Original Article - https://www.rt.com/shows/sophieco-visionaries/550479-sex-love-evolution-value/ Cultures all over the world glorify love as the greatest creative power. But it also has the greatest evolutionary value. We talked about this with Dr. David Buss, professor of psychology at the University of Texas. Follow @SophieCo_RT   Instagram Sophieco.visionaries Telegram https://t.me/sophiecovisionaries Podcast https://soundcloud.com/rttv/sets/sophieco-visionaries-1 Sophie Shevardnadze: Dr. David Buss, professor of psychology at the University of Texas, great to have you with us.  David Buss: Great to be here.   SS: All right, so what a topic to talk about. One of your books is called ‘The Evolution of Desire’. Human mind has evolved in the course of human history and continues to evolve, as well as our values. But what you call ‘desire’ basically describes our most ancient and core feature, the drive to procreate, which as I understand hasn't really chan...

We talk to Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor Gerard ‘t Hooft Follow @SophieCo_RT Instagram Sophieco.visionaries Telegram https://t.me/sophiecovisionaries Podcast https://soundcloud.com/rttv/sets/sophieco-visionaries-1 Sophie Shevardnadze: Professor ‘t Hooft, thank you very much for agreeing to talk to us. Gerard ‘t Hooft: That's my pleasure. SS: We did an interview but we couldn't see each other because it was over the satellite. So I'm very glad that we're able to do this live and in person. Last time, we were speaking about black holes. This time, since we're meeting face to face, I thought I would ask you all the big questions –  GH: Good. SS: – because I don...

  You probably don’t need telling that   Android   is a very   powerful and versatile  Operating System   but   Google   is working on something else which may well end up being   a direct replacement .      So before we get into it a quick note on  kernels . Computer  Kernels  are the core of the operating system. They provide the basic mechanism around which the  Operating System (OS)  can be built and a lot of  Androids’ main problems  come from the fact that it is based off the line of the kernel, which was not originally intended for phones. In fact,  Android  the software itself was built initially for  digital cameras. S o from its very core, it isn’t exactly specialized for what a phone it needs to do, so what about  Fuchsia.      Well,  this OS  will base off a completely  new kernel  with two key benefits. It is designed with the...

 Chinese scientists have unveiled next-generation wearable tech in the form of flexible, breathable electronic fabric which serves as a wearable, washable, interactive display, with diverse applications from telecoms to medicine. Polymer scientists Peining Chen and Huisheng Peng at Fudan University in Shanghai achieved the remarkable feat by weaving electrically conductive transparent fibers and luminescent threads together with cotton yarn.  This intricate yet flexible framework could form the basis for ‘smart clothing’ to accompany the already largely ubiquitous smartphones and smart watches seen around the developed world today. The researchers produced a sheet of woven ‘smart’ fabric 20 feet long by 10 inches wide which can serve as a fabric display comprising roughly half a million pixels, one for each point of overlap between each of the different thread types.  Their wearable displays are reportedly about as bright as the average flat-screen TV and their performanc...

Although the first prime minister of India Jawahar Lal Nehru was a self-proclaimed socialist-inspired during the days of the country’s freedom struggle by the transformation of the Soviet Union under a Marxist government, this did not ensure a close and cordial relationship with the USSR after independence. Stalin continued to view Nehru as a leader under the influence of the British and, the policy of non-alignment pursued by India also caused apprehensions in his mind. It was only after his death that there was a thaw in bilateral relations and a period of multi-dimensional economic and technical cooperation began when Khrushchev became the supreme leader. The USSR stepped in when the Western countries refused or were reluctant to help India with its economic development. The first steel plants (Bhilai), chemical fertiliser factories (Sindri), Heavy Engineering establishment (Haridwar and Bhopal) and units to produce life-saving drugs and vaccines (IDPL in Rishikesh) were set up with...

Russophobia in the West has long been enabled by once-Soviet immigrants, who needed constant reinforcement of their justification for emigrating: they hated the place they left behind, and embraced the one in which they arrived. Today’s Russians travel and live all over the world, but they remain connected to their homeland. They refuse to “take sides” against Russia, and instead become the targets of Russophobia themselves. For years, émigrés were the main source of the most prevalent anti-Soviet, and then anti-Russian, myths. Emigration from the Soviet Union was one-way. On exit, you were stripped of your Soviet citizenship, and lost all meaningful contact with friends and family that remained behind. Whatever real memories you did have of the place were subject to constant conditioning and adjustment - be it through the recitation of the facts in your own asylum application, or absorption of the stereotypes that already existed in the place where you arrived. The fact that most emig...

Azerbaijan has become Turkey’s major gas supplier and this could have major geopolitical ramifications for the region. But it also fits into Turkey’s efforts of the past several years to diminish its dependence on Russian gas. Hence Ankara’s particularly harsh position regarding the recent Armenia-Azerbaijan fighting in the Tovuz region where regional gas, oil and railway infrastructure runs. From January-May of this year, Turkey imported 4 527,39 cubic meters of Azerbaijani gas (from Shah Deniz field). This is some 20,4 percent more in comparison to the same period of 2019. On the other hand, in May 2020 the import from Russia diminished by almost 62% compared to the same month in 2019. In May 2020, Azerbaijan officially became Turkey’s top gas supplier. Overall this is a continuation of the trend from 2019 when Azerbaijan’s share in Turkey’s gas supplies reached 21.2 percent, which is some 6.23 percent more compared to the same period of 2018. This became possible after the launch of...
