WILL THE BILL GATES CLIMATE CHANGE STRATEGY WORK?
Bill Gates and a group of billionaires formed the Breakthrough Energy Coalition and pledged to spend billions on cleantech R&D in order to find the technological breakthroughs they say are needed to decarbonize the economy. There’s nothing wrong with R&D spending, but a number of critics argue that Gates’ money would be much better spent on funding and scaling existing renewable technology. In a recent report, Goldman Sachs concluded that the most effective midterm solution for lowering carbon emissions—and making money—is backing existing technologies that are ready to scale. In fact, the banks believe that the majority of investor dollars should go only to four technologies: solar photovoltaics, onshore wind, LED lighting, and electric cars. Who’s right?

Modern technology can be great but sometimes the cables that come with it are a bit of a pain!
Taken for a challenge on the theme "Technology"
One of the most creative folks I know! Charlie of Doink Design and I go way back to before the Time War.

things will never be the same again since technology took over our lives. it has practically entered almost every aspect of everything we do. imagine a friend of mine recently bought a tennis racquet that can sense and feed information about a player's style of hitting the ball and playing the game. individually and subjectively, depending on our attitude towards technology, only time will tell whether we are happier with it. obviously one thing is certain, these kids are!

I downloaded a white noise app to help soothe baby, and accidentally discovered that it included a baby rattle app too. She loved the bouncing balls and rattle sounds, but kept trying to chew on my brand new HTC smartphone :)
Two friends hanging out together on a park bench conversing. One of them, a young woman in her 20s, is sitting in a wheelchair. She was born with spina bifida. A mid adult Hispanic woman is sitting on the bench beside her. They are smiling and looking at each other.
Aayooh
I'm tired of using technology,
Why don't you sit down on top of me
Aayooh
I'm tired of using technology
I need you right in front-- of me

Punching colors and fixing problems with bleeding-edge technology, and saving photos that were previously unusable.

The second illustration from “Faces of the unreal II - Earth” series.
mechanical face, rusty and cold that controls us and dominates, while we tolerate it in the current era.
I have a little bit of a love and hate relationship with technology. On the one side I am so thankful what is possible today. We can be in contact with my family overseas in ways that weren't possible years ago. Then again technology is everywhere, it can be addicting and suck the life out of you. Im happy I can teach them the responsibilities that come with all of it.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb was challenged to define a Black Swan, while standing on one foot.
But today: "My outrage is aimed at the scientist-charlatan putting society at risk using statistical methods. This is similar to iatrogenics, the study of the doctor putting the patient at risk."
The financial markets today provided a timely context for the release of his new essay –
A Map of the Limits of Statistics:
"The banking system, betting against rare events, just lost over 1 Trillion dollars (so far) on a single error, more than was ever earned in the history of banking".
The Domains on screen are very different... Some notes I took while reading his book:
• Mediocristan
Collective, routine, obvious
Services – paid by the hour
gravity – body shapes, mountains
Bell curve, Poisson, Gaussian
Ignore outliers
Large numbers
Regression to mean
Black-Scholes
• Extremistan
Singular, accidental, unseen
Book sales, websites, wealth, population of cities, languages, size of companies, financial markets
Pareto Optimal, 80/20 -> 50/1
Power laws, scale free, preferential attachment
Economics – winner take all, network effects
Technology – network effects, Moore’s Law, accelerating change

Something isn' working and the boys are baffled.
"Have you tried switching it off and on again?" suggests TK935, helpfully.
Just as well TK127's reply was muffled under the console.
www.SchoolTechnology.org Elementary student getting ready to do a podcast gives the "thumbs up" as the sound tech to let the host know the show is ready to start.
State of the art technology that our 3G army now uses. Versatile and remote controlled. Able to fire (i believe it utilises 5.56mm rounds) via user's control and climb staircases.

when my parents were kids, television was "cool technology", today it is an appliance.
computers are "cool technology" to me but merely appliances to my kids.
