How to read and understand a scientific paper: a guide for non-scientists
"Update (1/3/18) I’ve been overwhelmed with requests for the shorter guide, and the email address below no longer works."
Wie viel Naturwissenschaft braucht die Zukunft?

A Computer Art Exhibit At MoMA Shows How Artists Grappled With Artificial Intelligence Before Google
"Early in her career, Vera Molnár made paintings that might be mistaken at first glance for artworks by Kasimir Malevich or Piet Mondrian. Working in midcentury Paris, Molnár was inspired by both iconic modernists, and by many others, but the works she created were neither copies nor tributes. Molnár sought nothing less than to take over for the dead masters, continuing their oeuvres posthumously."
