There’s a bit of oversell there. They can’t decode maths formula somebody is thinking about… jeez.
There’s a voice recognition AI thing I’ve used that gives a clue. It’s faster and more accurate when it’s looking for a set list of commands.
I don’t doubt the AI she talks about can decode a PIN number if it knows I’m visualizing a PIN number in a lab setting, but touch typing it on a keypad from almost subconscious memory while thinking about chocolate and the dodgy guy with the dog behind me… I doubt it.
I hadn’t heard of Havana Syndrome before. Interesting point in that Pyschology Today article:
One puzzling element is that my own research shows that the limits of safe exposure to RF radiation are much lower in Russia and several other Eastern countries than they are in the U.S. It seems that Russia has done experiments showing that there is toxicity for the brain if exposed to low levels of RF energy (for example, 0.1 watts per square meter) for more than three hours. Comparatively, the limit of toxicity by U.S. standards is 10 watts per square meter (100 times more than in Russia).
Surely we should be erring on the side of caution there.
Interesting. Did any of those Reddit morons and the like bother to find out who and what culture they’d be up against, really? Obviously they listened to the drumshills and got their sorry arses handed to them.
I know Russian competitors have been banned from all sorts of things lately, but 2022 was won by MIT with Russian institutions still featuring in the results. So they weren’t banned but barely scraped into the top 10 with Moscow ranked a measly 26th.
Seems like something changed.
They are apparently moving away from the Western style university degree accreditation system back to their original system. Dunno the details.
I don’t know if this sort of engine has been done before, but it looks pretty nifty.
One problem I see with it is using the pistons to close the exhaust ports, where I would think there would be carbon buildup on the sides of the pistons in that area which closes the exhaust ports, which might be scrubbing the hell out of the cylinder walls.
Looks nifty, shame he accuses them of fraud in the end without asking them. If they are saying that those are the results without forced air then the car having a compressor in it is a separate thing he should have asked about.
It’s a registered trademark, you could say your engine use patented ZeroStroke® technology if you wanted to do that. That another engineering org came up with the term shows that other people aren’t as trigger happy with claims of fraud either.
You assume, on the word of a company that is using terms they know don’t accurately describe their product. Like selling a car with Patented Porsche Turbocharged Engine® Technology, that has no turbo.
Calculated to make people think it’s more than it really is.
And, yes, you can get in trouble for that. Being a trademarked name doesn’t absolve you of all responsibility.
I’m not terribly impressed with their excuses either. Don’t want people to think it uses a fuel oil mixture like other two strokes? Two stroke marine diesels don’t either, and they don’t call themselves one stroke engines. Neither did the Napier Deltic opposed piston two stroke engines.
INNengine is the first one to introduce 1 Stroke technology, meaning our engines have 2 power events per revolution in every cylinder.
This allows them to deliver twice the power of a 2-Stroke and 4 times that of a 4-Stroke.
is fraudulent bullshit.
They’re fishing for investors, and they’re using made up bullshit to do it.
I’ve seen this kind of thing too many times before, and my spidey senses went off immediately when we got to “1 stroke engine technology* (*not a one stroke engine)”
