The rise of the robot in the 21st century can be directly related with the rise of drone technologies perfected by the United States Military. Drones or UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicle) have unexpectedly become popular in the mainstream media mostly due to conspiracy theories and Kentucky senator Rand Paul’s epic13 hour filibuster before congress. Senator Paul schooled the congressional committee on how drones are currently being used to kill innocent civilians in Pakistan and Afghanistan and how the use of drones over American skies could potentially be used from everything to unwarranted spying to capturing and killing terrorist and criminals. Drones for spying and warfare can come as small as mosquitos, and these drones can do everything from record conversations to emitting deadly bio-chemical weapons. The uses of drones have grown so much that they comprise over 30% of all US Military aircraft. But the real dangers of drones are the warning signs they signal for the eventual steps towards the A.I. becoming aware.    Continue reading “SKYNET is Real”

Is Rand Paul trying to change his Israel spots? Perhaps. In recent weeks, despite the fact that Paul has long positioned himself as a skeptic of the US-Israel alliance and opposes neoconservative-style interventionism abroad, he has been making at least a feint in the direction of Israel, various hardliners, and—as we learned this week from a funny but revealing piece in The New York Times—Rupert Murdoch, too.    Continue reading “What’s Behind Rand Paul’s Israel Feint?”

Over 97.5 percent of the earth’s water contains salt, and desalination is the process of removing salt from water. More than 16 billion gallons of desalinated water are produced daily, with much of it designated for drinking water in the Persian Gulf countries. It is a challenge for engineers worldwide to find a desalination process that is cheap enough to bring desalinated water to the poor and remote regions of the earth.    Continue reading “How to Desalinate Water”

In the northern Arizona city of Williams, restaurant patrons don’t automatically get a glass of water anymore. Residents caught watering lawns or washing cars with potable water can be fined.

Officials in the community about 60 miles from the Grand Canyon’s South Rim have clamped down on water use and declared a crisis amid a drought that is quickly drying up nearby reservoirs and forcing the city to pump its only two wells to capacity.   Continue reading “Arizona town near Grand Canyon imposes severe water restrictions amid drought”
