Has nobody seen #Oppenheimer? The #Apollo mission?
Has no one seen, with century old technology, what we accomplished against diseases like TB, #polio, #malaria, #MMR?
What we lack is courage, imagination, and daring.
Fuck these retrogrades. Fuck them. Fuck their input or opinions.

Habe jetzt #Oppenheimer gesehen und fand es visuell opulent und toll geschauspielert, aber mich störte die mangelnde Nachforschung / Offenlegung von Oppenheimers eigener Motivation bei dem Ganzen.
Der Film erweckt den Eindruck, er sei schlafwandlerisch, von äußeren Mächten getrieben und ohne eigene Motivation (in- oder extrinsisch) in die Sache 'reingeraten', die er letztendlich selbst *gemacht* hat.
Tja.

Der mit 7 Oscars ausgezeichnete Film #Oppenheimer zieht sich.
In dem Kino-Blockbuster #Oppenheimer habt ihr seinen Namen vielleicht gehört: Klaus Fuchs. Der deutsch-britische Kernphysiker arbeitete maßgeblich mit an dem sogenannten Manhattan-Projekt zum Bau einer #Atombombe in den Vereinigten Staaten – und stellte sich später als sowjetischer Spion heraus.
Vor 75 Jahren, am1. März 1950, wurde er in Großbritannien wegen Spionage für die Sowjetunion verurteilt.

Worked on the first atomic bomb. When it detonated the heat of "Trinity" melted the sand and rocks at the test site creating a new man-made mineral - the radioactive Trinitite 
#Pioneering female #Chinese #American physicist Chien-Shiung Wu, who worked with Robert #Oppenheimer on the #ManhattanProject, was also the first to confirm #QuantumEntanglement – just 14 years after Albert #Einstein questioned the phenomenon. The largely forgotten achievement was included in a profile of Wu, one of the most influential experimental physicists of the 20th century, published in the December 2024 issue of Physics Today.
Wu is also believed to have been the only Chinese scientist involved in the Manhattan Project, the World War II initiative to develop an #AtomicBomb led by Oppenheimer, who affectionately referred to her as Jiejie, which means elder sister, the article said.
Wu’s experiment – detailed in a paper published in 1950 – was conducted before the #scientific community had fully grasped the significance of quantum entanglement, the article noted.

@spla podria dedicar-se a quelcom més beneficiós o interessant per la #societat que els jocs de taula; clar que ser #Einstein, obrir la porta de la fusió nuclear i trobar-te convertit, en paraules d'#Oppenheimer, en el destructor de móns, no deu ser agradable.

Excellent piece by philosopher Heather Douglas on the perils of getting carried away by technical sweetness and the interesting parallels between Oppenheimer and Frankenstein.
The MIT Press Reader · The Bitter Aftertaste of “Technical Sweetness”Echoing Frankenstein’s story, the creation of the atomic bomb illustrates how scientific zeal can blind researchers to foreseeable dangers.
Der Joseph‐Süß‐Oppenheimer-Platz in der Innenstadt von #Stuttgart ist wieder für die Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. Er ist in den vergangenen Monaten umfassend saniert und neugestaltet worden.
Die Neugestaltung des Platzes erfolgte in Zusammenarbeit mit der Stiftung Geißstraße 7. Es wurde ein Ort geschaffen, der an Joseph Süß #Oppenheimer erinnert und Möglichkeiten zum Verweilen bietet.

ho visto come la Gen Z ha risposto al film #Oppenheimer, ho visto quanto li ha coivolti. NON me l'aspettavo. E non c'è stato nessun media che ha intercettato questo grande interesse per parlare con loro della Gen Z e delle generazioni più giovani
L'afany del #coneixement està impulsat per l'ego i la supèrbia, és per això que el #cristianisme ha sigut obscurantista.
En voler protegir l'esperit del #pecat de la #supèrbia, va caure en el #fonamentalisme de negar el coneixement.
El coneixement, la comprensió del que ens envolta és beneficiós, ens mena a la #saviesa, però impulsat per la supèrbia pot crear monstres. Que li preguntin, si no, a #Oppenheimer.
El bibliotecari de "El nom de la rosa" encertava en l'esperit i errava la comprensió.

@SocraticEthics That's because there are #Russian spies *everywhere* in the #American government. Even within it's most *secure* institutions!
Everyone who saw the movie #Oppenheimer knows that.
And anyone who has followed the #USpol history of #TulsiGabbard knows that they're in #Congress as well!
I did not expect a little MIME type to take me to what is sometimes called "birthplace of the atomic bomb", nor did I expect to learn that we’re still making weapons there. https://evanhahn.com/mime-types-and-atom-bombs/

I wonder in the decades to come, if #GeoffreyHinton will be compared to #Oppenheimer
