    Hi,

    What we thought:

    Prediction 5 . It will never be proved that
    +u(5) = 4,098 and S(5) = 47,176,870.
    -- Allen H. Brady, 1990 .

    How it started:

    To investigate AlphaEvolverCOs breadth, we applied
    the system to over 50 open problems in mathematical
    analysis, geometry, combinatorics and number theory.
    The systemrCOs flexibility enabled us to set up most
    experiments in a matter of hours. In roughly 75% of
    cases, it rediscovered state-of-the-art solutions, to
    the best of our knowledge. https://deepmind.google/blog/alphaevolve-a-gemini-powered-coding-agent-for-designing-advanced-algorithms/

    How its going:

    We prove that S(5) = 47, 176, 870 using the Coq proof
    assistant. The Busy Beaver value S(n) is the maximum
    number of steps that an n-state 2-symbol Turing machine
    can perform from the all-zero tape before halting, and
    S was historically introduced by Tibor Rad|| in 1962 as
    one of the simplest examples of an uncomputable function.
    The proof enumerates 181,385,789 Turing machines with 5
    states and, for each machine, decides whether it halts or
    not. Our result marks the first determination of a new
    Busy Beaver value in over 40 years and the first Busy
    Beaver value ever to be formally verified, attesting to the
    effectiveness of massively collaborative online research https://arxiv.org/pdf/2509.12337

    They claim not having used much AI. But could for
    example AlphaEvolve do it somehow nevertheless, more or
    less autonomously, and find the sixth busy beaver?

    Hi,

    Wonder why the Coq proof even should be
    different from anything that AI could produce.
    Its not a typical Euclid proof in a few steps,

    that also use enumeration, just like the Fly Speck
    proof, for the Keppler Conjecture. So lets see
    what happens next, could AlphaEvolve find

    the sixth busy beaver?

    Hi,

    Well I even don't know why I came up with
    the NPM hack hypothesis. Saw something
    on youtube. Maybe they just do maintenance.

    In the coming age of analog computing,
    symbolic logic means nothing:

    rCLThe high data-rate sense perception and
    identification abilities of the human system
    mostly bypass verbal/analytic awareness. We
    are generally conscious of a cognitive
    recognition after the fact. In this way, what
    we understand as consciousness has to be
    identified as a reflexive monitoring ability
    with quite limited application. To produce
    consciousness (artificial or otherwise) we
    are stepping down, not up.rCY
    rCo Frank Herbert, Destination: Void

    The comming age of analog computing might affect
    astrophisics, like telescope image processing
    who knows what. It probably does already.

    Have Fun!

    Hi,

    What if the planets in certain galaxies
    form a turning machine. Maybe they do even
    a BusyBeaver dance. What are the limits of

    modelling in the coming age of analog computing.
    Could Keppler have modelled a 3 planet system.
    Can we model a 3 planet system now ?

    "The corresponding series converges extremely
    slowly. That is, obtaining a value of meaningful
    precision requires so many terms that this
    solution is of little practical use. Indeed,
    in 1930, David Beloriszky calculated that if
    Sundman's series were to be used for astronomical
    observations, then the computations would involve
    at least 10^8000000 terms"

    Could AlphaEvolve even find the sixth beaver.

    Hi,

    1) Classical computing = Boolean logic + von Neumann architecture

    For decades, all mainstream computation was built on:
    Boolean algebra
    Logic gates
    Scalar operations executed sequentially
    Memory and compute as separate blocks
    Even floating-point arithmetic was implemented on top of Boolean logic.

    This shaped how programmers think rCo algorithms expressed
    as symbolic operations, control flow, and discrete steps.

    2) AI accelerators break from that model

    Modern accelerators rCo GPUs, TPUs, NPUs, and custom matrix
    engines rCo use a different computational substrate:

    Instead of Boolean logic:
    raA Bulk linear algebra over vectors/tensors

    Instead of instruction-by-instruction control:
    raA Dataflow graphs

    Instead of sequential compute on registers:
    raA Massively parallel fused-multiply-add units

    Instead of manually orchestrated loops:
    raA High-level declarative specs (XLA, MLIR, TVM)

    Hi,

    I am doing the wake-up call until everybody
    gets ear-bleeding. It just too cringe to
    see the symbolics computing morons struggle

    with connectionism. But given that humans
    have a brain with neurons, it should be obvious
    that symbolism and connectionism are just two

    sides of the same coin.

    that symbolism and connectionism are just two

    Hi,

    1) Classical computing = Boolean logic + von Neumann architecture

    For decades, all mainstream computation was built on:
    Boolean algebra
    Logic gates
    Scalar operations executed sequentially
    Memory and compute as separate blocks
    Even floating-point arithmetic was implemented on top of Boolean logic.

    This shaped how programmers think rCo algorithms expressed
    as symbolic operations, control flow, and discrete steps.

    2) AI accelerators break from that model

    Modern accelerators rCo GPUs, TPUs, NPUs, and custom matrix
    engines rCo use a different computational substrate:

    Instead of Boolean logic:
    raA Bulk linear algebra over vectors/tensors

    Instead of instruction-by-instruction control:
    raA Dataflow graphs

    Instead of sequential compute on registers:
    raA Massively parallel fused-multiply-add units

    Instead of manually orchestrated loops:
    raA High-level declarative specs (XLA, MLIR, TVM)

    Hi,

    Wonder why the Coq proof even should be
    different from anything that AI could produce.
    Its not a typical Euclid proof in a few steps,

    it rather uses also enumeration, just like the
    Fly Speck proof, for the Keppler Conjecture. So
    lets see what happens next, could AlphaEvolve

    find the sixth busy beaver?

    The Busy Beaver Coprocessor has been designed to solve the Busy

    The input argument is a natural number 'n' that represents the
    complexity of an algorithm described as a Turing Machine.

    What we thought:

    Prediction 5 . It will never be proved that
    +u(5) = 4,098 and S(5) = 47,176,870.
    -- Allen H. Brady, 1990-a .

    How it started:

    To investigate AlphaEvolverCOs breadth, we applied
    the system to over 50 open problems in mathematical
    analysis, geometry, combinatorics and number theory.
    The systemrCOs flexibility enabled us to set up most
    experiments in a matter of hours. In roughly 75% of
    cases, it rediscovered state-of-the-art solutions, to
    the best of our knowledge.
    https://deepmind.google/blog/alphaevolve-a-gemini-powered-coding-agent-for-designing-advanced-algorithms/


    How its going:

    We prove that S(5) = 47, 176, 870 using the Coq proof
    assistant. The Busy Beaver value S(n) is the maximum
    number of steps that an n-state 2-symbol Turing machine
    can perform from the all-zero tape before halting, and
    S was historically introduced by Tibor Rad|| in 1962 as
    one of the simplest examples of an uncomputable function.
    The proof enumerates 181,385,789 Turing machines with 5
    states and, for each machine, decides whether it halts or
    not. Our result marks the first determination of a new
    Busy Beaver value in over 40 years and the first Busy
    Beaver value ever to be formally verified, attesting to the
    effectiveness of massively collaborative online research
    https://arxiv.org/pdf/2509.12337

    They claim not having used much AI. But could for
    example AlphaEvolve do it somehow nevertheless, more or
    less autonomously, and find the sixth busy beaver?

    Unified Memory with Multiple Tensor Cores is

    is possibly toned down by Data Flow, so that
    in principle one can run the same thing on a

    But in principle the architecture is rather:

    The above class of machines is not widely know.

    multiple processors can read and write. A

    Modelling via von Neuman what happens there
    can be quite challenging. At least it doesn't
    allow for a direct modelling.

    What a later processor sees, depends extremly
    on the timing and which processor "wins" the
    write.

    Also I don't know what it would buy you
    intellectually to simulate a PRAM on a random
    von Neuman machine. The random von Neuman

    machine could need more steps than the PRAM
    in summary, because it has to simulate a PRAM.
    But I guess its the intellectual questioning

    that needs also a revision when confronted
    with the new architecture of unified memory
    and tensor processing cores.

    Could Keppler

    Johannes _Kepler_

    have modelled a 3 planet system.

    Yes, he did, but not exactly.

    Can we model a 3 planet system now ?

    Obviously; there are simulations of the Sol System e.g. in Universe Sandbox.
    But the 3-body-problem is not about 3 planets, but more general.

    There is no *general* *exact* solution to this problem; just a solution for
    the *restricted* 3-body-problem in which one of the objects has a very large mass; the second object, e.g. a gas giant like Jupiter, has a smaller mass
    and is very far away from the first object; and the third object. e.g. an asteroid, has a small that is small enough to be negligible, and is
    comparably far away from the first and second object, respectively.

    And this is neglecting general-relativistic corrections that lead to an additional contribution in the precession of the perihelia (orbits are not actually ellipses, closed curves).

    have modelled a 3 planet system.

    Yes, he did, but not exactly.

    Can we model a 3 planet system now ?

    Obviously; there are simulations of the Sol System e.g. in Universe Sandbox.
    But the 3-body-problem is not about 3 planets, but more general.

    There is no *general* *exact* solution to this problem; just a solution for
    the *restricted* 3-body-problem in which one of the objects has a very large mass; the second object, e.g. a gas giant like Jupiter, has a smaller mass
    and is very far away from the first object; and the third object. e.g. an asteroid, has a small that is small enough to be negligible, and is
    comparably far away from the first and second object, respectively.

    And this is neglecting general-relativistic corrections that lead to an additional contribution in the precession of the perihelia (orbits are not actually ellipses, closed curves).

    Do not underestimate turing machines. I said neurons

    The Busy Beaver Coprocessor has been designed to solve the Busy
    Beaver Function for 5 states. This function (also known as the
    Rado's Sigma Function) is an uncomputable problem from information
    theory. The input argument is a natural number 'n' that represents
    the complexity of an algorithm described as a Turing Machine.

    What we thought:

    Prediction 5 . It will never be proved that
    +u(5) = 4,098 and S(5) = 47,176,870.
    -- Allen H. Brady, 1990-a .

    How it started:

    To investigate AlphaEvolverCOs breadth, we applied
    the system to over 50 open problems in mathematical
    analysis, geometry, combinatorics and number theory.
    The systemrCOs flexibility enabled us to set up most
    experiments in a matter of hours. In roughly 75% of
    cases, it rediscovered state-of-the-art solutions, to
    the best of our knowledge.
    https://deepmind.google/blog/alphaevolve-a-gemini-powered-coding-agent-for-designing-advanced-algorithms/


    How its going:

    We prove that S(5) = 47, 176, 870 using the Coq proof
    assistant. The Busy Beaver value S(n) is the maximum
    number of steps that an n-state 2-symbol Turing machine
    can perform from the all-zero tape before halting, and
    S was historically introduced by Tibor Rad|| in 1962 as
    one of the simplest examples of an uncomputable function.
    The proof enumerates 181,385,789 Turing machines with 5
    states and, for each machine, decides whether it halts or
    not. Our result marks the first determination of a new
    Busy Beaver value in over 40 years and the first Busy
    Beaver value ever to be formally verified, attesting to the
    effectiveness of massively collaborative online research
    https://arxiv.org/pdf/2509.12337

    They claim not having used much AI. But could for
    example AlphaEvolve do it somehow nevertheless, more or
    less autonomously, and find the sixth busy beaver?

    Hi,

    The head of a turing machine is usually a finite
    state machine. That digests the tape reading, and
    creates a new top writing or head movement.

    A finite state machines complexity can be measured
    in the number of states. Transitions between states
    are labeled with tape reading and tap wrinting/

    head movement. So the state is not what is writte
    on the tape. Its an internal state. Its relatively
    easy to turn a finite state machine, into an

    artificial neural network. Already ChatGPT does that,
    when reads tokens and writes tokens, just like
    a turning machine.

    "A Turing machine is a mathematical model of
    computation describing an abstract machine that
    manipulates symbols on a strip of tape according
    to a table of rules"
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_machine

    Its really funnny how people really need some
    ear bleeding to understand the two sides,
    symbolism and connectionsim.

    Have Fun!

    Rado's Sigma Function) is an uncomputable problem from information
    theory. The input argument is a natural number 'n' that represents
    the complexity of an algorithm described as a Turing Machine.

    Hi,

    You might also try this here:

    McCulloch, Warren S.; Pitts, Walter (1943-12-01).
    "A logical calculus of the ideas immanent in
    nervous activity". The Bulletin of Mathematical
    Biophysics. 5 (4): 115rCo133. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~epxing/Class/10715/reading/McCulloch.and.Pitts.pdf

    It has a simple neuron model, and shows
    for example in Figure 1. How it can act
    in a Boolean algebra way.

    If you have Booean algebra, you can also
    build finite state machine. You can encode
    state as bit vectors.

    Mild Shock schrieb:
    Hi,

    The head of a turing machine is usually a finite
    state machine. That digests the tape reading, and
    creates a new top writing or head movement.

    A finite state machines complexity can be measured
    in the number of states. Transitions between states
    are labeled with tape reading and tap wrinting/

    head movement. So the state is not what is writte
    on the tape. Its an internal state. Its relatively
    easy to turn a finite state machine, into an

    artificial neural network. Already ChatGPT does that,
    when reads tokens and writes tokens, just like
    a turning machine.

    "A Turing machine is a mathematical model of
    computation describing an abstract machine that
    manipulates symbols on a strip of tape according
    to a table of rules"

    Hi,

    If you know BB(N), you have a halting decision procedure
    for N-turing machines. Since if BB(N) is maximum number
    S(N) of steps before halting,

    you can just run an arbitrary turing machine, and when
    its steps exceeds S(N), you know its not a halting
    turing machine.

    So knowing BB(N) makes the halting problem decidable.
    But the halting problem is not decidable. So there
    must be some M maybe where BB(M) has no S(N) , no

    maximum. Idea is to construct turing machines that
    relate to consistency problems, consistency problems
    can be even harder than halting problems, we might

    ask for the opposite, does a program never halt.
    Since never halt could be interpreted that no
    inconsistency is derived. Again knowing BB(N) would

    help, since dedidability via S(N) is established both
    ways, saying "Yes" to halt, and saying "No" to halt.
    So we can show a reducibility from consistency

    to busy beaver, I guess.

    Maybe the local rules of a turing machine

    a de Sitter universe has a Hubble Law that is not

    There are ways to cast de Sitter space with

    unlike other FLRW models, de Sitter space can
    be thought of as a static solution to Einstein's
    equations even though the geodesics followed by
    observers necessarily diverge as expected from
    the expansion of physical spatial dimensions.

    As a model for the universe, de Sitter's solution
    was not considered viable for the observed universe
    until models for inflation and dark energy were
    developed. Before then, it was assumed that the
    Big Bang implied only an acceptance of the weaker
    cosmological principle, which holds that isotropy
    and homogeneity apply spatially but not temporally." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Sitter_universe

    Hi,

    Actually the BB(5) does also construct machines,
    and does also look at the code of machines.
    It has an amazing history, since the candidate

    for the busiest beaver was already found in 1989:

    47,176,870 4098 current BB(5), step champion https://turbotm.de/~heiner/BB/mabu90.html

    They use an amazing simple technique to speed up
    their search. Realizing macro turing machines, that
    encode what happens with k cells on a tape.

    Plus heuristics to "prove" that a TM does not halt,
    which seem to be sufficient for 5 state TMs. Plus
    heuristics to bring the number of considered 5 state

    TMs down, since without reduction they would be
    26*10^12 many, but they needed only consider 5*10^7
    many. So that after about ten days using a

    33 MHz Clipper CPU they got their result.

    Bye

    P.S.: My estimate, with todays laptop can do
    it in 2.5 hours, or maybe in 2.5 minutes if using
    an AI accelerator. Not 100% sure. Wasn't even

    thinking about such a modern replica of the
    problem. Coq used Rust. We could use even something
    else that would tap in AI accelerators, maybe

    even JavaScript and run it in a browser.

    That's actually possible, because we had something called 'Lebensborn'
    in Germany, where 'Arians' were supposed to produce a 'Superrace'.

    The best 'producer' was allegedly the 'Fuehrer' himself.

    He could eventually have fathered hundreds of children and nobody would
    know.

    Some children are known, however:

    NOT true.-a Von Neumann's architecture "was based on the work of J.

    https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zuse_Z3

    Didn't you know, that 1937 was much earlier than the Eniac in 1945?

    That's the date of the Z1, isn't it? - The Z3 came later, 1941.

    Yes, before the ENIAC. And the plans for the Z3 were of course
    designed before their initial operation in 1941, and based on
    concepts also of its predecessors.

    But yes, history was widely misrepresented and ignoring those!
    This is an effect you can observe also in other technical areas.


    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann#Computer_science>

    ENIAC (completed in 1945) and EDVAC (completed in 1949, in operation from
    1951 to 1962) were "programmable, electronic, general-purpose digital
    computers".-a They were NOT based on or copies of the Z series of
    computers
    as invented and built by Konrad Zuse; the first computer of that
    series that
    was fully digital was the Z5, ordered in 1950 and delivered in 1953:

    I think that statement with the somewhat fuzzy term "fully digital"
    and its attribution to the Z5 (and not before) is not correct.

    The point is that the first computers had slight variances in their
    concepts, and if one wants to claim being the first all he has to
    do is defining the own variances as the characteristic properties
    of "a real [first] computer".

    To me it's quite obvious that the Z3 was the first running computer
    with binary logic and programmable.

    But given the severe nationalistic/patriotic struggles and battles
    who was the first who invented whatever important was invented will
    make discussions here fruitless. The facts (dates and features, and
    even construction plans) can be found online, and instead of hitting
    each others' heads with fitting "definitions" to justify one or the
    other position (which is doomed to fail) people can read the sources
    and judge themselves; there's a lot of substantial/reliable material
    available.

    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC>
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDVAC>
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z5_(computer)>

    The liberators stole it from Zuse (like zillions of other patents from
    other German inventors).


    'Operation paperclip' was actually a systematical manhunt by US forces
    for German scientists.

    Also the patens were plundered, especially those from single inventors
    like Zuse.

    The US tropps actually invaded eastern Germany prior to Soviet troops, because they wanted to get hold of scientists from Ohrdruf in Thuringia.

    Twice wrong (according to the Wikipedia articles about them).

    the first reliably running computer system was the Z3, AFAIK.

    It was a *digital* computer, but NOT the first *electronic* computer.

    Yes, before the ENIAC.

    The ENIAC (completed in 1945) was (arguably) the first digital *electronic* computer:

    * Z1 (1936-1938):
    "motor-driven mechanical computer"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z1_(computer)>

    * Z2 (1940):
    "electromechanical (mechanical and relay-based) digital computer"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z2_(computer)>

    * Z3 (1938-1941):
    "electromechanical computer [...] the world's first working programmable,
    fully automatic digital computer"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z3_(computer)>

    * Z4 (1942):
    "arguably the world's first commercial digital computer [...] Like the
    earlier Z2, it comprised a combination of mechanical memory and
    electromechanical logic."
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z4_(computer)>

    * ENIAC (1945):
    "first programmable, electronic, general-purpose digital computer"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC>

    * EDVAC (1946-1952):
    "one of the earliest electronic computers [...] binary rather than
    decimal, and was designed to be a stored-program computer".
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDVAC>

    * Z5 (1950-1953):
    "the first commercial built-to-order mainframe in Germany"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z5_(computer)>

    And the plans for the Z3 were of course designed before their initial operation in 1941, and based on
    concepts also of its predecessors.

    But yes, history was widely misrepresented and ignoring those!

    Nonsense.

    Well, yes. At least mostly. That's why I've written upthread that
    the concepts from the earlier Z1 were reused in Z3.

    My point was just when the first _working_ digital and programmable
    computer was invented. - And in my humble opinion that was the Z3!

    A bit care must be taken though with your quoted Wiki paragraph:
    "Viele Ideen der Von-Neumann-Architektur [...]"
    It's - at least by this statement - open what was already existing
    and what property was new in von Neumann's concepts. - Here's where
    the arguments may become heated; remember my statement about: "just
    define the properties of the own invention, and every other (prior)
    system may not match by some detail" (sort of).

    The sometimes used technology reasoning is certainly not convincing
    if we're speaking about the architecture principles and concepts.

    [...]

    It is patently irrelevant, whether von Neumann knew the patents of Zuse
    (or not).
    Yes, basically also true. - But mind that a "Deutsches Reichspatent"
    isn't valid in the USA. You need a separate application in the USA.

    What's also true is that even a "Deutsches Reichspatent" would make
    it possible to make a correct historic attribution of that invention
    (if only 'ex post').


    Therefore the patents of Zuse were simply stolen and also the invention itself ascribed to somebody else

    Given that they assume that von Neumann did not know about Zuse's
    invention I think that the word "stolen" is a too harsh valuation.

    I agree concerning the existing (and common) ascription mischief.

    I'd say, no. Neither Z1 nor Z3 are von Neumann architecture computers.
    And it has nothing to them being either electronic or mechanical.
    The key element (==distinguishing feature) of von Neumann architecture,
    at least in modern (say, of last 60-65 years) meaning of the term
    is that program store and data memory reside in the same space. Which
    leads to possibility of self-modifying code. Which led to Von
    Neumann's claim that index register is unnecessary for array
    processing. Which is undeniable mathematical truth and serious
    engineering mistake at the same time.

    Which leads to possibility of self-modifying code.

    And that specifically is neither a necessity for a "[universally]

    We avoid in practice exactly that property (modulo virus-developers,
    maybe, and similar corner cases).

    Which led to Von
    Neumann's claim that index register is unnecessary for array
    processing. Which is undeniable mathematical truth and serious
    engineering mistake at the same time.

    Yes.


    An inherent logical problem lies also in the argumentation chain
    we commonly see...
    "Contemporary computers are "basically" all characterized by
    von Neumann's architectures."
    "Von Neumann's computers are defined by ...property list..."
    "Von Neumann was the inventor of [contemporary] computers."

    My point was just when the first _working_ digital and programmable
    computer was invented. - And in my humble opinion that was the Z3!

    A bit care must be taken though with your quoted Wiki paragraph:
    "Viele Ideen der Von-Neumann-Architektur [...]"
    It's - at least by this statement - open what was already existing
    and what property was new in von Neumann's concepts. - Here's where
    the arguments may become heated; remember my statement about: "just
    define the properties of the own invention, and every other (prior)
    system may not match by some detail" (sort of).

    The sometimes used technology reasoning is certainly not convincing
    if we're speaking about the architecture principles and concepts.

    [...]

    It is patently irrelevant, whether von Neumann knew the patents of
    Zuse (or not).
    Yes, basically also true. - But mind that a "Deutsches Reichspatent"
    isn't valid in the USA. You need a separate application in the USA.


    An invention needs to be new.

    Otherwise it is not an invention.

    At least this is the main principle upon which patents are granted in
    Germany.

    The US-patent office is based upon a slightly different principle.

    The main principle is that of a 'claim', which is occupied by some company.

    This difference can also be found in the difference between US copyright
    and German 'Urheberrecht'.

    German Urheberrecht is not based on any kind of registration, but automatically granted to the creator of some sort of art.

    And patents can not be registered in Germany, if the invention isn't
    new, whether 'prior art' is registered, patended or just published in a magazine.

    This is a huge difference, because no formal registration of prior art
    is necessary.

    In contrast the US patent is mainly a claim and 'occupied' by whatever
    dirty means necessary.

    *facepalm*

    Once again:

    | Von Neumann consulted for the Army's Ballistic Research Laboratory, most
    | notably on the ENIAC project,[274] as a member of its Scientific Advisory
    | Committee.[275] Although the single-memory, stored-program architecture is
    | commonly called von Neumann architecture, the architecture was based on
    | the work of J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, inventors of ENIAC and its
    | successor, EDVAC. While consulting for the EDVAC project at the University
    | of Pennsylvania, von Neumann wrote an incomplete "First Draft of a Report
    | on the EDVAC". The paper, whose premature distribution nullified the
    | patent claims of Eckert and Mauchly, described a computer, that stored
    | both its data and its program in the same address space, unlike the
    | earliest computers which stored their programs separately on paper tape or
    | plugboards. This architecture became the basis of most modern computer
    | designs.

    With a granted patent in Germany you can exploit the commercial
    gains yourself or with companies licensing the patents during
    the first years after getting the patent.

    Besides the commercial aspects the primary point of a patent can
    probably be derived from the meaning of its name; Latin "patere",
    to be open [for the society], to provide gain for mankind.

    Is it not particularly important for programmable computer.
    When I design MCU-based systems, my MCUs are physically able to do von

    property, treating them as if they were Harvard.
    The biggest and fastest growing computing business of recent years
    is based on programmable computers (GPGPUs, TPUs, NPUs) that can not
    modify theier own programs.
    However, computers with which we interact most, so called
    general-purpose computers, from smartphones to servers, are very
    heavily dependent on being von Neumann.


    Which leads to possibility of self-modifying code.

    And that specifically is neither a necessity for a "[universally] programmable computer" - IMO the historic noteworthy key property! -

    You are thinking about SMC at small. Think about it at larger scale.
    Level one: OS loads application. It's rare that it just blindly
    copies the image from disk. More often it modifies it to fit at
    particular address. Esp. so today, with ASLR considered must.
    Level two: JIT. For good or for bad, a cornerstone of modern web.

    Which led to Von
    Neumann's claim that index register is unnecessary for array

    It's a HUGE problem, because tons of almost every kind of art, music, invention, writing and so forth was not created by the famed person, who allegedly created it.

    Usually you have an 'alpha', who didn't do anything at all (sing, paint,
    write or invent) and a (or occasionally many) 'beta' who did all the
    difficult work for a small amount of money.

    Now the 'alpha' gets the product of a certain beta from an agent (let's
    call that 'Q') and declares it to be the own work.

    Other scumbags clap their hands and write euphoric articles.

    The work is copied and sold millions of times and everybody is happy.

    (Well, not quite everybody is happy. But that little inconvenience could
    be accepted.)

    Einstein and Szillard patented a device, which is commonly called
    'Einstein's fridge'.

    But that device has only one known use as part of a fast breeding reactor.

    And a group of students who wanted to replicate the device found out,
    that it didn't cool.

    So, a plausible guess would be:

    the 'fridge' was actually meant to become a part of a fast breeding
    reactor, but named 'fridge' to hide this fact.


    But that would lead to a very unpleasant conclusion:

    to patent a part of a fast breeding reactor would require the existence
    of a fast breeding reactor in the first place.

    And that would require the need of Plutonium, because that's the stuff
    which thoese reactors 'breed'.

    And as Plutonium is among the most toxic substances on the planet, it
    requires good reason to want Plutonium.

    That could actually be the existence of atomic bombs already in the late 1920th/early 1930th in Germany. And that would suggest, that all stories related to the creation of the bomb were fake, too.

    That would mean, that the so called 'Manhattan project' didn't invent
    the bomb, but had other objectives (like e.g. placing a 'secrecy gag'
    upon theoretical physics).

    Also chilling would be, that in such a scenario the Germans were in
    possesion of atomic bombs already in the late 1920th.

    In other words, Albert Einstein himself took out a patent on a fast
    breeding reactor, but called it something else:

    When Albert Einstein first took out a patent on his/the first nuclear
    reactor system in 1927


    Here is what a Reactor looks like today:

    Albert Einstein and his gang of friends were busy building an atomic
    bomb before the Manhattan Project...

    here is FERMI, Enrico patent in 1935 https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/fine-printed-books-manuscripts-including-americana/patent-method-producing-nuclear-reactions-139/270604?ldp_breadcrumb=back&sc_lang=zh


    Some recent work by E.Fermi and L. Szilard, which has been com-

    municated to me in manuscript, leads me to expect that the element
    uran-

    ium may be turned into a new and important source of energy in the im-

    mediate future.

    b) to speed up the experimental work,which is at present being car-

    ried on within the limits of the budgets of University laboratories

    https://hypertextbook.com/eworld/einstein/#first


    The "University laboratories" is in fact the Manhattan Project.


    They got the money, right?

    They finish the experiment...

    they dropped the bomb.

    Oh, one other thing...if information is not in his head, he thinks it
    must not exist anywhere else.

    and one other thing...he falls on the floor alot and make a noise that

    So, everytime you respond to his post, check the Newgroups: heading
    and add three more newgroups to the Headers. (including the newsgroup
    you are posting from)

    I understand English is your second language.

    Under Einstein's name you can clearly see the Heading of the word in
    Capitol letters REFRIDERATION (meaning all caps)


    refrigeration

    refrigeration, the process of removing heat from an enclosed space or
    from a substance for the purpose of lowering the temperature.

    https://www.google.com/search?q=define+refrigeration


    REFRIDERATION is a process, it is not a machine.

    It is a process.

    https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/refrigeration


    You probably need an understanding also of what the word "process"
    means...

    define process

    a series of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular
    end.

    perform a series of mechanical or chemical operations on (something)
    in order to change or preserve it.

    a series of actions that produce something or that lead to a
    particular result



    Now, if you take
    REFRIDERATION
    and add a process

    Albert Einstein's patent is simply a Refrideration cooling system
    process to keep it from having a China Syndrome...

    The China syndrome is when a nuclear power plant's radioactive core's
    cooling system fails.



    Albert Einstein is all 'about' Atomic Bombs.

    That's all he thinks of..

    building an atomic bomb.

    It is Albert Einstein's 'responsibility' that an atomic bomb gets
    built properly.

    It's his baby.

    His life goal was to build an atomic bomb.

    It's all he talked about.

    "...I showed (39 years ago already) that according to the special
    theory of relativity, there exists an equivalence between the mass and
    energy of a system, that is, that the two are only different
    manifestations of the same thing. Also I noted that the energies
    released by radioactive decay are great enough to be emitted in a
    nuclear reaction when there is an imbalance of mass...." -Albert
    Einstein


    Atomic Bomb School.

    As everyone knows by now...
    if you went to a class
    given by Albert Einstein..

    you became a student
    in Albert Einstein's

    How To Build an Atomic Bomb.


    Most of yous already know
    the names of the students
    who attended
    Albert Einstein's

    Atomic Bomb School.

    Should I list them all?
    Or one by one??

    From 1905
    Albert Einstein
    drew a straight line
    to 1939.

    To build an atomic bomb.

    First he had to assemble a team.

    He did that in the 1920's
    by teaching his students
    How to build an atomic bomb.


    Enrico Fermi when he was 21 years old:

    Enrico Fermi was intensively involved with Einstein's theory of
    relativity and traced the hidden power of atomic nuclei.
    In 1923, he wrote that it would probably not be possible to release
    this energy in the near future, "because
    the first effect would be an explosion so terrible that it would tear
    the physicist who tried it to pieces".


    His first was a paper on electrodynamics of a rigid, charged body. The
    second and third papers focused on his first love, relativity theory;
    the third
    presented an important theorem about how the theory works within very
    small distances and proposed a system of coordinates to make the
    analysis of
    these small distances easier to compute. The fourth was a highly
    successful
    effort to reconcile the different ways that the electromagnetic mass
    of a rigid
    spherical charged bodyuthat is, the mass measured by application of
    force in
    an electromagnetic fielduis measured in classical electrodynamic
    theory and
    in relativity.

    A fifth paper, apparently commissioned for a German publication while
    he was still at Pisa but published after graduation, was an
    appreciation of
    relativity. This essay was one of the very few published by an Italian physicist to evince any enthusiasm for Einstein and his outlandish
    theories of
    space, time, and gravity. FermiAs main purpose was,
    characteristically, to call
    attention not to the puzzling philosophical and metaphysical
    consequences of
    the theory but rather to one of the theoryAs most compelling physical predictions:


    If we could liberate the energy contained in one gram of matter we
    would get more energy
    than exerted by a thousand horses working continuously over three
    years. (Comments
    seem superfluous!) It will be said, with good reason, that in the near
    future at least that it
    does not appear possible to find a way to liberate this awesome amount
    of energy. This is
    indeed as one can only hope; an explosion of such an awesome amount of
    energy would
    blow to pieces the physicist who had the misfortune of finding a way
    to produce it.


    He may not have been the first person to notice this consequence of
    EinsteinAs work, but he was certainly one of the very few at the time
    who
    emphasized its importance. In light of what life had in store for him,
    his
    words are particularly prophetic. Years later, as he witnessed the
    first test of


    in Einstein's own words:


    An Elementary Derivation of the Equivalence of Mass and Energy

    THE FOLLOWING DERIVATION of the law of equivalence, which has not been published before, has two advantages. Although it makes use of the
    principle of special relativity, it does not presume the formal
    machinery of the theory but uses only three previously known laws:
    (1) The law of the conservation of momentum.
    (2) The expression for the pressure of radiation; that is, the
    momentum
    of a complex of radiation moving in a fixed direction.
    (3) The well known expression for the aberration of light (influence
    of
    the motion of the earth on the apparent location of the fixed
    stars-Bradley).
    We now consider the following system. Let the body B rest

    freely in space with respect to the system Ko. Two complexes of
    radiation S, S'each of energy E/2 move in the positive and negative xo direction respectively and are eventually absorbed by B. With this
    absorption
    the energy of B increases by E. The body B stays at rest with respect
    to
    Ko by reasons of symmetry.
    an atomic bomb and considered his role in making that test possible,
    he
    certainly thought back to these words, written when he was just
    twenty-one
    years old.

    Albert Einstein in 1905 who first 'hinted' of "a very interesting
    conclusion"
    https://einsteinpapers.press.princeton.edu/vol2-trans/186

    (Now, "a very interesting conclusion" is also known as ...the aha!
    moment.)


    "Perhaps it will prove possible to test this theory using bodies whose
    energy content is variable to a high degree (e.g., salts of radium).
    -- Albert Einstein (1905)

    https://einsteinpapers.press.princeton.edu/vol2-trans/188

    "... it will prove possible to test this theory"


    "That weapon has a direct link to Einstein's three-page paper. In a
    nuclear fission reaction, an atomic nucleus splits, resulting in a
    reduced overall mass of matter, which is emitted in the form of
    released energy."

    that no one in the United States 'picked up' on Albert Einstein's "a
    very interesting conclusion" except from some guiena named Enrico
    Fermi.


    "because the first effect would be an explosion so terrible that it
    would tear the physicist who tried it to pieces". --Enrico Fermi 1923


    Now, do yous actually believe this is a BLOUSE that Albert Einstein
    file
    a patent for in 1936????


    https://patents.google.com/patent/USD101756?oq=USD101756-0




    Of course not. Albert Einstein was tooo busy building his atomic
    bombs.

    He had to come up with a way to protect others from being exposed to
    URANIUM RADIATION.

    So he simply designed a Radiation Vest Jacket:

    It's not a blouse, it's a radiation vest!

    a

    meaning not having to do with 'women'.

    wore a radation jacket
    at the Manhattan Project.

    Richard Feynman died from exposure,

    I guess Albert Einstein decided NOT to
    tell anyone about the dangerous raidation
    exposure...he didn't want anyone scared off
    from finishing his atomic bomb.

    He even joked about it..he said:
    'I been exposed by so much radium, I should be dead by now!'

    Of course, Albert Einstein died from radium exposure.

    I understand English is your second language.

    Under Einstein's name you can clearly see the Heading of the word in
    Capitol letters REFRIDERATION (meaning all caps)

    REFRIDERATION is a process, it is not a machine.

    You are right!
    "An apparatus for producing refrigeration"
    does not produce a machine.

    It _is_ a machine which is called a refrigerator.


    It is a process.

    You probably need an understanding also of what the word "process"
    means...

    define process

    a series of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular
    end.

    perform a series of mechanical or chemical operations on (something)
    in order to change or preserve it.

    a series of actions that produce something or that lead to a
    particular result

    Do you mean that an apparatus that is performing the process
    REFRIDERATION must be fast breading reactor?

    :-D

    You would have to be an Einstein to think of that!

    Luckly, you are powerless
    to prevent others from
    drawing their own conclusions.

    near you.

    I just
    dump it here:
    https://notebooklm.google/

    and a few seconds
    I'll have hours of
    two people discussing
    how Albert Einstein
    built the Atomic Bomb
    in a audio and video Podcast!


    Here is a sample my Library I have stored... https://groups.google.com/g/sci.physics.relativity/search?q=Albert%20Einstein%20%20author%3AThe%20author%3AStarmaker%20subject%3AEinstein

    Albert Einstein's patent is simply a Refrideration cooling system

    cooling system fails.)

    US1781541.pdf

    Anyone today who still thinks the patent is for cooling food has
    tested Positive for Stupid.

    :-D

    Einstein and Szilard's patent was bought by the Swedish company Electrolux.

    In 1953 (when I was a kid) my parents bought
    an Electrolux absorption refrigerator.

    Fortunately, we were so Stupid that we didn't realise that we had
    a fast breading reactor in the kitchen.




    The only known use of Einstein's fridge is as a part of a fast breeding reactor.

    Therefore, my guess was: 'fridge' was a misnomer, to hide the real
    purpose and the device was actually meant as a part of a fast breeder.

    If otherwise, there is a need to show a working fridge, which is based
    on Einstein's design.

    But I read, that a group of students tried to replicate the 'fride' and
    found out, that it didn't cool.

    But as patent it wouldn't make much difference, if the 'inert gas' is
    actually molten Natrium (or some other molten metal).

    In 1953 (when I was a kid) my parents bought

    I and thousands of other people have seen working fridges
    based on Einstein and Szilard's patent.


    But I read, that a group of students tried to replicate the 'fride' and found out, that it didn't cool.

    Why would they do that when they could buy a working version of
    Einstein and Szilard's absorption refrigerator from Electrolux?

    That was what my parents did, and I can assure that it
    worked for many years.


    But as patent it wouldn't make much difference, if the 'inert gas' is actually molten Natrium (or some other molten metal).


    Here is Einstein and Szilard's patent application:

    https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/53/e9/74/2cde176701fab8/US1781541.pdf

    I quote from it:
    "A suitable refrigerant, for instance butane,
    in liquid form is contained within evaporator 1.
    An inert gas, for instance ammonia, is
    introduced into evaporator 1 through conduit
    30 and distributor head 31. The refrigerant
    evaporates in the evaporator.."

    The "inert gas" is ammonia, so from whence have you got
    the idiotic idea that the "inert gas" is molten metal?

    There is no way you can read the patent application without
    understanding that it is a description of a refrigerator with
    no moving parts.

    So you have not read it.

    Do you not understand how stupid it is to think that a patent
    application which you haven't read, really is a description
    of a fast breading reactor?

    But why have you not read it? Can't you read?

    No, because this is a 'non sequitur'.

    Sure!

    But how many of them investigated, whether or not these fridges were

    My guess: not a single buyer did that, because nobody cared.

    THAT was actually the question.

    Iow: was that patented device actually an absorption fridge or a part
    needed for a fast breeding reactor????

    We could check that by building a 'fridge' according to Einstein's
    patent and check whether or not it cools.

    But we actually don't need to do that, because a group of engineering
    students did that already and found out, that Einstein's 'fridge' did
    NOT cool.

    Instead it is common knowledge, that Einstein's 'fridge' is used in fast breeding reactors.

    The endresult:

    two points for fast breeding reactor

    zero points for 'fridge'.

    You didn't answer my question.

    The "apparatus for producing refrigeration" is described in detail
    in the patent application.

    https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/53/e9/74/2cde176701fab8/US1781541.pdf

    This isn't a scientific text you have to be a physicist to understand.
    An engineer should be qualified to read it.

    Why can't you read it an see for yourself what kind of apparatus its is?

    We could check that by building a 'fridge' according to Einstein's
    patent and check whether or not it cools.>
    But we actually don't need to do that, because a group of engineering students did that already and found out, that Einstein's 'fridge' did
    NOT cool.

    Instead it is common knowledge, that Einstein's 'fridge' is used in fast breeding reactors.

    SIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D and ROFL


    The endresult:

    two points for fast breeding reactor

    zero points for 'fridge'.


    Can you point out where in the detailed description it
    is clear that the apparatus is a part of a fast breeding reactor?

    The simple fact that the Electrolux fridge my parents and a lot of

    no moving parts which had the same machinery as described here:

    https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/53/e9/74/2cde176701fab8/US1781541.pdf

    The refigerator is described in detail.

    Moreover, the patent application ("filed December 16, 1927, Serial No.
    240,566, and in Germany December 16, 1926") reads

    "ALBERT EINSTEIN, OF BERLIN, AND LEO SZILARD, of BERLIN-WILMERSDORF,
    GERMANY, ASSIGNORS TO ELECTROLUX SERVEL CORPORATION OF NEW YORK, N.Y., A. CORPORATION OF DELAWARE"

    In law, an assignor is a person who "transfers rights or benefits to
    another, the assignee":

    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_(law)>

    ,-<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servel>
    |
    | "Servel was an American manufacturer of heating and cooling appliances,
    | founded in 1922. [...] In 1925, the company bought American rights to a
    | Swedish patent for a continuous absorption refrigerator and started
    | to focus on the gas refrigeration market. [...] In 1939, Servel (then
    | Electrolux-Servel) exhibited its residential gas air conditioner at the
    | New York World's Fair.[3]"

    IOW, Einstein and Szil|ird filed the patent *so that* Electrolux-Servel could use it to build absorption refrigerators based on their invention. In
    return, they received royalty payments from Electrolux-Servel.

    You only think they did, because Electrolux spent money.

    But actually there are all sorts of reasons thinkable, why some company
    would like to give somebody money and declare that as spending for patents.

    So why do you think that Electrolux gave Einstein money?

    Exactly. As usual, Thomas Heger makes a ludicrous claim to make up a conspiracy theory.

    Einstein left the Swiss patent office in 1914. In 1926, the year that
    he and Le|| Szil|ird made the invention, he was at Humboldt University of Berlin. Szil|ird patented it in the US (in both names) in 1930. It was eventually patented in several countries. It is an acknowledged
    improvement on another invention. Electrolux bought the patents for
    $750. Not much came of it: it was obsoleted by the introduction of
    Freon.

    "apparatus for producing refrigeration"

    An apparatus for producing refrigeration is a device or system
    engineered to actively extract heat from a specific, enclosed space or substance and transfer it to a warmer environment, thereby lowering
    the temperature within that enclosed space below the ambient
    temperature. The primary function is to create and maintain a cool or
    cold environment.
    Common examples range from small household refrigerators and air
    conditioning units to large-scale industrial chilling systems used for
    food storage facilities or data centers.

    https://www.google.com/search?q=define++%22apparatus+for+producing+refrigeration%22


    You have to be naive to not know by now that Albert Einstein made
    every effort not to get 'blood on his hands'. Atomic bombs are Top
    Secret then, so he had to disguise his atomic bomb manufacturing
    business.

    But here is another Albert Einstein patent for the 'same design',
    but back then in 1928 he called his patent..."The CHILLER"!!!!

    Notice, if you will... that the VERY first sentence reads:" The
    invention relates to a refrigeration machine..."

    "relates" is the operative word. (having shared characteristics )

    https://patents.google.com/patent/CH140217A/en?inventor=Einstein+Albert&sort=old



    Somebody please, turn on the air conditioner...it's so hot here.
    Maybe I should stick my head inside a refridgerator...
    Dollar Tree has a freezer! CHILLY in here, isn't it?
