William James at CERN Some Examples of Selection in Minds and Computers 1. William James Principles of Psychology This is obviously true of action. Whatever views your views on free will, it is indubitable that differing options occur to us, that we compare them, that we prefer some to others, that eventually we elect one and dismiss the rest. More interestingly, James describes the role of selection in perception, and finds it at every level of neural and mental life. The sense organs, to b

‘The Strangers’ Endures Because of Its Grim Simplicity—and Its Mile-Long Mean Streak

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-13 21:45:09

The Strangers – Chapter 2 is hitting theaters soon, continuing the story from the 2024 reboot. The trailer hints at a hospital stalking tale in the vein of 1982’s Halloween II. But it’s hard to imagine any Strangers take ever topping the 2008 original, a brutal slice of home-invasion agony that suggests even the most ruthless evil can be as simple as it is random. Written and directed by Bryan Bertino, The Strangers is the kind of very-low-budget, high-yield horror flick that studio heads dream

Pierce Brosnan Would Totally Play James Bond Again, Y’Know, if They Asked Him To

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-11-06 02:30:07

It’s inevitable that a new James Bond actor will be announced soon. Denis Villeneuve is directing, Steven Knight is writing, and Amazon is eager to get its big-ticket IP back into theaters. But what if those rumors of a younger star (Jacob Elordi, Harris Dickinson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson… take your pick among the names being tossed around) are just misdirection—and the studio decides to bet on a sure thing, skewing way older than Ian Fleming ever imagined for his signature character? It’s a long

New York Takes Zelle to Court Over Alleged Fraud on the Platform, Claims $1 Billion Lost

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-11-15 03:10:23

Arguably, the entire selling point of Zelle as a platform is that it is owned by big banks that ostensibly are invested in making sure that your money is safe. Turns out security was not the priority that you might imagine, according to New York Attorney General Letitia James. In a lawsuit against the money transfer, the top prosecutor for New York State claims that customers have lost more than $1 billion to fraud on Zelle, which was enabled by a lack of sufficient protections.

What’s the Deal With That Freaky Bald Creature in ‘Superman’?

The Mr. Handsome fan club is growing, so naturally, we want to know more about the freaky Creepypasta-looking slender monster featured in Superman. Director James Gunn didn’t exactly pull from the DC Comics library for this very weird character; though there was a Mr. Handsome villain in Catwoman’s lore, they appear to be unrelated. This Mr. Handsome is a Lex Luthor abomination. It appears in his pocket universe as the driver of his raft through the various rows of toxic curiosities and curatio

Scholars solved a 130-year literary mystery and it hinged on one word

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-28 10:40:52

A medieval literary puzzle which has stumped scholars including M.R. James for 130 years has finally been solved. Cambridge scholars now believe the Song of Wade, a long lost treasure of English culture, was a chivalric romance not a monster-filled epic. The discovery solves the most famous mystery in Chaucer's writings and provides rare evidence of a medieval preacher referencing pop culture in a sermon. The breakthrough, detailed on July 15 in The Review of English Studies, involved working o

Despite Losing Batman and Superman, Nicholas Hoult Knew Lex Luthor Was for Him

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-01-28 22:00:01

The world works in mysterious ways, even the world of comic book casting. Nicholas Hoult has been trying to become a superhero for years. He was one of the actors being considered for the lead role in Matt Reeves’ The Batman and was also considered to play Superman for James Gunn. Of course, neither of those things worked out, but something else worked out that was even better. Hoult ended up as Lex Luthor, and, it turns out, it was a role that was speaking to him all along.

Yes I Will Read Ulysses Yes

news.ycombinator.com Eric Bulson 2026-03-05 22:31:25

When Richard Ellmann’s James Joyce hit the shelves in 1959, the sheer size of the book (842 pages, 100 longer than Ulysses ) was as dazzling as the degree of detail. Joyce, who had been dead for 18 years, vividly inhabited its chapters, getting drunk, going blind, spending money, spiting enemies, cogitating, and, of course, creating a series of works that immediately made literary history. Moving briskly across the first half of the 20th century (not just a single day in Dublin), Ellmann spun a
