"Vlad can always take you by surprise; often amazing us with his wide spectrum of not just artistic manifestations - resembling the many faced Janus. That's how it was back in time when there was only one Bulgarian National Radio in our fatherland. Those years Vlad was frantically followed by an audience of hundreds of thousands. His night shows were something anticipated and appreciated. This continued for years. In the dark hours of the night, when the ghostly creatures of human fears and fantasies usually came to life, Vlad led the audience through the devil's curves with his restless, vibrating ... |

Quantum physics is strange. It tells us that a particle can be in two places at once. Indeed, that particle is also a wave, and everything in the quantum world can be described entirely in terms of waves, or entirely in terms of particles, whichever you prefer. All of this was clear by the end of the 1920s. But to the great distress of many physicists, let alone ordinary mortals, nobody has ever been able to come up with a common sense explanation of what is going on. Physicists have sought 'quanta of solace' in a variety of more or less convincing interpretations. Popular science master John Gribbin takes us on a ... |

Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI. When AI expert and investigative journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys.

Increasingly, she realized that the core truth of this massively disruptive sector is that its vision of success requires an almost unprecedented ... |

Страниците и в тази книга са един дълъг разказ. Няколкото така наречени епизода привидно го повеждат в различни посоки. Всъщност единствената посока е навътре към преживяванията на полковник Христо Лазаров от военното разузнаване. Читателят разбира, че името е измислено, за да скрие една конкретна личност. Този жив все още човек обаче е литературно обременен с преживяванията и на други като него. Така той става обобщаващ образ. В самия заник на своя дълъг живот полковникът от резерва Христо Лазаров разбира стойностната страна на нещата. А така също порочността, престъпността и бездушието на политическата класа, която ни ... |
