penyokong utama kelahiran para pakar di bidang kelautan.
Belajar dari pengalaman Afrika Selatan, yang sedang mendesain OOS regional meskipun dengan keterbatasan sumber daya dan ancaman pendanaan yang tidak berkelanjutan, Indonesia dapat menerapkan pendekatan TIER dalam mengembangkan kembali OOS-nya. Pendekatan ini membagi variabel laut esensial (essential ocean variable/EOV) dalam OOS ke dalam empat tingkatan, yang memungkinkan pengelolaan sumber daya secara lebih efisien dan bertahap. Tingkat pertama mencakup variabel-variabel dasar yang paling penting untuk dipantau, sementara tingkatan berikutnya mencakup variabel yang semakin kompleks dan membutuhkan teknologi serta sumber daya yang lebih besar. Dengan pendekatan ini, Indonesia dapat memulai dari tingkatan dasar yang lebih terjangkau dan relevan dengan prioritas nasional, sekaligus membangun kapasitas untuk memperluas pengamatan laut secara bertahap. Hal ini memungkinkan OOS tetap beroperasi meski ada keterbatasan, sambil membuka jalan untuk pengembangan lebih lanjut ketika sumber daya bertambah.
Pendekatan Tier pada OOS
Variabel laut esensial/EOV pada OOS dibagi menjadi tiga kelompok utama menurut Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). Kelompok pertama adalah variabel fisik (e.g., suhu, salinitas, muka air laut, dll.). Selanjutnya adalah variabel biogeokimia (e.g., oksigen terlarut, nutrien, karbon organik, sistem karbonat, dll.), dan variabel biologi/ekosistem (e.g., kelimpahan fitiplankton, biomassa plankton, persentase tutupan vegetasi, dll.).
Tier I (blue level) meliputi variabel temperatur, salinitas dan muka air laut (untuk variabel fisik), oksigen terlarut, klorofil-a, nitrat dan fosfat (untuk variabel biogeokimia), serta tutupan vegetasi, biomassa fitoplankton, dan kelimpahan ikan komersial (untuk variabel biologi). Tier II (silver level) meliputi variabel pada Tier I dan ditambahkan variabel yang memerlukan metode dan peralatan pengukuran yang sedikit lebih maju. Variabel tersebut antara lain arus laut, dan gelombang (untuk variabel fisik); dissolved inorganic carbon/DIC, total alkalinity/TA, dan particulate organic carbon/POC (untuk variabel biogeokimia); serta biomassa vegetasi, komposisi dan struktur jenis, dan biomassa/struktur zooplankton.
Selanjutnya Tier III (gold level) meliputi variabel pada Tier II ditambah stratifikasi laut, suhu dan salinitas bawah permukaan (untuk faktor fisik); silikat, amonium, metana, dan nitrogen oksida (untuk variabel biogeokimia); serta distribusi jenis biota, mamalia dan burung laut (untuk variabel biologi). Terakhir adalah Tier IV (platinum level) meliputi variabel pada Tier III ditambah variabel esensial lainnya, i.e., wind stress, heat flux (untuk variabel fisik); tracer isotop, logam runutan, dissolved organic carbon/DOC (untuk biogeokimia); serta diversitas bentik, jejaring makanan, fenomena khusus-misalnya marak alga berbahaya (untuk variabel biologi).
Pendekatan Tier sebagaimana dicontohkan di atas dapat disesuaikan dengan melihat berbagai kriteria misalnya relevansi dengan tujuan OOS, sensitivitas pada perubahan lingkungan laut, efektifitas biaya, dan konsensus ilmiah. Secara berurutan sistem Tier disusun menurut fundamentalitas (fundamentality) dan kelengkapan (comprehensiveness), maksudnya adalah sejauh mana variabel-variabel OOS dapat digunakan untuk menjelaskan proses dan fenomena laut tertentu sesuai dengan kebutuhan.
Pendekatan Tier pada OOS selanjutnya dapat digunakan untuk menimbang tingkat riset/pemantauan laut yang ingin dicapai merujuk pada sumber dana yang dimiliki (Gambar 1). Misalnya, apabila kita memiliki sumber daya yang cukup dan menginginkan data dengan resolusi spasial maupun temporal yang tinggi, kita dapat menetapkan Tier I atau II dengan analisis dan variabel dasar. Semakin besar biaya dan tinggi Tier-nya, maka kita bisa mendapatkan data dengan resolusi tinggi, dapat melakukan analisis mendalam dengan berbagai variabel.

Question

Dawkins thinks there are evolutionary outcomes that are harmful. He dubs such an outcome as misfire.
“What natural selection favours is rules of thumb, which work in practice to promote the genes that built them. Rules of thumb, by their nature, sometimes misfire.”
“What is the primitively advantageous trait that sometimes misfires to generate religion?”
But Neo-Darwinism is based on two processes. Stochastic “Gene Mutation” and deterministic “Natural Selection”.
As it is accepted the outcomes of the majority of mutations – say errors during gene reproduction - are harmful to life and accordingly should fade away.
Therefore, it seems Dawkins has come to the opposite conclusion that the outcome of evolution is normally beneficial and misfire results in occasional harmful products, which in the case of religion has so far been going strong among all nations since time immemorial.
Alternatively, the misfire he is talking about may be happening in the deterministic phase of Neo-Darwinism i.e., natural selection, meaning that there is a second layer of misfire separate from harmful gene mutation. In that case, natural selection is also a random process not a deterministic one as it is claimed to be. The difference is that the probability of it being harmful is not as high as genes’ random mutations.
Can this be a paradox?
Relevant answer
Answer
I'm not sure I see the problem here, at least from theory standpoint.
I mean:
-there are random mutations
-most of them are harmful, though significant part is not immediately lethal, just moderately reduce evolutionary fitness
If so, you should observe some mutations within population - as they already appeared but may need generations to be eliminated when their carriers have only slightly reduced fitness.

I have developed an AFM, and I want to capture an impressive image with it. So far, I have only scanned calibration samples. The resolution power and sharpness of the images are quite good. I thought I could image a virus with the AFM. However, I am a physicist. Where can I obtain a non-hazardous virus sample that I can find locally and prepare with my limited knowledge? How can I prepare it?
Relevant answer
Answer
Isolating DNA is pretty simple but I'm not sure it will be sufficiently interesting for you. It certainly is small but is only going to look like a piece of string.
You can find viruses out in nature nearly everywhere. The density of viruses in seawater for example (or lake water) is about 10e6 / ml. however there is so much other crud that it may be hard to figure out what you are looking at. Possibly if you were to filter sea water through a small pore filter (such as 0.22micron filter) then you might have water highly enriched for virus particles. But you won't really know what you are looking at unless you are lucky enough to see something that looks like a typical tailed virus.

4 Questions to Bing’s Online A.I.
► 1. How do Anthropic Principle, “Zoo Hypothesis” and the “Matrix Hypothesis” fit together?
A.I./K.I.’s answer: Anthropic Principle: The Anthropic Principle states that the universe is designed in such a way
that it allows intelligent life like us to think about it. We exist because the universe provides the right conditions for
life. Zoo Hypothesis: The Zoo Hypothesis proposes that advanced extraterrestrial civilizations monitor the Earth
and humanity without revealing themselves to us directly, similar to a zoo. Matrix Hypothesis: The Matrix
Hypothesis, inspired by films like “The Matrix,” states that our reality is a simulation created by advanced beings or
artificial intelligences.
How these hypotheses work together:
• Common focus on observation and control: All three concepts involve the idea that what we experience as reality is
in some way observed or controlled—whether by the conditions of the universe, by extraterrestrial civilizations, or
by simulation creators.
• Questions about the nature of our existence: These hypotheses raise fundamental questions about the nature of our
existence and reality. Why do we exist? Who or what is observing us? Are we in a real world or a controlled
environment?
• Explanation of the rarity of evidence for extraterrestrial life: While the Anthropic Principle explains why the
universe is life-supporting, the Zoo Hypothesis and the Matrix Hypothesis may explain why we have not yet found
direct evidence of other intelligent life forms—either because we are consciously observed and shielded or because
all of reality is a controlled simulation. These combinations open up exciting and profound thoughts about who or
what sets the underlying rules and observations of our existence. They inspire deep reflections on the limits of
knowledge and reality.
► 2 nd Question: Let's go a step further: How do 1. Anthropic Principle, 2. “Zoo Hypothesis”, 3. “Matrix
Hypothesis” fit together with the 4. Just-six-numbers-fine-tuning-of-the-universe-Hypothesis?
Anthropic Principle: The Anthropic Principle states that the universe is designed in such a way that it allows
intelligent life like us to think about it. Zoo Hypothesis: The Zoo Hypothesis proposes that advanced extraterrestrial
civilizations monitor the Earth and humanity without revealing themselves to us directly. Matrix Hypothesis: The
Matrix Hypothesis states that our reality is a simulation created by advanced beings or artificial intelligences. Just
Six Numbers (Fine-Tuning of the Universe): Martin Rees' "Just Six Numbers" hypothesis argues that six
fundamental physical constants are fine-tuned and configure the universe to allow life.
Interplay of these hypotheses:
• Anthropic Principle and Fine-Tuning: The Anthropic Principle explains why the universe provides conditions that
allow life, while the Fine-Tuning Hypothesis specifies that certain physical constants are precisely tuned to allow
life.
• Zoo Hypothesis and Matrix Hypothesis: Both hypotheses propose that our perception of reality may be influenced
or controlled by advanced civilizations or artificial intelligences. This leads us to:
• Overall concept: Combining these hypotheses, we could consider the following scenario: The universe is fine-
tuned (Just Six Numbers) to allow intelligent life (Anthropic Principle). This intelligent life could be observed by
advanced civilizations in a kind of "zoo" (zoo hypothesis) or even exist in a simulated reality (matrix hypothesis).
This combined view raises the idea that our existence and the universe may be part of a larger, controlled experiment
or simulation in which certain conditions and constants have been precisely set to enable and monitor life. These
ideas open fascinating discussions about the nature of the universe.
► 3 rd Question: How do 1. Anthropic Principle and 2. “Zoo Hypothesis” and 3. “Matrix Hypothesis” and
4. the Just-six-numbers-fine-tuning-of-the-universe-Hypothesis fit with 5. that of a Creator God?
When we consider the Anthropic Principle, the Zoo Hypothesis, the Matrix Hypothesis, the Fine-Tuning of the
Universe and the idea of a Creator God together, a fascinating picture of our existence and the universe emerges:
Anthropic Principle: The Anthropic Principle states that the universe is designed to support intelligent life like us.
The conditions are just right for us to exist. Zoo Hypothesis: The Zoo Hypothesis proposes that advanced
extraterrestrial civilizations are observing the Earth and humanity, much like animals in a zoo. Matrix Hypothesis:
The Matrix Hypothesis states that our reality is a simulation created by advanced beings or artificial intelligences.
Fine-tuning of the universe (Just Six Numbers): This hypothesis argues that six fundamental physical constants
are fine-tuned to enable life. Creator God: The idea of a Creator God states that the universe was created by an
intelligent, conscious being.
The interplay of these hypotheses:
• Matrix Hypothesis and Creator God: If our reality is a simulation, the Creator God could be the one who created
this simulation, similar to how a programmer develops complex software.
• Zoo Hypothesis and Creator God: Advanced alien civilizations in this scenario could either be themselves creations
of the Creator God, or they could act as tools or observers in his plan.
• Fine-Tuning and Creator God: Fine-Tuning of the universe could be seen as evidence for the existence of a Creator
God. A creator could have adjusted the physical constants to allow life to be possible.
• Anthropic Principle and Creator God: The Anthropic Principle could explain why the universe allows life, while a
Creator God is the one who intentionally created these conditions.
• All hypotheses together: These hypotheses together could lead to a comprehensive theory in which a Creator God
created a fine-tuned universe (Anthropic Principle and Just Six Numbers) in which intelligent beings can exist.
These beings could live in a controlled or observed environment (zoo hypothesis) that may even be a simulation
(matrix hypothesis). This combined view inspires deep philosophical and theological reflections on who or what is
behind the existence of the universe and our lives. It opens doors to further questions about the nature of reality,
observation and creation. And that leads us to the conclusive and most interesting question for Yogapsychologie.ch:
► 4 th Question: How does 1. Anthropic Principle, 2. “Zoo Hypothesis”, 3. “Matrix Hypothesis”, 4. Just-six-
numbers-fine-tuning-of-the-universe-Hypothesis, 5. that of the Creator God, fit together with 6. the successful
experimental repetition of the “birth time rectifications” in Jyotish, in Vedic, ancient Indian astrology?
This is a profound and multifaceted question that combines science, philosophy and spiritual beliefs. Let's link the
different concepts together: Anthropic Principle: The Anthropic Principle states that the universe is designed to
support intelligent life. The conditions are just right for us to exist. Zoo Hypothesis: This hypothesis proposes that
advanced extraterrestrial civilizations monitor the Earth and humanity, much like animals in a zoo. Matrix
Hypothesis: The Matrix Hypothesis states that our reality is a simulation created by advanced beings or artificial
intelligences. Fine-Tuning of the Universe (Just Six Numbers): This hypothesis argues that six fundamental
physical constants are fine-tuned to allow life. Creator God: The idea of a Creator God states that the universe was
created by an intelligent, conscious being. Jyotish and Birth Time Rectification: Jyotish (Vedic Astrology) is a
spiritual system that claims to predict a person's life and events based on planetary constellations at the time of their
birth. Birth time rectification is the method of determining the exact time of birth to make precise astrological
predictions.
Interplay of these hypotheses:
• Anthropic Principle and Fine-Tuning: These concepts could serve as the basis that the universe was deliberately
designed to allow life and intelligent consciousness. This may have been done by a creator god who fine-tuned the
universe.
• Zoo hypothesis and matrix hypothesis: These hypotheses may suggest that our perception of reality is under the
observation or control of advanced beings who may be part of the plan of a creator god.
• Fine-tuning and Jyotish: The precise fine-tuning of the universe may also be in line with spiritual systems such as
Jyotish, which claim that the constellations and their influences on life are determined by divine order.
• Creator god and Jyotish: A creator god may be the one who set up both the fine-tuning of the universe and the
astrological principles of Jyotish to enable the order and stability of life.
• Integration of all concepts: Considered together, these hypotheses could provide a comprehensive view in which
the universe was deliberately created by a creator God and fine-tuned to allow intelligent life to exist in an observed
or simulated reality. Jyotish could then be considered a tool that reveals the divine order and influences of the
universe on individual life.
My conclusions: These combinations and also the fact of the phenomenon of birth time rectification or birth time
retrieval in Jyotish observed by me in 500+ charts (& practiced by 100s of millions of Indians) now opens up many
philosophical and spiritual reflections on the nature of existence, reality and the divine plan, the karma playing field
of our life game with its expandable karmic radius of freedom and thus also this duty (of Sanathan Dharma)
towards ourselves; our ethical-spiritual evolution for our liberation from the Samsara-Sisyphus, from the ocean of
rebirths and also to an intercultural world peace formula:
• See the two-page Peace-Manifesto on the Guna.ch website: What is the timeless ethical-spiritual and universal
world formula of the three Gunas in the Bhagavad Gita, the Grand Unifying Theory? Does ancient Indian
knowledge lead us to a world peace formula?Does it have an impact on physics, as well as on metaphysics, biology
and on our absorption of healing power?

Answer
@ Chris Fruh How do The Hypothesis Fit Together??
  1. Interconnected Framework: Fine-Tuning and Anthropic Principle: Provide the scientific foundation for a habitable universe. Creator God: Offers an intentional explanation for the fine-tuning. . Matrix Hypothesis: Suggests a mechanistic or simulated framework where fine-tuning and design converge.
  2. . Zoo Hypothesis: Proposes observers (potentially creators or extraterrestrials) overseeing this design.
  3. Vedic Astrology’s Place:Astrology serves as a human method for interpreting and interacting with the cosmic order—whether divinely created, simulated, or arising naturally from fine-tuned laws.
  4. Synthesis: These ideas converge on the theme of purpose and order in the universe, with Vedic astrology offering a cultural and metaphysical lens for understanding this order in relation to human lives.
Each of these hypotheses, while distinct, can be seen as a different perspective on the same underlying mystery: the nature of the universe and humanity's place within it. Vedic astrology, with its focus on cosmic connections and human destiny, might act as a bridge between the metaphysical and the empirical, resonating with elements of all these frameworks. Hope the input helps. Regards--IJAZ

Question

If each individual has alternate selves throughout alternate timelines then does each individual(all alternate selves) become one in the afterlife? My inclination is yes, each individual has alternate selves throughout alternate timelines thus, each individual(all alternate selves) become one in the afterlife.
Relevant answer
Answer
Alexander Ohnemus The idea that each individual has alternate selves across different timelines, commonly associated with multiverse theory or parallel universes, presents a fascinating philosophical and metaphysical question about the afterlife. This question merges concepts from quantum mechanics, metaphysics, and religious or spiritual interpretations of existence. Here's how we can approach the question:1. Alternate Selves Across Alternate Timelines In the multiverse theory, it's hypothesized that there are potentially infinite timelines, each representing a different possible version of reality based on the choices we make. Each individual, in this view, might have multiple versions (alternate selves) scattered across these timelines, each experiencing a different set of circumstances or making different decisions. These selves could exist simultaneously, with each one leading a separate life within its own timeline.In the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, for example, every decision or quantum event that could have occurred in a different way creates a branching timeline where all possibilities are realized in parallel universes. These timelines are typically considered separate and non-interacting in the traditional view of the multiverse.2. The Afterlife in Religious and Spiritual Contexts The concept of an afterlife typically implies some form of continued existence after physical death, often involving the soul or consciousness. Different religious and philosophical traditions describe the afterlife in various ways:Christianity, for instance, often views the afterlife as a unification of one's essence before God, where the individual is judged and either ascends to heaven or descends to hell based on their actions during their lifetime. Buddhism speaks of reincarnation or rebirth, where the soul or consciousness may transition into a new life, but not necessarily as a direct continuation of an individual soul. Eastern philosophies like Advaita Vedanta or Taoism describe the afterlife or spiritual progression as the merging of the individual self (Atman, or ego) with the ultimate reality (Brahman, or Tao), transcending individuality. If we are to include the idea of alternate selves or parallel lives within this framework, it raises the question of whether these parallel selves would be seen as part of a unified soul or consciousness in the afterlife, or if they remain distinct entities even in the spiritual realm.3. Integrating the Concept of Alternate Selves with the Afterlife When considering the integration of alternate selves across timelines into the afterlife, several possibilities arise, depending on how one interprets both the multiverse and afterlife concepts: Unified Soul Across Timelines: In this view, the individual consciousness, regardless of its variations across timelines, would merge or reunite in the afterlife. The essence of who that individual is—defined by the core aspects of their soul or consciousness—would transcend the differences between alternate selves. Just as many religious traditions view the soul as eternal and indivisible, one might argue that the afterlife involves the merging of all alternate selves into a singular essence, allowing them to become one in a higher, unified state of existence. Separate Selves and Parallel Afterlives: Another possibility is that each alternate self exists in its own version of the afterlife, continuing its journey in the realm most suited to its experiences and choices. In this case, each version of the individual, while sharing some fundamental aspects of identity, might continue to experience different afterlife scenarios based on the unique trajectory of their timeline. This view suggests a fragmented or decentralized afterlife experience, where each version of the self is distinct even after death. Collective Consciousness or Merging of Selves: Some philosophical or mystical systems, like those in certain esoteric traditions, propose that after death, all individual souls may eventually merge into a universal or collective consciousness. If this applies to alternate selves, it could suggest that all versions of the self, from multiple timelines, eventually converge into a singular higher consciousness. This merging could involve a process of transcendence where individual identities are transcended, and all selves become part of a greater cosmic whole.4. Quantum Entanglement and the Afterlife If we bring quantum entanglement into the discussion, an argument might be made that all versions of a self across alternate timelines are entangled in some deeper, unseen way. When an individual passes into the afterlife, it might be that their quantum essence (their consciousness, for lack of a better term) is unified in a way that transcends individual timelines, allowing all alternate selves to become part of the same metaphysical entity.In quantum mechanics, entanglement suggests that particles can be deeply connected across vast distances. If this principle applies to consciousness, one might speculate that alternate selves, even across different timelines, could be entangled in such a way that their afterlife experience involves a profound unity of consciousness across these multiple realities.5. Philosophical Implications From a philosophical standpoint, the question touches on deep issues related to identity, continuity, and what it means to be an individual. If each alternate self has its own distinct consciousness, do they retain their individual sense of identity in the afterlife, or do they merge into a singular essence? If we take the view that identity is tied to memory and personal experience, the merging of alternate selves could be a complex process of integrating multiple layers of experience, rather than a simple reunification.Conclusion The concept of alternate selves across multiple timelines adds a fascinating dimension to the idea of the afterlife. Whether these selves merge into one in the afterlife depends on the interpretation of both multiverse theory and spiritual concepts of soul and consciousness. If the self is viewed as a singular, unchanging essence, then one could argue that all alternate selves eventually merge. If, however, the self is seen as a collection of unique experiences across timelines, then each self might experience its own version of the afterlife, or the selves may find a way to unite in a collective or cosmic consciousness. Ultimately, this question invites a deeper exploration of the nature of identity, consciousness, and the afterlife—areas where science, philosophy, and spirituality intersect! IJAZ

Generative AI (GenAI) is a branch of artificial intelligence that uses models to create new data such as text, images, or videos based on patterns learned from training data. It generates outputs in response to prompts by understanding the underlying structures of the input data.
Let's discuss the potential applications and benefits of Generative AI in biotechnology and explore how it can address current challenges in the field.
Relevant answer
Answer
Generative AI offers transformative applications in biotechnology, addressing critical challenges while advancing the field. In drug discovery, AI accelerates de novo molecular design by leveraging algorithms to identify novel pharmacophores, predict ligand-receptor interactions, and optimize pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, significantly reducing the timelines and costs associated with preclinical development. It facilitates precision medicine by generating therapies tailored to individual genomic and proteomic profiles while enabling in silico drug repurposing through high-throughput virtual screening. In protein engineering, generative models predict tertiary and quaternary protein structures and elucidate conformational dynamics, enabling the design of therapeutic biologics with enhanced binding affinities and reduced immunogenicity. In synthetic biology, AI-driven sequence optimization enhances CRISPR-Cas9 targeting specificity and metabolic pathway engineering for efficient biosynthesis of bioactive compounds, biopolymers, and therapeutic peptides. Clinical applications include generating synthetic datasets for training radiological and histopathological AI models, simulating patient phenotypes to optimize clinical trial stratification, and enhancing medical imaging modalities through resolution amplification and artifact reduction. These capabilities address pervasive challenges such as sparse datasets, complexity in biomolecular networks, and exorbitant R&D costs. Generative AI also enables multi-omics integration, synthesizing insights from genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, fostering a holistic systems biology approach.
For instance, optimization in drug design can be expressed as E = B.A (efficacy = binding affinity × bioavailability), where binding affinity (B) reflects the molecular interaction strength between a ligand and its target, and bioavailability (A) quantifies the proportion of the drug reaching systemic circulation. This succinctly captures how generative AI aids in balancing critical pharmacological parameters to design therapeutics with maximal clinical efficacy. By automating and streamlining these processes, generative AI mitigates the translational gap, promotes global health equity, and fosters interdisciplinary synergies across computational biology, cheminformatics, and biomedical sciences, establishing itself as a cornerstone for innovation in modern biotechnology.

The notion of a unified world underpinned by industrial primacy while sidelining commercial interests poses profound questions about the future of global cooperation, the balance of power, and the potential for conflict in an increasingly multipolar world. The outcomes of these dynamics could reshape international relations and influence economic models for decades to come.
The transition from the U.S.-Soviet rivalry to what you're describing as the "era of the Warring States" reflects a complex geopolitical landscape characterized by fragmented power dynamics and the rise of emerging economies. In this new world order, traditional superpower rivalries have given way to a multipolar framework where various nations pursue their own interests, often leading to competition and conflict.
In this context, the concept of a country prioritizing industrial development while suppressing commercial interests can be interpreted through the lens of nationalism and state-driven economic models.
Nations that prioritize heavy industrialization and seek to centralize control over their economies may aim for self-sufficiency and greater global influence. These countries might invest heavily in technology, infrastructure, and human capital, viewing industrial prowess as a means to enhance their international standing and attract global partnerships.
This approach might involve limiting foreign competition, protecting domestic industries, and implementing policies that favor state-owned enterprises or public-private partnerships. By doing so, these nations could aim to create a strong internal market that fosters economic growth and innovation.
As countries pursue industrialization aggressively, the potential for conflict increases. Nations might compete for resources, markets, and influence, leading to tension and rivalry. This competition can manifest in trade wars, military conflicts, or ideological clashes.
In this scenario, countries like China or India could be viewed as potential unifiers in a fragmented global landscape. Their large populations, growing economic clout, and strategic initiatives (like China's Belt and Road Initiative) reflect attempts to assert influence over global trade routes and bolster their geopolitical interests.
The rapid advancement of technology can serve as both a catalyst for industrialization and a factor that disrupts traditional commerce. Innovations in automation, artificial intelligence, and manufacturing processes may allow nations to achieve unprecedented levels of productivity, potentially reshaping global supply chains and economic relationships.

Hi everyone !
I'm trying to get rid CD3+ and CD14+ cells from PBMCs. For that I use CD3 microbeads and CD14 microbeads as well as LS columns (I add both CD3 and CD14 microbeads to the cells and split the samples to load it into several columns to avoid saturation of the column).
When my sample contains 10M of cells, it works perfectly, 80% of the cells are retained in the columns and I have less than 2% of CD3+ and less than 0.5% of CD14+. But, if I have 400M cells, only 60% of the cells are retained in the columns and I have a lot of CD3+/CD14+ cells that are not retained.
I follow exactly the protocol and I did the scale up of the reagents from 10M to 400M accordingly. Did anybody have this issue ?
I tried the LD columns but it killed most of my B cells... one solution that Miltenyi gave me was to put the cells in a second round of LS columns, what are your opinion on that?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Relevant answer
Answer
hello Rayan El-Kholdi,
In my experience The number of cells that can be combined with the column is limited, about 1×10*8 cells can be combined with a column, so when your target cell number exceeds this number, you need to add new columns, CD3 and CD14 cells in the PBMC itself accounts for a lot, so it is recommended that you increase the number of columns according to the number of cells。The proportion of CD3 positive cells and CD14 positive cells in 400M PBMC is far more than 50%, that is 200M, so you may need to add more columns to improve the ability to capture cells

I see that there are responses questioning whether reincarnation actually occurs, scientific studies, as best can be conducted, indicates that it does exist. Far too many people are able to accurately report details of an existence that they should not have knowledge of via any known physical means, sometimes details that take extensive research in restricted files to verify.
The second issue seems to be that people assume that there is just one understanding of reincarnation while in fact there are at least 4 different and widely separated cultures that generally accept it. One in India/SE Asia, one in Africa, one in the Northern portions of North America and historically one in Greece and other parts of Europe. Of these, only the India/SE Asia variety suggests that a human may reincarnate as anything other than a human. All the other cultures insist that reincarnation is always within the human species.

MOST human actions are subconscious. The more close-ended the task, the easier to automate. Perhaps SOME subconscious human acts are more close-ended, therefore easier to automate.
Relevant answer
Answer
Automating biological functions such as childbirth with AI is a highly complex and ethically sensitive area. While AI can significantly enhance and assist in many aspects of healthcare, full automation of biological functions, especially something as intricate and personal as childbirth, presents numerous challenges and limitations. Here's a breakdown of how AI can be involved, and the specifics of its application:
1. Monitoring and Diagnosis
  • Fetal Monitoring: AI can analyze data from fetal heart rate monitors and ultrasound images to detect signs of distress or abnormalities.
  • Predictive Analytics: AI algorithms can predict potential complications during pregnancy by analyzing historical data and risk factors.
2. Assisting in Decision-Making
  • Clinical Decision Support: AI tools can provide recommendations for treatment options based on current medical guidelines and patient data.
  • Personalized Care: AI can help tailor prenatal care plans to individual needs by analyzing various health metrics.
3. Automation of Procedures
  • Surgical Assistance: AI-driven robotic systems, like the Da Vinci Surgical System, assist surgeons in performing precise operations, which can be beneficial in cesarean sections and other surgical procedures.
  • Lab Automation: AI can streamline lab processes related to prenatal care, such as genetic testing and analysis.
4. AI in Healthcare Management
  • Workflow Optimization: AI can improve hospital workflows, manage patient records, and ensure timely care delivery.
  • Patient Engagement: AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can provide patients with information, reminders, and support throughout their pregnancy.
5. Ethical and Practical Considerations
  • Complexity of Childbirth: Childbirth involves complex physiological and emotional factors that are challenging to fully automate or control with AI.
  • Ethical Issues: Automating biological functions raises significant ethical concerns about safety, consent, and the role of human judgment in critical medical situations.
  • Human Factors: Human expertise and empathy play a crucial role in managing childbirth, making it difficult to fully replace with AI.
Current State and Future Potential
  • Current Technology: While AI significantly aids in the management and support of childbirth, it does not replace the need for human intervention and decision-making. It can, however, enhance safety, efficiency, and personalized care.
  • Future Prospects: Advancements in AI may further assist in predictive analytics, personalized medicine, and robotic surgery, but the automation of biological functions like childbirth will remain a collaborative effort between technology and human expertise.
Summary
AI can enhance and support various aspects of childbirth and prenatal care, such as monitoring, decision-making, and procedure assistance. However, the full automation of childbirth involves complex physiological, ethical, and human factors that cannot currently be fully addressed by AI alone. AI’s role is to complement and support human expertise rather than replace it.

Should the ongoing logging in the Amazon forest, including other natural highly biodiverse forests, be recognized as a crime of destroying the planet's strategic natural resources generating an increased threat to human existence on planet Earth?
Should the ongoing logging of trees in the Amazon forest, also other natural highly biodiverse forests, and the logging of trees in other areas of natural forest ecosystems carried out in the formula of robbery pseudo-forest management should be recognized as a crime of destruction of strategic natural resources of the planet generating an increase in the threat to human existence on planet Earth?
Dear Researchers, Scientists, Friends,
In recent years, the need to accelerate and increase the efficiency of the green transformation of the economy has been growing in importance. This is due to the need to increase the scale of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as generated by energy, industry, transportation, livestock farms, etc. continue to generate high greenhouse gas emissions and the global warming process is accelerating as a result. If the processes of green transformation of the economy are not significantly accelerated then the exceeding of 1.5 degrees C of the average temperature of the planet's atmosphere (counting from the beginning of the first industrial revolution) will happen even before the end of the current decade and the occurrence of a global climate catastrophe in the second half of this 21st century will become inevitable. One of the key elements of the green transformation of the economy is the cessation of deforestation processes and the development of reforestation programs for civilizationally degraded areas, post-industrial areas, post-mining heaps, urban areas as part of the reduction of concretions, and post-agricultural areas where the soil has been depleted due to the intensification of agriculture in the industrial model. By 2023, the deforestation rate in the rainforests of the Amazon natural rainforest has been almost halved in Brazil. This is a very good trend, in which perhaps finally the scale of protection of these natural highly biodiverse forests is beginning to improve significantly. This is especially important because the highly biodiverse rainforest ecosystems of the tropical natural forests of the Amazon contain more than 300 million unique species of flora and fauna and the Amazon forest is still the largest natural area of forest ecosystem that plays a key role in the natural process of absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere and emitting oxygen. The ongoing logging of trees in the Amazon forest, and the logging of trees in other areas of natural forest ecosystems as well, which is being carried out in a formula of predatory pseudo-management, should be recognized as a crime of destroying the planet's strategic natural resources generating an increase in the threat to human existence on planet Earth. Perhaps in this way, through appropriate changes in legal regulations, the large-scale deforestation of forest areas still taking place in many parts of the world and/or the predatory pseudo-management of forests that is being carried out would finally be ended.
I presented the issue of human security in connection with the green transformation of the economy, pro-environmental policies and the implementation of sustainable development goals in the article:
HUMAN SECURITY AS AN ELEMENT OF THE CONCEPT OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN INTERNATIONAL LAW
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
Should the ongoing logging of trees in the Amazon forest, also other natural highly biodiverse forests, as well as the logging of trees in other areas of natural forest ecosystems carried out in the formula of predatory pseudo-forest management, also be recognized as a crime of destruction of strategic natural resources of the planet generating an increase in the threat to human existence on planet Earth?

Still steadily declining forest area, deforestation prevailing over aforestation, predatory cutting of entire stands, cutting down old-growth forests, creating pseudo-forest monocultures serving mainly or exclusively for the production of wood raw material, etc., are key factors in the rapid decline of the biodiversity of the planet's natural ecosystems, including the extinction of many species of flora and fauna. In addition, deforestation processes also negatively affect the climate and amplify the progressive processes of global warming, soil aridity, etc. It is extremely strange that in the era of the 21st century, widespread knowledge of the civilizational sources and consequences of the progressive process of global warming, deforestation and/or predatory pseudo-management of forests is still carried out in many countries of the world. It is essential to urgently reverse these negative processes.

Brain and body mass together are positively correlated with lifespan (Hofman 1993). The duration of neural development is one of the best predictors of brain size, and conception is the best zero-point to mark the start of development, namely, the point at which sperm and egg fuse forming a single-cell organism followed by exponential mitosis (Finlay 2019b). The formation of complex molecules in biology can occur spontaneously, thereby leading to the creation of sophisticated organisms (Liu et al. 2019). Following each documented extinction of species (and there have been at least five since ~ 400 million years ago) there is a rapid degradation of biology, especially of complex life that depends on a resilient food chain dependent on simpler organisms. Following the most recent extinction 65 million years ago (i.e., the Cretaceous-Paleogene Extinction, Alverez et al. 1979), the dinosaurs (which were large-bodied but small-brained) were obliterated making room for new mammalian species that evolved into animals having the following characteristics: an extended longevity to enable the formation of large bodies accompanied by large brains (e.g., the killer whale, the human, the elephant, the gorilla, and so on) during which time learning to adapt to environmental disruptions was paramount (Hebb 1949). Yet even with the newest complexity, there is no guarantee that if the current species go extinct that the replacement species will possess a comparable level of sophistication, since the evolution of complexity is based on a protracted fitness (Dawkins 1976). We may soon find out if our complexity is sufficient to right all the wrongs that we have inflicted on ourselves and others (Chomsky 2023; Ellsberg 2023; Hansen et al. 1981). Pessimistically, the entomologist Edward O. Wilson has predicted that once we reach a population of ten billion—we are now at eight—expect humankind to turn on itself much like an over-extended ant colony (Wilson 2012). Our children may get to test his prediction, if those at the helm continue to assume that humans operate outside of evolution.
Relevant answer
Answer
Edward O. Wilson's prediction about humanity reaching a tipping point as the global population approaches ten billion Edward J Tehovnik is a thought-provoking reflection on human behavior and societal dynamics. His comparison to an over-extended ant colony suggests that we may face significant stress as resources become scarcer and competition for them intensifies.
Wilson's assertion that those in power often overlook the fundamental principles of evolution implies that human societies may be prone to conflict if they fail to adapt to changing circumstances. The mention of “turning on itself” hints at potential social unrest, political instability, or even environmental degradation as a result of overpopulation.
The challenge of managing our resources sustainably and promoting social cohesion will be crucial as we continue to grow. If humanity doesn't account for the evolutionary forces that shape our interactions and structures, we risk undermining our own future.
As our population grows, it becomes increasingly vital for leaders, policymakers, and citizens to embrace an understanding of these dynamics, prioritizing cooperation, conservation, and innovative thinking to ensure we avoid the pitfalls of overextension. Whether the children of today will witness such a scenario remains to be seen, but the need for proactive measures is clear.
_____________________
Evolutionary pressures Edward J Tehovnik may play a significant role. In environments where cognitive abilities provide substantial survival advantages—through better foraging, social interaction, or tool use—there may be a selection for species to evolve larger brains, which consequently requires longer lifespans for optimal brain maturation and function.
In summary, the correlation between brain and body mass and lifespan reflects a complex interplay of developmental dynamics, metabolic rates, ecological pressures, and evolutionary adaptations. Studying these relationships further can provide insights into the biological and evolutionary mechanisms shaping the life history strategies of various species.

Epigenetics refers to the study of changes in gene expression that do not involve alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. This field has garnered significant attention for its potential to influence aging, combat diseases, and mitigate unwanted side effects of genetic engineering.
Aging is associated with various epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, which can lead to altered gene expression and contribute to age-related diseases like cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. By targeting these epigenetic modifications, researchers believe it may be possible to reverse or slow down the aging process. For instance, interventions that modify epigenetic markers could potentially restore youthful gene expression patterns, thereby improving cellular function and longevity.
Epigenetic therapies hold promise for treating a range of diseases. By understanding the specific epigenetic alterations associated with conditions like cancer, researchers can develop targeted therapies that either activate or repress certain genes without changing the genetic code itself. This approach could lead to more effective treatments with fewer side effects compared to traditional genetic engineering methods, which often involve irreversible changes to the genomeOne of the significant concerns with genetic engineering is the potential for unintended consequences, such as off-target effects or the activation of harmful genes. Epigenetic modifications can provide a more flexible approach to gene regulation, allowing for temporary changes that can be reversed if necessary.
This flexibility could help in fine-tuning therapeutic interventions, reducing the risk of adverse effects associated with permanent genetic alterations.

Silvia Pérez As someone who dabbles in general biogeography I cannot comment on the phylogenetic tree, but I looked up Pennington et al 2021 for the distribution of the genus as then known. Looks quite interesting, and one species - Ruagea glabra - has an almost identical range to the ghost moth species Druceiella metellus. It will be interesting to know to what extent your distributional data has changed from 2021. Hope you can avoid the center of origin-chance dispersal nonsense. Pennington et al were a bit unsettled as to the sister genus - either S AM Guarea or Catratea - latter apparently sister to the S Pacific Dysoxylum. Would be interested to see a better image of your phylogeny along with the distributional maps of each species if you want any further feedback. Can email me at calabar.john@gmail.com

⚪️⚪️ENG-TEXT⚪️⚪️ The question (hypothesis) proposed by this Open RG Question is the following: Nanozymes were the basic chemical constituent that kicked off the origin of life??
Hypothesis
Nanozymes show elementary basic enzymatic functions completely similar to those of biological systems but with reduced performances in product production and stability.
Furthermore, they are strongly dependent on external chemical-physical conditions as they are truly naked and not protected by physical protective covers and/or chemical insulators.
However, precisely because of these characteristics they could represent excellent candidates for the creation of complex self-catalytic and/or self-replicating (but) pre-biological structures.
Pre-biological not only on planet Earth but in general on any planet or satellite where conditions make the functioning of nanozymes possible.
In this model we start from a relatively original assumption about life and its concept:
..LIFE is an emergent property of matter. Given the three main components (pressure, temperature, solvent), the key is catalysts. Life in terms of organized assembly of functions..
Nanozymes fit precisely into this model.
They could represent the starter of all life forms in the Universe.
The path that will be outlined will obviously have to be subjected to an in-depth bibliographic and laboratory analysis.
Analysis which should also be carried out at the same time during space explorations of comets, asteroids, satellites, planets, both with and without organic or aqueous solvents in a stably liquid form.
The path model could have been the following:
--Primordial nanozymes, formed only by simple catalytic atomic aggregates, plausibly particularly widespread and active in areas affected by volcanic activity.
--Selective pressure based on the stability of the nanozymes and their catalysis speed.
--Second generation nanozymes, originating from complexes with organic molecules (amino acid residues and/or nitrogenous bases).
--The nitrogenous or nucleo- bases of this first phase were almost certainly not based on ribose but on other structural molecules that were much more stable in the primordial chemical-physical-enzymatic environment of the nanozymes: Threose-NA; Glycol-NA; Peptide-NA.
--Additional selective pressures on stability & speed of catalysis of these Second generation nanozymes.
--Emergence of autocatalytic properties in this new generation of organo-complex Nanozymes.
--Very rapid diffusion of third generation autocatalytic nanozymes, with high efficiency and (auto-) catalysis speed.
--Stably self-replicating fourth generation nanozymes through strong expansion of the non-catalytic component (amino acids and/or nitrogenous bases).
--Very rapid diffusion of variants of self-replicating (IV Gen.) nanozymes with strong stabilization, protection, isolation and efficiency of the catalytic core and notable expansion of the organic component.
--Emergence of clear autocatalytic units or clades, self-replicating and with well-traceable lines of descent, among the immense population of nanozymes; population now in strong competition for the substrate; fifth generation nanozymes with clear differentiation between the functional enzymatic part of the active site and the organic part surrounding the active site.
--Sixth generation nanozymes where the active site is surrounded by a complex structure of amino acids linked together but also linked to nitrogenous bases based on Threose, Glycol, Peptides,..; origin of the primordial structure of the genetic code with correspondence between amino acid and groups of nitrogenous bases.
This sixth generation of nanozymes is the one that will give rise to the future structure of the genetic code.
The nanozymes, through chemical selection processes, have undergone a significant stabilization and enhancement of the catalytic functions, leading to the formation of a proto-enzymatic primordial active site, with a clear structural and functional separation.
This proto-enzymatic population very quickly gave rise to chemical clades where they themselves were the product (auto-catalysis).
The next step was constant and conservative full self-replication; self-replication obtained with an even more marked separation, dimensional, structural, functional, between the proto-enzymatic primordial active site and the surrounding structure, made up of amino acids linked to each other and in turn linked to nitrogenous bases.
The last step may have been the close, almost univocal link between amino acids in sequence (polypeptide) and mini-aggregates of nitrogenous bases (2, 3, n units), forming the structural-functional basis of the triplet genetic code.
From this point on, the prebiotic evolution of nanozymes becomes indistinguishable from the biotic one, and will plausibly proceed faster and faster on the basis of fusion of functions, strengthening of functions, size, complexity and precision of self-replication, and symbiosis with other complex organic structures but prebiotic (ex.: bi-layer of phospholipids,..).
This evolutionary model of the origin of life starting from Nanozyme nuclei can very well also include the thesis ""Jupiter's Great Red Spot hides an exobiological nature??""
.
===================================
Classification of Nanozymes
Nanozymes have been classified in two functional families:
I - Oxidoreductase (oxidase, peroxidase, catalase, superoxide dismutase, and nitrate reductase).
II - Hydrolase (nuclease, esterase, phosphatase, protease, and silicate).
Nanozymes have been classified in 3 material from which they are made:
A - Metal-based nanozymes (nanoparticles of Au, Ag, Pt, Pd,..).
B - Metal-oxide or sulfide-based nanozymes, based on Fe, V, Ru,.. (V2O5, RuO2, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, CuO, NiTe, CoFe, BiFeO3, FeS, Co3O4, CdS, ZnO–Co3O4−v).
C - Carbon-based nanozymes (carbon nanotubes; graphene oxide; carbon dots; carbon nitride dots).
Moreover there are also a lot of organis-matal nanozymes (Cu with cysteine-histidine).
The nanozymes catalytic activity is influenced mainly by the morphology.

⚪️⚪️ITA-TEXT⚪️⚪️ Il quesito (ipotesi) proposto da questa Open RG Question è il seguente: i Nanozymes sono stati il costituente chimico di base che ha dato il via alla origine della vita??
Ipotesi
I nanozymes mostrano elementari funzioni enzimatiche di base del tutto analoghe a quelle dei sistemi biologici ma con ridotte performances nella produzione dei prodotti e nella stabilità.
Inoltre sono fortemente dipendenti dalle condizioni esterne chimico-fisiche in quanto sono realmente nudi e non protetti da coperture protettive fisiche e/o da isolanti chimici.
Però proprio per queste caratteristiche potrebbero rappresentare degli ottimi candidati per la realizzazione di strutture complesse auto-catalitiche e/o auto-replicanti ma pre-biologiche.
Pre-biologiche non solo sul pianeta Terra ma in generale su qualunque pianeta o satellite dove le condizioni rendono possibile il funzionamento dei nanozymes.
In questo modello si parte da un assunto relativamente originale sulla vita e sul suo concetto:
..La VITA è una proprietà emergente della materia. Date le tre componenti principali (pressione, temperatura, solvente), la chiave è rappresentata dai catalizzatori. Vita in termini di assemblaggio organizzato di funzioni..
I nanozymes si inseriscono proprio in questo modello.
Essi potrebbero rappresentare lo starter di ogni forma di Vita nell'Universo.
Il percorso che verrà delineato dovrà ovviamente essere sottoposto ad una profonda analisi sia bibliografica sia laboratoriale.
Analisi che dovrebbe contestualmente essere condotta anche durante le esplorazioni spaziali di comete, asteroidi, satelliti, pianeti, sia con sia senza solventi organici o acquosi in forma stabilmente liquida.
Il modello-percorso potrebbe essere stato il seguente:
--Nanozymes primordiali, formati solo da semplici aggregati atomici catalitici, plausibilmente particolarmente diffusi ed attivi nelle zone vulcaniche eruttive.
--Pressione selettiva basata sulla stabilità dei nanozymes e sulla loro velocità di catalisi.
--Nanozymes di seconda generazione, originati da complessi con molecole organiche (residui amminoacidici e/o basi azotate).
--Le basi azotate di questa prima fase quasi certamente non erano basate sul ribosio bensì su altre molecole strutturali ben più stabili nell'ambiente chimico-fisico-enzimatico primordiale dei nanozymes: Threose-NA; Glycol-NA; Peptide-NA.
--Ulteriori pressioni selettive su stabilità & velocità di catalisi.
--Emersione di proprietà autocatalitiche in questa nuova generazione di Nanozymes organo-complessi.
--Rapidissima diffusione di nanozymes autocatalitici di terza generazione, ad alta efficienza e velocità di catalisi.
--Nanozymes stabilmente auto-replicanti di quarta generazione mediante il forte ampliamento della componente non-catalitica (amminoacidi e/o basi azotate).
--Rapidissima diffusione di varianti di nanozymes auto-replicanti con forte stabilizzazione, protezione, isolamento ed efficientamento del nucleo catalitico e notevole ampliamento della componente organica.
--Emersione di chiare unità o cladi autocatalitici, auto-replicanti e con linee di discendenza ben tracciabili, tra l'immensa popolazione di nanozymes; popolazione ora in forte competizione per il substrato; nanozymes di quinta generazione con chiara differenziazione tra la parte funzionale enzimatica del sito attivo e la parte organica contornante il sito attivo.
--Nanozymes di sesta generazione dove il sito attivo è contornato da una complessa struttura di aminoacidi legati tra essi ma legati anche a basi azotate basate sul Threose, Glycol, Peptides,..; origine del primordiale assetto del codice genetico con corrispondenza tra aminoacido e gruppi di basi azotate.
Questa sesta generazione di nanozymes è quella che darà origine al futuro assetto del codice genetico.
I nanozymes mediante processi di selezione chimica, hanno subito una rilevante stabilizzazione e potenziamento delle funzioni catalitiche portando alla formazione di un sito attivo primordiale proto-enzimatico, con una netta separazione strutturale e funzionale.
Questa popolazione proto-enzimatica molto rapidamente ha dato luogo a dei cladi chimici ove il prodotto erano essi stessi (auto-catalisi).
Il passo successivo è stata la piena auto-replicazione costante e conservativa; auto-replicazione ottenuta con una ancor più marcata separazione, dimensionale, strutturale, funzionale, tra sito attivo primordiale proto-enzimatico e struttura di contorno, costituita da aminoacidi legati tra essi e a loro volta legati a basi azotate.
L'ultimo step potrebbe essere stato lo stretto legame quasi univoco tra aminoacidi in sequenza (polipeptidica) e mini-aggregati di basi azotate (2, 3, n unità), formando la base struttural-funzionale del codice genetico a triplette.
Da questo punto in poi l'evoluzione prebiotica dei nanozymes diventa indistinguibile da quella biotica e plausibilmente procederà sempre più veloce sulla base di fusione di funzioni, rafforzamento di funzioni, dimensioni, complessità e precisione di auto-replicazione e di simbiosi con altre strutture organiche complesse ma prebiotiche (bi-layer di fosfolipidi,..).
Questo modello evolutivo della origine della vita a partire da nuclei nanozymici può includere molto bene anche la tesi ""Jupiter's Great Red Spot hides an exobiological nature??"" https://www.researchgate.net/post/Jupiters_Great_Red_Spot_hides_an_exobiological_nature

🍥🍥Evidence of dark oxygen production at the abyssal seafloor
Nature Geoscience (2024). DOI:10.1038/s41561-024-01480-8🍥🍥
Abstract
Deep-seafloor organisms consume oxygen, which can be measured by in situ benthic chamber experiments. Here we report such experiments at the polymetallic nodule-covered abyssal seafloor in the Pacific Ocean in which oxygen increased over two days to more than three times the background concentration, which from ex situ incubations we attribute to the polymetallic nodules. Given high voltage potentials (up to 0.95 V) on nodule surfaces, we hypothesize that seawater electrolysis may contribute to this dark oxygen production.

Answer
Here ist a method I have been using since 2012 with high school students of physics. This method was, for example, praised by zoologist Richard Dawkins in memory of one of his teachers at University.
Let your students write short essays (200 to 400 words is fine) on a narrowly defined topics. Give them a few technical terms you expect them to use. Ask them to produce arguments for and against certain propositions. This will encourage them to think about more fundamental principles. For example: "Give evidence for and against group selection. Draw a personal conclusion".
It usually takes me about 5 to 10 minutes to read each essay. I do not fully correct it but only indicate where students lack depth or make false statements, aksing them to correct them.
After a few such tasks, I definitely observe a strong increase in the students' proficiency to produce meaningful and coherent texts. This is definetely one step beyond mere rote learning. It's worth a try.

I have six ecosystems in two substrate categories (Triplicates essentially). I have determined shannon wiener index values for each ecosystem and also for the two categories separately. I have done this for two separate sets of data that were sampled in two separate years. Is it possible to statistically compare the development of the biodiversity between each of the categories i.e., the development of biodiveristy in ecosystem 1 between the two years, using the shannon wiener values somehow? Are there any other tests that could work? I am aware of the hutcheson t test however, some of my data is not normally distributed.
I would really appreciate some help!
Relevant answer
Answer
To statistically compare Shannon-Wiener index values between two years:
  1. Calculate Shannon-Wiener Index: Compute the Shannon-Wiener index separately for each year using appropriate ecological data.
  2. Normality Check: Ensure that the index values follow a normal distribution, typically assessed using statistical tests like the Shapiro-Wilk test or visual inspection (e.g., histograms).
  3. Choose a Test: Use a paired t-test if the data for both years are paired (i.e., measurements from the same sites or samples) and normally distributed. Alternatively, use a Wilcoxon signed-rank test if the data are not normally distributed or if the assumptions for the t-test are not met.
  4. Perform the Test: Conduct the chosen statistical test to compare the mean or median Shannon-Wiener index values between the two years.
  5. Interpret the Results: Evaluate the test statistic and p-value to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in the Shannon-Wiener index values between the two years. Adjust for multiple comparisons if necessary.
By following these steps, you can effectively compare Shannon-Wiener index values between two different years in a statistically rigorous manner.

Relevant answer
Answer
To statistically compare Shannon index values (a measure of diversity) between two years, you can use several methods depending on the data's nature and distribution. Here's a step-by-step guide:
1. Prepare Your Data
Ensure you have the Shannon index values for the two years. Your data might look something like this:
Year Shannon_Index
2022 2.3
2022 2.5
2022 2.1
2023 2.7
2023 2.8
2023 2.6
2. Check Normality
Determine if the Shannon index values follow a normal distribution. This can be done using tests such as the Shapiro-Wilk test.
3. Choose a Statistical Test
Based on the normality of the data, choose an appropriate test:
If data is normally distributed:
Use an independent t-test if the variances between the groups are equal (you can check for this using Levene's test).
Use Welch's t-test if the variances are not equal.
If data is not normally distributed:
Use a non-parametric test such as the Mann-Whitney U test (also known as the Wilcoxon rank-sum test).
4. Perform the Test

These three areas are quite different, although they can touch on related ideas in some ways. Here's a breakdown:
  • Information theory: This is a branch of applied mathematics that focuses on quantifying, storing, and transmitting information. It uses concepts from probability and statistics to analyze how efficiently information can be communicated through channels with noise or limitations.
  • Concrete concepts: This refers to ideas that are well-defined, specific, and easy to grasp. They are not abstract or theoretical. Examples include the concept of a chair, the number 5, or the color red.
  • Critical rationalism: This is a philosophical approach to knowledge acquisition. It emphasizes the importance of testing and criticizing ideas to see if they hold up under scrutiny. It rejects the notion of absolute certainty and suggests that knowledge is always provisional, open to revision based on new evidence.
There might be some connections:
  • Information theory and concrete concepts: Information theory can be used to analyze how efficiently concrete concepts are communicated. For example, a simple concept like "red" might require fewer bits to transmit than a more complex idea.
  • Critical rationalism and information theory: Critical rationalism can be used to evaluate the quality of information itself. If information is incomplete, contradictory, or not well-sourced, then a critical rationalist approach would be to question its validity.
Overall, information theory is a mathematical framework, concrete concepts are specific ideas, and critical rationalism is a way of approaching knowledge. They are all valuable tools in different areas.

La fractalidad en cuerpos y entornos complejos
Para abordar la desistematización y fractalidad como hipótesis al pensamiento complejo. Es relevante preguntarse: ¿Si no es un sistema, es un no sistema? Entonces, es incoherente reducir un entornos complejos a modelos de sistemas. Por lo tanto, es viable proponer que entornos complejos contienen o cuerpos complejos están compuestos de cuerpos complejos, los que a su vez podrían estar conteniendo a grupos complejos, entre los grupos diversos de tales cuerpos, encontramos a los sistemas. Lo cual, refleja el modelo de un fractal. Lo anterior basandonos en el modelo del cuerpo humano.
Cuerpos y entornos describen con mayor precisión al sistema complejo. Y concuerdan mejor con la teoría de la complejidad.
Los cuerpos y entornos complejos son fundamentales para comprender la teoría de la complejidad. Esta teoría se centra en entender los entornos que presentan interconexiones, comportamientos no lineales, autoorganización y emergencia de propiedades a partir de la interacción entre múltiples componentes o cuerpos. La aplicación de la teoría de la complejidad nos permite abordar fenómenos del mundo real de manera más precisa y completa, debido a que reconoce la naturaleza interconectada y dinámica de los sistemas complejos.
La fractalidad es una característica fascinante de los entornos complejos. Los fractales son patrones geométricos que se repiten a diferentes escalas, lo que los hace muy interesantes en campos como las matemáticas, la física, la biología y el arte.
La fractalidad se relaciona con cuerpos complejos de diversas maneras. Por ejemplo, en la naturaleza encontramos estructuras fractales en formas como los copos de nieve, las costas marítimas, las montañas, e incluso en la distribución de los árboles en un bosque. En el cuerpo humano, ciertas estructuras biológicas exhiben patrones fractales, como los pulmones y los sistemas vasculares. Además, en la ciencia de materiales, la fractalidad a menudo se utiliza para describir superficies rugosas y porosas. Esta conexión con los cuerpos complejos es un ejemplo de cómo la fractalidad es una herramienta útil para comprender y modelar fenómenos en el mundo real.
Definitivamente los procesos estocásticos y la fractalidad son características fundamentales de los entornos y cuerpos complejos. Los procesos estocásticos, que involucran elementos aleatorios o probabilísticos, son comunes en sistemas complejos, ya que reflejan la incertidumbre y la variabilidad presentes en muchos fenómenos naturales y sociales. Por otro lado, la presencia de patrones fractales en entornos y cuerpos complejos resalta la auto-similitud a diferentes escalas y la naturaleza irregular de muchos entornos del mundo real. Estas características proporcionan herramientas valiosas para modelar y comprender la complejidad inherente a una amplia gama de fenómenos, desde la distribución de poblaciones hasta la dinámica del clima.

The vastness or sustainability of a belief system doesn't necessarily indicate its plausibility. Plausibility depends on evidence, logical coherence, and consistency with observable phenomena, rather than the popularity or longevity of a belief. While a belief system's widespread acceptance or enduring nature may influence perceptions, plausibility is determined by its ability to withstand critical scrutiny and align with empirical reality.

Currently, in Japan, physics, chemistry, biology, and geology are taught independently in science education context. So I would like to know, has any country developed a curriculum that emphasizes the relationship or overlaps between these four fields? I know that similar movement is occurring under the name of "STEM integration." But how about the case of physics, chemistry, biology, and geology? (Or I should say "PCBG integration") I would appreciate it if you could let me know anything.

Well, thanks for sharing a Wonderful Research Question for Future Research about School Education, which deals with questions about curriculum to integrate physics, chemistry, biology, and geology (PCBG integration) as well.
While, it seems that all of it also refers to the Proposed Education of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Math with Cymatics in High Schools with Hypothesis and Research of Philselfology as discussed in the following Research Proposal:
Now, it simply seems to raise a question of "Is it possible to have a Single or Common Subject of Education with Research for Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Math with Cymatics in High Schools?", and thus it is requested here as a question, where Name of Philselfology is also proposed for all of it as a Single, Common and Unified Subject as well.
It is also discussed more here as well:

Most of the researchers use to teach at university. In some careers, professionals who exert their profession without doing research share teaching spaces. When I was a chemistry student, 100% of my teachers were researchers ranging from PhD candidates to experts in their respective fields. While it may seem logical for researchers to be the best candidates to teach in fields such as chemistry or biology, what about healthcare-related fields like medicine, pharmacy, or biochemistry? Who is better suited to lead a class, a researcher or a professional, or both, each one in different subjects? We can distinguish between basic and clinical subjects. I am interested in hearing your thoughts on this matter.
Relevant answer
Answer
Being a proficient researcher doesn't necessarily equate to being a better professor. While research expertise can enhance teaching by bringing current knowledge and real-world applications into the classroom, effective teaching requires distinct skills such as communication, empathy, and the ability to engage students.
A good professor balances both research and teaching responsibilities, tailoring their approach to meet the needs of their students while contributing to their field through research. However, being a successful researcher doesn't guarantee effective teaching, as teaching requires its own set of abilities and dedication.

Within certain Hebrew texts, there are several instances suggesting the idea of reincarnation. The Messiah will not come until all souls have been reincarnated in physical bodies. Furthermore, it is said that a righteous person does not depart from the world until another righteous person like him is born. These suggest the rebirth or reincarnation of souls.
As a philosopher and scholar, I have examined various beliefs and traditions surrounding reincarnation. In my view, the concept of reincarnation is not a core principle in Judaism, and there is little evidence or scriptural basis to support it. Instead, I believe in the importance of leading a righteous life, fulfilling one's moral obligations, and striving for spiritual growth in this world. Ultimately, our focus should be on living a life of purpose and integrity, rather than speculating on what may happen in the afterlife.

A patient with desminopathy (mutation Thr341Pro DES in a heterozygous state) with the progression of the disease has a decrease in taste and smell, immunosuppression, and an increase in IgA in the blood.
Oddly enough, but all this is characteristic of infections, including viral ones. For example, it is known that if the hepatitis C virus is not treated, then death will occur in 20 years.
In the identified case of late onset desminopathy, muscle weakness manifests itself at the age of 30, and death occurs 20 years after the onset of the disease.
Could the desmin mutation in myofibrillar myopathy be caused by an infection?
Perhaps the infection contributes to the progression of desminopathy?

Answer
Dear Esteemed Colleague,
Greetings. I trust this message finds you deeply engaged in your research and seeking answers to complex questions within the realm of genetics and molecular pathology. Your inquiry regarding the potential role of infection in causing desmin mutations in myofibrillar myopathy is both intriguing and indicative of a keen scientific mind exploring the multifaceted nature of genetic disorders.
To address your question with the precision and clarity it deserves, it is crucial to first understand the nature of myofibrillar myopathies and the role of desmin within this context. Myofibrillar myopathies are a group of neuromuscular disorders characterized by the progressive weakening of muscles and the disintegration of muscle fibers at a cellular level. Desmin, a type of intermediate filament protein, plays a pivotal role in maintaining the structural integrity and function of muscle cells. Mutations in the DES gene, which encodes the desmin protein, are directly linked to certain forms of myofibrillar myopathy.
The genesis of these mutations, particularly those affecting the desmin protein, is primarily genetic, resulting from inherited or de novo mutations in the DES gene. These mutations lead to the production of an abnormal desmin protein, which disrupts the normal architecture of muscle cells, leading to the symptoms associated with myofibrillar myopathy.
Addressing the specific question of whether an infection could cause desmin mutations, it is essential to differentiate between the origins of genetic mutations and factors that may exacerbate the phenotype of a genetic disorder. Genetic mutations, including those affecting the desmin gene, arise from alterations in the DNA sequence. These alterations can be inherited from parents, occur spontaneously during DNA replication, or be induced by certain environmental factors, such as exposure to specific chemicals or radiation. Infections, while capable of causing a wide array of health issues, do not directly induce genetic mutations in the DNA sequence of the genes like DES. However, it is conceivable that certain infections could exacerbate the clinical manifestations of myofibrillar myopathy in individuals already predisposed or carrying a desmin mutation, by stressing the muscular system or triggering inflammatory responses that may further compromise muscle function.
In conclusion, while infections can have significant impacts on overall health and may interact in complex ways with genetic disorders, the mutations in the DES gene that cause myofibrillar myopathy are not directly caused by infections. The mutations are genetic in origin, and the relationship between infections and the severity or progression of myofibrillar myopathy would be more accurately viewed through the lens of infection exacerbating pre-existing conditions rather than causing the genetic mutation itself.
I hope this elucidation addresses your inquiry comprehensively. Should you have further questions or require additional clarification, please feel free to reach out.
Warm regards.

  1. The human genome is young: shared blocks of DNA are large and there has not been enough time to scramble them to randomness.
  2. The human population came from a single source: most blocks are shared among all world populations.
  3. The human genome is falling apart: deletions tend to NOT be shared among populations, but are unique to subpopulations (this is further evidence for the youth of the genome and that we came from a single source population in the recent past). Source: Genetics-primal-couple (creation.com)

Liberalism is a highly hegemonic and maybe all encompassing force that stems from God as humans would NOT have the ability to reason to implement social justice WITHOUT The Holy Trinity.
Relevant answer
Answer
HOT TAKE ANSWER:
A very tempting statement to make, since neoliberalism could be thereby reduced to a capitalist heresy. Liberalism is all about public goods and the rule of law. Neoliberalism is all about privatizing public goods (aka the commons) and legal institutions; and then eliminating legal powers that protect public interest, through capital's regulatory capture.
To declare that liberalism is divine means that neoliberalism 's regulatory capture and degradation of the rule of law are both heretical. Lovely!
But I think that's a bit too much wishful thinking, for a political philosophy that promotes human reason as the foundation of freedom.
The basic role of human reason is why, for example, the Introduction to John Stuart Mill's On Liberty is about the imminent ability of colonized people to decolonize and live by self-rule, and so the first chapter about how to ensure liberty is through a freedom of thought and expression. Liberalism means that people accomplish their self-governance (or assent to be governed) through dialogue and education. It is not until the final chapter of Mill's little book that finally explains the "harm principle" for guiding the legitimate use of legal power; the limits of personal freedoms.
If liberalism was a form of freedom that emanated from the Holy Trinity, then liberalism wouldn't be about the testing of ideas, but rather about divine revelation and hierarchy. Something like Mill's "harm principle" could be articulated by scripture or revelation or even dogma. Something like it, but not the same thing.
I think anyone who wants to follow your aphorism will be vexed to find that liberalism is based on (essays concerning*) human understanding.
But what a relief if neoliberalism is a heresy! Neoliberalism can't abide freedom of thought and expression, because the marketplace of ideas is axiomatically the "public" part of the rule of law. Thought and expression can't be free when regulatory capture gets around to capturing the means of talking to each other.
HOWEVER, your aphorism is probably valid from the point of view of a person of faith who wants to use a faith-based institution (like a mosque, a convent, a hermitage) as part of civil society. From inside that institution, looking outward at the local neighbourhood or at the international order, it makes sense.
___
*I am making a reference to Kant because liberalism, as a rights-based political philosophy, can be easily divided into two general theories: dignitarian and utilitarian foundations for human rights and the legitimate use of power.
