Reading comments of people who (hyper-) organize their games as if it's a project to get through and they have to work off. And I'm sitting here just playing whatever the fuck I'm in the mood in.

I am not in IT security, but find it fascinating what clever tricks people use to break (into) stuff.
In a better world, we might use this energy for advancing humanity instead of looking how we can hurt each other. (Not saying the author is doing that, just lamenting that ITS is necessary due to hostile actors in this world. )
I'm in robotics and find plenty of use for ML methods. Think of image classifiers, how do you want to approach that without oversimplified problem settings?
Or even in control or coordination problems, which can sometimes become NP-hard. Even though not optimal, ML methods are quite solid in learning patterns of highly dimensional NP hard problem settings, often outperforming hand-crafted conventional suboptimal solvers in computation effort vs solution quality analysis, especially outperforming (asymptotically) optimal solvers time-wise, even though not with optimal solutions (but "good enough" nevertheless). (Ok to be fair suboptimal solvers do that as well, but since ML methods can outperform these, I see it as an attractive middle-ground.)
Some AI researchers found it obvious as well, in terms of they've suspected it and had some indications. But it's good to see more data on this to affirm this assessment.
You mean sense electrical activity of the brain like EEGs?
I highly doubt it. The electrical brain activity is, in terms of voltage, very weak outside of the skull. So tiny, you need specialized sensors. Even those are affected by noise in their measurements.
As far as I know, humans have no sensing organs to directly* perceive voltages, currents or something in that direction. If there would be such a person, that would be a medical sensation and would require scientific confirmation of course.
*Of course we can passively perceive electric currents and voltages. Everyone who has touched an unisolated electrical conductor or has experienced how body hair is moved by a static electrical field (e.g. a loaded balloon) can confirm that. But those are passive phenomena, i.e., our pain receptors respond to the currents going through our body, while we can see our hair moving and feel that via the "touch-receptors" in our skin. But no one has cells to directly measure magnetic fields, or electric ones or an electrical current.
This should not to be confused with synesthesia, which is the other point you've brought up. I.e., the merging of two or more sensations, like "seeing sound" or "hearing colour". Based on my current understanding, while fascinating, this is also not "a new sense", although it can appear as one to those with synesthesia. It's a combination of existing senses which appears to be caused by how the brain wires our neurological sensing pathways. Simply put, atypical simultaneous activation of regions that are responsible for, e.g., seeing and hearing, while in fact only one of those modalities can currently be perceived (either seeing or hearing something).
Regarding the history of synesthesia: you can read up on that on Wikipedia or alike. It's like most other discoveries were made: people investigate and observe. In this case, scientists were investigating human perception and found synesthetics among people via interviews, experiements etc..
It also raises the question whether it's a perfect teleport or one that modifies you. While you might be willing to pull the lever before jumping into the teleport, you might not be afterwards.
"You have a very protective aura, which is a good thing, since it serves as a natural protection and everyone has it. But this also means that I am not on the same kind of energy like you, which is why it is difficult for me."
Said a fortune teller once to my mother, who felt like she was being told bullshit. (Which is true, because fortune tellers and the like are a scam.)
But such people will always find some bullshitty explanation to still save their face.
The elctrical activity in your brain is measurable by electrodes placed on your skull. What we then get is called an electro-encephalogram, short: EEG. Although they rather measure a summation of activity rather than individual neurons. Still, this allows to draw some conclusions and has been widely used in neuromedicine.
For instance, it can help to diagnose epilepsy, or investigate sleep quality. In contexts of the Emotiv, to put it simply, it rather measures levels of concentration than actual thoughts.
But, with sufficient training you can enable such a system to perform a bit more complex tasks, like opening or closing a mechanical hand, driving a wheelchair in a simple mamner, etc.. Although, from my experience, the applications are very limited and unstable.
Stuff like this always reminds me of the personalized ads in Mass Effect (like here: https://youtu.be/hMdIypwM2KI ). That game has accurately depicted the future.
It's wise to not give a fuck about downvotes. They can't hurt you. You can't make it right for everyone. And that's okay. Sometimes you say stuff that agrees with a couple of people. Sometimes you don't. Questions included, as some might see those as a statement. You're free to do the same. Isn't democracy beautiful?
I didn't want to share a recommendation. I saw a post about Seagate and wanted to share my opinion about them.
Do you want a recommendation from me?
Idk, why you're repeating yourself. If you have the option to choose between two products and you know from experience that one of them is useless earlier than the other, then it would be a waste of money to buy the inferior product as you would have to replace it sooner and therefore loose more money.
