When You’re Too Sure Of Your Code

Nikola Tesla once paid an overdue hotel bill with a ‘working model’ of his ‘death beam’. He warned the staff never to open it, describing it as a war-ending particle weapon that could stop invading armies and make warfare pointless. 

After his death in 1943, someone finally pried the box open and found nothing but a bunch of harmless old electrical components.

How To Code: Insertion Sort in C language

Insertion sort is a basic algorithm for sorting elements in an array or list. Insertion sort works by grabbing one element and comparing to the element next to it. If the element is larger than its neighbor, then the element is left in its original position. If the element is smaller than its neighbor, than it compares it to the other previous elements to find a suitable position. Then all larger values are shifted up a space and the element is inserted into the correct position.

Output:

Sorted Array array:[17][26][36][48][52]

Artificial intelligence bot trained to recognize galaxies

Researchers have taught an artificial intelligence program used to recognize faces on Facebook to identify galaxies in deep space.

The result is an AI bot named ClaRAN that scans images taken by radio telescopes.

Its job is to spot radio galaxies – galaxies that emit powerful radio jets from supermassive black holes at their centers.

Aurora Australis : Not fireworks, these intense shimmering lights still danced across Earth’s night skies late last month, seen here above the planet’s geographic south pole. The stunning auroral displays were triggered as a coronal mass ejection blasted from the Sun days earlier impacted the magnetosphere, beginning a widespread geomagnetic storm. The six fisheye panels were recorded with digital camera and battery in a heated box to guard against -90 degree F ambient temperatures of the long winter night. Around the horizon are south pole astronomical observatories, while beyond the Aurora Australis stretch the stars of the southern Milky Way. via NASA
