Is there a project to bring back the NewtonOS to any kind of smartphone? It’s written entirely in C++, so it shouldn’t be impossible. My Newton is getting old lately.

¿Sabías que las cosas son extremadamente flojas por naturaleza?
Existe una regla invisible en el universo que dicta que todos los objetos sufren de una pereza total. Antes de que Newton estipulara La Ley de inercia, en el siglo XVII, el científico Galileo Galilei descubrió que si lanzas una canica por una pista infinitamente larga y sin ningún tipo de rascado o aire que la frene, la canica viajará en línea recta para siempre sin detenerse jamás. A este fenómeno se le conoce como la ley de inercia. Significa que los objetos cambian su estado solo si algo los obliga. Si estás sentado en un sillón, te quedarás ahí pegado hasta que tus músculos decidan moverte. De la misma forma, si vas en una bicicleta a 80 kilómetros por hora y esto frena de golpe, tu cuerpo intentará seguir viajando hacia adelante a esos mismos 80 kilómetros por hora. No es que la bicicleta te empuje, es tu propia inercia que se niega a cambiar de velocidad. En el espacio exterior, donde no hay aire que estorbe, si lanzas una manzana, esta viajará por millones de años a la misma velocidad hasta que choque con un planeta.

Apparently, when #Einstein was trying to reconcile #Newton’s and #Maxwell’s models of the universe, he happened to choose the speed of light as the universal constant, and built his universe from there. Seems kind of arbitrary. Dunno why he picked that. Don’t remember hearing about why he picked light speed over some other property. But then, what else was there, and how would our understanding of reality be different if something other than speed of light were the constant. #showerThoughts

On this day in 1992 the Apple Newton was released. While a commercial failure, the Newton platform set the bar for future designs. The most important advancement the Newton offered to the technology industry may have been the development of the ARM processor architecture. The ARM architecture has been the foundation of most of the world’s mobile devices since that time, including all versions of the Apple iPhone and iPad and now the M series processors for the Macintosh.

"In former times, I sat under an apple tree and waited that an apple hit my head to be inspired like Newton. Now I sit under the apple tree and just eat delicous apples."

@csilverman I was the Product Manager for the eMate in education in Australia. The colour was officially Translucent Dark Green and it was one of the first translucent designs by Jony Ive. I had a purchase order for 35,000 of them from New South Wales Department of Eduction when Steve Jobs cancelled the project. It was the first time I actually had a phone call from Steve when he told me he didn’t “give a f***” about the order as #newton was dead.

Since I'm in a #Newton frame of mind right now, I thought I'd share this eerily forward-looking Newton ad from Sonny Hung's Smithsonian-level collection of Apple stuff.
"Newton will help you get organized.
Newton can help you make phone calls.
Newton can help manage your schedule.Newton can help you plan your day.
Newton learns about you to help you more.Newton is here today.
Newton will be everywhere tomorrow."And it sort of is. In spirit, anyway.

Hype for the Future 218P: Roselawn, Indiana
Overview The Roselawn community within the State of Indiana is a notable community associated with Newton and Jasper Counties in the State of Indiana and is located near the State Road 10 exit of Interstate 65 and east of the State Road 55 corridor.

🧲❓ The gravitational constant “Big G” has been part of #physics since 1687, but after 17 modern measurements, scientists still can’t agree on its exact value.
At #NIST in #Maryland, physicist Stephan Schlamminger spent a decade trying – even resorting to a sealed-envelope #experiment to avoid subconscious bias. His team’s result slightly disagrees with the accepted value, keeping the #mystery alive.

A conversation.
“When experts disagree, usually the best thing to do is listen to what the majority of experts say. There’s no guarantee that they’re right, but they’re more likely right than wrong. And if the majority view is overturned, it’s almost guaranteed that this will be done by other experts in the field presenting evidence for the minority view, not by random kibitzers.”
“For the history buffs in here, while most scientific knowledge is advanced incrementally, the true breakthroughs are usually ridiculed by the reigning experts. That is why appeals to authority are the worst kind of logical fallacy for a scientist.”
“That’s the pop-history version of scientific progress. The actual #history of #science is very different. Kind of like the difference between ‘history buffs’ and historians.”
===
Yes, there are examples—a few—of genuine breakthroughs that were ridiculed by the scientific establishment of the day. I bet you know what they are, because everyone does. They laughed at #Semmelweis, they laughed at #Wegner, they laughed at Luis and Walter #Alvarez, they laughed at #Marshall and #Warren. These things happened.
But they did not laugh at #Galileo: indeed, they took his work with deadly seriousness. (And there really wasn’t any such thing as a “scientific establishment” at the time.) They did not laugh at #Newton, or #Watt, or #Darwin, or #Gibbs, or #Pasteur, or #Einstein, or #Curie, or #Heisenberg, or #Fisher, or #Watson and #Crick and poor unacknowledged #Franklin, or #Tharp and #Heezen, or #Ostrom and #Bakker, or #Hansen, or the vast majority of scientists whose work has fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe.
At least if by “they” you mean scientists working in relevant fields, who understood the questions at hand … not, in most cases, scientists from other fields, or those with no scientific experience at all. Nor the religious and political ideologues who muddy the waters by creating fake “controversies” to cast doubt on results they know are true, but cannot accept.
In some cases they disagreed, quite vociferously. There were debates that descended into shouting matches, professional disagreements turned into personal feuds, once-eminent researchers become sad cranks, ruined careers and shortened lives. Yes. These things happened too, and that’s a tragedy.
But most of the time, most researchers in the same fields as the revolutionaries said, “Oh, that makes sense!” Problems that had seemed insoluble suddenly became simple, or at least it was possible to see how there might be an elegant solution. Major discoveries spawned a host of medium-sized ones, each of which in turn spawned endless minor ones—and endless minor papers, academic bread and butter for when you can’t get steak and lobster. Everyone wins.
Those ideologues I mentioned above? They really, really want you to believe the narrative of ridicule. You might want to consider why.
