Does Not Stabilize , Will Only Make Us Stronger
Many places in the world are too rugged or enclosed for vehicles to access. Even today, material transport to such areas is limited to manual labor and beasts of burden. Modern advancements in wearable robotics may make those methods obsolete. Lower extremity exoskeletons seek to supplement the intelligence and sensory systems of a human with the significant strength and endurance of a pair of ...
متن کاملStress-response hormesis and aging: "that which does not kill us makes us stronger".
Hormesis refers to the beneficial effects of a treatment that at a higher intensity is harmful. In one form of hormesis, sublethal exposure to stressors induces a response that results in stress resistance. The principle of stress-response hormesis is increasingly finding application in studies of aging, where hormetic increases in life span have been seen in several animal models.
متن کاملActions That Make Us Know
The knowability paradox is usually formulated as a problem about the static propositions which express the knowledge that we can achieve in principle. In this paper, I propose to put these issues in a more ’dynamic’ light, by shifting the emphasis to the epistemic actions that produce knowledge, or sometimes even ignorance. The very notion of ’knowability’ seems mainly an existentially quantifi...
متن کاملSimple Heuristics That Make Us Smart
To survive in a world where knowledge is limited, time is pressing, and deep thought is often an unattainable luxury, decision-makers must use bounded rationality. In this precis of Simple heuristics that make us smart, we explore fast and frugal heuristics—simple rules for making decisions with realistic mental resources. These heuristics enable smart choices to be made quickly and with a mini...
متن کاملHomes That Make Us Smart 1 Alex
In this article we consider what it should mean to build ‘smartness’ or ‘intelligence’ into the home. We introduce an argument suggesting that it is people who imbue their homes with intelligence by continually weaving together things in their physical worlds with their everyday routines and distinct social arrangements. To develop this argument we draw on four ongoing projects concerned with d...
