    Dyson Spheres by 2040? with Prof. Jason Wright

    Penn State astronomer Jason Wright discusses Dyson sphere detection, why building one in 50 years is physically impossible, and the search for alien technosignatures across 100,000 galaxies. Bio: Jason T. Wright is a professor of astronomy and astrophysics at Penn State University and director of the Penn State Extraterrestrial Intelligence (PSETI) Center . His research focuses on the search for alien technosignatures – especially the telltale waste heat from hypothetical Dyson spheres (megastructures built around stars to capture their energy). Wright led pioneering surveys using NASA’s WISE space telescope to hunt for mid-infrared excess emission from Dyson sphere-like structures . He is also known for his work on peculiar astronomical objects such as “Tabby’s Star,” helping show its strange dimming was due to dust rather than an “alien megastructure” . In addition to SETI, Wright studies exoplanets and stellar astrophysics, and he has been a vocal advocate for integrating technosignature searches into mainstream astronomy . - FOLLOW ON X: @8teAPi (Ate) @Astro_Wright (Jason) @TurpentineMedia -- LINKS: Website: https://sites.psu.edu/astrowright/ -- TIMESTAMPS: (00:00) Intro (03:26) What is a Dyson Sphere?

    Dopamine Optimization vs Human Flourishing with Michal Kovařík, Factorio

    Explore game development philosophy and AI's evolving impact through Factorio creator Michal Kovařík's insights on AlphaGo's transformation of Go, current programming limitations, and the future of human-AI collaboration. Bio: Michal Kovařík is a Czech game developer best known as the co-founder and creative head of Wube Software, the studio behind the global indie hit Factorio. Under his online alias “kovarex,” Kovařík began the Factorio project in 2012 with a vision to blend his favorite game elements – trains, base-building, logistics, and automation – into a new kind of construction & management simulation. Initially funded via a modest Indiegogo campaign, Factorio blossomed from a garage project into one of Steam’s top-rated games, praised for its deep automation gameplay and technical excellence. Kovařík guided Factorio through an 8-year development in open alpha/early access, cultivating a passionate player community through regular “Friday Facts” blog updates. By 2024, Factorio had sold over 4 million copies worldwide, all without ever going on sale.Michal now leads a team of ~30 in Prague, renowned for their principled business approach (no discounts, no DRM) and fan-centric development style, and he’s just launched Factorio’s Space Age expansion.
