transhumanism

Transhumanism is an international and intellectual movement that aims to transform the human condition by developing and creating widely available sophisticated technologies to greatly enhance human intellectual, physical, and psychological capacities.

String Inverter Innovations Revolutionize Solar Energy Harvesting
String inverters play a pivotal role in solar energy systems by efficiently converting the direct current (DC) generated by interconnected solar panels into usable alternating current (AC). Unlike microinverters, which operate on a per-panel basis, string inverters are strategically placed to manage multiple solar panels connected in series, forming a string. This configuration enhances cost-effectiveness in larger installations while optimizing overall energy production. A distinctive feature lies in their centralized monitoring capabilities, providing real-time insights into the performance of the entire solar array. This allows for quick issue detection and resolution, ensuring maximum efficiency. With ongoing technological advancements focusing on enhancing efficiency, reliability, and integration with smart grid solutions, string inverters continue to be a reliable and scalable choice for residential and commercial solar installations globally.

The trade-off between Toxic Masculinity and Modern Feminism
Introduction The resiliency and cognitive tenacity of humans, who are complex beings, enable them to lay the framework for civilizations that bind people together in a feeling of community. Humans are creatures known for their interactions with society. A society lays the breeding ground for the coexistence of multiple dualities to transcend within each other and live in harmony.

Killing Technology. Content Warning.
1. Cyberpunk "Cyberpunk" is a form of fiction given birth by the collision between societal decay and technological ascendancy. It was popular in the 1980s but still influences modern movies, television shows, comic books, and graphic novels, as well as music to a great degree. Films such as The Matrix, Blade Runner, Robocop, Akira, and newer offerings such as Cyberpunk 2077 have kept the genre alive. Its roots go back to the novel Neuromancer by William Gibson, the French comic art of Moebius as exemplified in Metal Hurlant (known in America as "Heavy Metal"), and the "New Wave of Science Fiction" pioneered by writers such as J.G. Ballard and Philip K. Dick. Its aesthetic is seedy and post-modern, its world populated by hardboiled cynics, cutthroats, hackers, corporate criminals, and brutal, militarized police. And, of course, the occasional terrorist (er, perhaps "freedom fighter"?) working to bring down the oppressive, dehumanizing system wherein cyberspace (as defined by William Gibson) has become the Alcatraz of the soul.

Bowie is a remarkably uncommon lobster that is half blue and half orange, half male and half female.
Bowie may be the rarest lobster in the world if not the North Atlantic. This unique specimen is divided exactly in half, with a typical orange color on the right side and a vivid blue color on the left. Furthermore, it is a prime example of a bilateral gynandromorph, with a perfect midline split that makes it half-male and half-female.

Record #03: Distance // Compendium of Humanity's End
You are mostly empty space. Oh, you may feel like you are a semi-solid, if not squishy object, but that could not be further from the truth. If you start to zoom in, you’ll see that you are made of trillions of tiny cells. But those cells are just gooey packages for various tiny organelles and even your DNA. DNA, though, is made up of long, complex sugars. Those sugars themselves actually consist of just five elements—hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorous—in various configurations.

IS THE 1555 LES PROPHETES BOOK STILL ALIVE?
Let's select Just a few that might be of relevance in our current age. The sixteenth-century Mars mission. Michelle de Nostradamus was a French astrologer who became well-known during his time because, you guessed it, many of his predictions came true. Although it's still unclear if his predictions from long ago were accurate or the result of pure coincidence, people at the time accepted him and he became well-known for them until the day of his death. Nostradamus also left behind a book called Les Prophetes in which he made 942 predictions, many of which came true. For example, he foresaw both the moon landing mission of Apollo 11 and the ruthless reign of Adolf Hitler and even the COVID-19 pandemic. All these he talked about in the book which he published in 1555.
