COMMERCIAL QUEST. "We present a new strategy for making silica colloidal crystal films with a sufficiently high level of structural perfection and optical quality to make it competitive as a practical route to photonic crystal optical components." https://lnkd.in/dAnTMPY View in LinkedIn

MODERN CRYSTAL QUEST. "It has been emphasized in the literature that the protein crystal perfection increases in microgravity conditions." (NASA space station experiment). https://lnkd.in/daH7g7g View in LinkedIn

"TOWARD PERFECTION: Kapellasite, Cu3Zn(OH)6Cl2, a New Model S = 1/2 Kagome Antiferromagnet." https://lnkd.in/d9ywQkc View in LinkedIn

IDEALIZED FORMS. "Crystalline perfection of high purity synthetic diamond crystal. It was found that by using strain-free and low defect crystals for the seeds, the line defects (dislocation bundles) could be removed, thereby improving the crystalline quality of the synthetic type IIa diamonds." https://lnkd.in/dvbdJFi View in LinkedIn

CRYSTAL MANTRA. "Growth and perfection of crystals." (1958). https://lnkd.in/dWj5wfY View in LinkedIn

MUTANT KILLS. "Mutation testing (or Mutation analysis or Program mutation) is used to design new software tests and evaluate the quality of existing software tests. Mutation testing involves modifying a program in small ways. Each mutated version is called a mutant and tests detect and reject mutants by causing the behavior of the original version to differ from the mutant. This is called killing the mutant. Test suites are measured by the percentage of mutants that they kill. New tests can be designed to kill additional mutants." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation_testing View in LinkedIn

MARCH OF PROGRESS. "In one particular sense the more recent forms must, on my theory, be higher than the more ancients; for each new species is formed by having had some advantage in the struggle for life over other and preceding forms." (Darwin). https://lnkd.in/deybuH5 View in LinkedIn

NOT A NIAEVE QUESTION. "Is it possible for an error to mutate a computer program causing it to evolve in the same way that biological organisms evolve?" https://lnkd.in/evQuB2z View in LinkedIn

FIRST STEPS IN SILICO. "Evolutionary algorithms are awesome! I love the one where scientists used it to get a simulated muscle system to teach itself how to walk: https://vimeo.com/79098420." https://lnkd.in/dEAsbig View in LinkedIn

NON-HUMAN THINKING. "I wrote a chess playing AI, and it would play other AIs in the class. I would think that I saw the best move for it to take but the computer would always have a move I thought was non optimal, but every move had some hidden advantage I couldn't see. I couldn't even beat my ai when I played against it." Despite being the product of the programmer. https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/3d3vct View in LinkedIn
