Oh I get it, he's against creationism (no doubt that described in the Bible, not any other religious texts), so therefore he's the "smartest man". More anti-Christian bloviation from a site that really seems to feed of it more and more these days. Way to go tolerance!!

Did you miss the part where OP said it's his own personal opinion? What was that about tolerance? Yeah...

It's just astounding that you sit there saying this is anti-Christian. Who's fault is it that the facts about our universe are not consistent with Christianity?

I would not want to live in that world that he is talking about. Even though he may be right.

Anti-creationism != anti-Christian.

I for one do not want to live in a world where creationism is an acceptable scientific theory. It's not.

It's not anti-Christian to call creationism absurd. Pope John Paul II is on record as saying that evolution does not contradict the Bible. As for tolerance, it shouldn't be used to allow ignorance to flourish. There is no evidence to support creationism and it should rightfully be treated with disdain.

More focus on the "stop passing on your beliefs to your children" and less on the "religion is faulty". And I am not anti-christian in any way, but you should look at these things objectively.

You'd think that a smart scientist would be more open minded towards alternate theories, but sadly it's not true, science is as closed minded as they claim Theists are

Creationism isn't a scientific theory. He is open minded. Remember, theory != scientific theory.

That would be true if Creationism was a legitimate theory, but it's not. It's nonsense.

He is open minded, he is just saying that it would be more effective to work with what is better supported rather than by something that has barely any backing. And if we do work with it, we may even come across the discovery of it not being true, but then we will have that as another piece of knowledge to work with.

Ah, so you must be the representative from the general population. Thanks for voicing your opinion.

The who? I don't represent a damn person other than myself. Unfortunately though, as others have discussed, I have very little open mindedness for the invisible man floating in the sky theory. Once someone even has the slightest shred of proof and not this "some random people heard voices in their head from the invisible man and wrote it down to get the scared general public to follow them like a cult", then maybe I'll be a little more open minded.

That's like saying I'm not open minded that a piece of toast can sprout wings and fly off my plate. But hey, if I wrote it in a book I could call you closed minded for not believing me! Both theories are on the same level of ridiculousness.

Edit: Man, I've gotten really cynical as I've gotten older. :laugh:

He lost my interest after saying the US invented the internet

To be fair, the US did contribute a lot to the creation of the internet, although overall it was a combination of effort from many nations.

I presume you're talking about the world wide web, which Sir Tim created :).

Internet > WWW

This is Neowin and we have to go over this still?

As we had a recent thread about Memes I thought Id make one of my own in regard to his overly boastful comment about the US and its overty evervesent effect on the world.He got off to a bad start and went downhill from there.

That's rich coming from someone so closed minded that you have to twist the notion of not accepting an idea that doesn't fit into any aspect of science as the one being the closed minded one.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
    • Qualcomm takes on NVIDIA with new Dragonfly CPU and AI chips by Pradeep Viswanathan Microsoft, Google, Amazon, AMD, Meta, Apple, OpenAI, and several others have been developing their own chips for AI infrastructure. However, NVIDIA still remains the dominant player in the market. Today, Qualcomm announced a major expansion of its data center infrastructure portfolio to better compete with NVIDIA. The new lineup includes the Qualcomm Dragonfly C1000 CPU, Qualcomm High Bandwidth Compute technology, the Dragonfly AI300 inference accelerator, new connectivity products, and custom silicon solutions. Qualcomm claims that this new lineup improves performance per watt, token throughput, and total cost of ownership for AI data centers. The Dragonfly C1000 is a new data center CPU built with Qualcomm’s custom Oryon cores. This chip will feature more than 250 cores, frequencies above 5GHz, and a chiplet-based design. Qualcomm claims that this new C1000 can deliver more than 2x better performance per watt compared to existing server CPU offerings based on specifications. The Dragonfly C1000 will support PCIe Gen 7 with more than 2TB/s of connectivity, along with CXL, advanced RAS features, and both air and liquid cooling. Qualcomm expects the Dragonfly C1000 to be commercially available in 2028. Additionally, Qualcomm and Meta announced a multi-year, multi-generation agreement under which Qualcomm will supply Dragonfly C1000 data center CPUs for Meta’s next-generation server fleet. Qualcomm also announced High Bandwidth Compute, a new near-memory computing architecture designed to address AI’s memory bandwidth bottleneck. HBC Gen 1 will debut with the Dragonfly AI250, which is expected to sample in mid-2027. The AI250 will deliver 133TB/s per card, an 18x increase in effective memory bandwidth compared to the AI200 with LPDDR5X. The new Dragonfly AI300 with HBC Gen 2 is a rack-level AI inference platform from Qualcomm. Qualcomm claims that the AI300 can deliver 4x to 8x better performance per watt compared to existing GPU-based architectures based on memory bandwidth per watt per card. The Dragonfly AI300 is expected to be available in 2028.
