Dans cet épisode de DeepTech, Alexandre Bounouh, directeur général du CEA List et président du Réseau Carnot, revient sur le rôle central que joue la recherche publique dans la compétitivité industrielle française. Le CEA List, c'est 1 000 ingénieurs-chercheurs, un budget de 140 millions d'euros, dont seulement 20 millions de subventions publiques, avec un modèle économique fondé sur la contractualisation avec l'industrie. Son fonctionnement, partagé par les 39 instituts labellisés Carnot, s'inspire du modèle allemand des instituts Fraunhofer.Ce réseau, qui regroupe 35 000 chercheurs, génère 600 millions d'euros de contrats annuels et a permis la création de plus de 1 800 start-up depuis 2006. Preuve, selon Alexandre Bounouh, que « l'investissement de l'État dans la recherche publique irrigue efficacement l'innovation privée ».Il alerte toutefois sur le retard français : le financement R&D des entreprises stagne à 1,4 % du PIB, loin des 3 % de l'Allemagne. Pour lui, un changement culturel est nécessaire : « L'innovation ne doit plus être vue comme un centre de coût, mais comme un levier stratégique. » Il défend une recherche tournée vers les usages, tout en anticipant les ruptures à venir. IA post-deep learning, cloud distribué ou encore quantique : le CEA List investit à long terme. « On doit échouer parfois, mais on a le devoir d'essayer. » Un état d'esprit qui continue d'attirer les talents, motivés par le sens des projets et leur impact.

C'est dans cette ville au sud-ouest de la Centrafrique, à Berberati, que l'Agence française de développement (AFD), en partenariat avec un consortium de quatre ONG et le ministère de l'Éducation nationale, a lancé mercredi 19 mars le projet « Éducation pour toutes et tous ». Ce programme vise à donner l'opportunité aux jeunes non scolarisés ou très peu scolarisés de finir leurs études primaires et leur permettre de rattraper leur cursus scolaire. De notre envoyé spécial à Berberati,Il est 10 heures, à l'école d'application préfectorale de Berberati. Ce matin-là, les élèves de CM1 (cours moyen 1) entonnent un chant qui prône les vertus de la discipline scolaire.Un sourire se dessine sur le visage de Caleb, 12 ans. Le jeune garçon est heureux de revenir sur les bancs de l'école : « Je suis content de revenir à l'école après les multiples sensibilisations. J'avais arrêté pour me consacrer aux activités diamantifères, je travaillais pour soutenir ma famille. Maintenant, je dois me concentrer sur l'éducation. »La cour de l'école grouille de monde à cette heure de la journée, contrairement à d'habitude où le silence règne à l'heure des cours. Comme Justine, plusieurs élèves font leur retour après avoir été convaincus du rôle crucial de l'école : « Prenons mon exemple : auparavant, je ne voyais pas l'importance de l'école. Dans notre région, beaucoup de filles sont forcées de se consacrer aux activités ménagères et champêtres sans être payées. Nous avons été sensibilisés par les ONG sur l'importance de l'école comme un levier de développement pour notre localité. »Cinq sous-préfectures de la République Centrafricaine sont concernées par le projet : Berberati, Gamboula, Sosso Nakombo, Dé-dé Mokouba et Carnot. Bruno Foucher, ambassadeur de France en Centrafrique, explique : « C'est un programme important parce qu'il va toucher 21 500 élèves, 50 écoles, tout ceci dans cinq sous-préfectures, et il va durer deux ans. Le coût du programme est de 13 millions d'euros. »À lire aussiCentrafrique: l'école de musique de Bouar continue ses activités malgré un calme précaireFormation des enseignants Treize millions d'euros, soit plus de huit milliards de francs CFA : ce projet est mis en œuvre par les ONG Merci Corps, Alima, Finn Church Aid et l'organisation des femmes centrafricaine (OFCA). Marcel Dyang Damba est le représentant de l'ONG Finn Church Aid. « Les quatre ONG vont procéder à la construction des salles de classe, la réhabilitation également des salles de classe. On aura la construction des forages dans ces écoles, la construction des latrines, la construction et l'appui des centres de santé scolaires pour la prise en charge médicale à travers l'ONG Alima. »Le projet « Éducation pour toutes et tous » prendra également en compte la formation des enseignants et le développement des activités génératrices de revenus.

Le club s'attache à associer écologie, solidarité et conscientisation des élèves sur le monopole des Gafam. Les ordinateurs reconditionnés étaient, à l'origine, à destination des élèves en fracture numérique.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: My Number 1 Epistemology Book Recommendation: Inventing Temperature, published by adamShimi on September 8, 2024 on LessWrong. In my last post, I wrote that no resource out there exactly captured my model of epistemology, which is why I wanted to share a half-baked version of it. But I do have one book which I always recommend to people who want to learn more about epistemology: Inventing Temperature by Hasok Chang. To be very clear, my recommendation is not just to get the good ideas from this book (of which there are many) from a book review or summary - it's to actually read the book, the old-school way, one word at a time. Why? Because this book teaches you the right feel, the right vibe for thinking about epistemology. It punctures the bubble of sterile non-sense that so easily pass for "how science works" in most people's education, such as the "scientific method". And it does so by demonstrating how one actually makes progress in epistemology: by thinking, yes, but also by paying close attention to what actually happened. It works first because the book is steeped in history, here the history of thermometry (the measurement of temperature). By default, beware anything that is only philosophy of science, without any basis in history - this is definitively ungrounded bullshit. Not only is Chang leveraging history, he also has an advantage over most of the literature in History and Philosophy of Science: early thermometry is truly not that complex technically or mathematically. Except for the last historical chapter, where details of the Carnot cycle get in the way, most of the book describes straightforward questions that anyone can understand, and both experiments and mathematics are at a modern high-school level. As such, I know that any educated person can read this book, and follow the history part. Last but not least, thermometry provides a great opportunity to show what happens at the beginning, before all the frames and techniques and epistemic infrastructure is set up. Another source of oversimplification in people's models of epistemology (including my own before I started digging into the history) is that we moderns mostly learn well-framed and cleaned up science: when we learn Classical Mechanics, we don't just learn it as Newton created it, but we benefit from progress in notations, mathematics, and even the whole structure of physics (with the emphasis on energy over forces). This, I surmise, has the unfortunate consequence of making even practicing scientists feel like science and epistemology is cleaner than it truly is. Sure, we get that data is messy, and that there are many pitfalls, but for many, the foundations have been established before, and so they work in a well-defined setting. But at the start of thermometry, as in the start of every epistemological enterprise, there was almost nothing to rely on. For example, if you want to synchronize different temperature measuring devices (not even thermometers yet, because no scale), a natural idea is to find fixed points: phenomena which always happen at the same temperature. But then… if you don't even have a thermometer, how can you know that fixed points are actually fixed? And even if you can do that, what if your tentative fixed points (like the boiling point of water) are not one very specific phenomenon, but a much complex one with multiple phases, over which the temperature does vary? These are the kind of questions you need to deal with when you start from nothing, and Chang explores the ingenuity of the early thermometricians in teasing imperfect answer out of nature, iterating on them, and then fixing the foundations under their feet. That is, they didn't think really hard and get everything right before starting, they started anyway, and through various strategies, schemes and tricks,...

Nice. Février 1978. Deux policiers arrivent au 99 boulevard Carnot. Un immeuble cossu et moderne qui domine la Baie des Anges. Un serrurier, boîte à outils à la main, les attend sur place. Sur le palier du dernier étage, l'artisan perce la serrure de l'appartement et finit par la faire sauter à grands coups de marteau. L'homme reste sur le pas de la porte et laisse passer les deux agents de police. En poussant la porte d'entrée, celle-ci résiste légèrement. En baissant les yeux sur le sol, les agents découvrent un amoncellement de courriers, journaux et enveloppes fermées. Il n'y a personne et tout semble en ordre. Cependant, les plantes sont desséchées. Une fine pellicule de poussière recouvre certains meubles et une forte odeur de renfermé donne à l'appartement une atmosphère étrange. Les enquêteurs comprennent très vite que personne n'a mis les pieds ici depuis un long moment. Ils ouvrent les fenêtres et actionnent le répondeur qui se met à diffuser plusieurs messages, tous plus ou moins semblables : “Agnès tu es là ? Rappelle-moi s'il te plait”, “Agnès c'est Annie, on commence à s'inquiéter à la boutique. Qu'est ce qui se passe ?” , “Tout le monde t'attend pour le repas. Je te rappelle que c'est Noël. Maman commence à s'impatienter”. “Agnès c'est ta mère au téléphone, je m'inquiète pour toi. Où es- tu ?” Les deux hommes font le tour du propriétaire. Les vêtements sont dans la penderie, les produits de beauté dans la salle de bain et les valises sont vides. En survolant le bureau un des inspecteurs remarque, bien en évidence, un message manuscrit pour le moins intrigant pour ne pas dire inquiétant : “Désolé, je dérape. Ici se termine mon chemin. Tout est bien. Agnès. Je désire que Maurice s'occupe de tout” Avec ces mots, commence l'une des plus grandes énigmes judiciaires françaises.

fWotD Episode 2429: French battleship Bouvet Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Friday, 29 December 2023 is French battleship Bouvet.Bouvet was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the French Navy that was built in the 1890s. She was a member of a group of five broadly similar battleships, along with Charles Martel, Jauréguiberry, Carnot, and Masséna, which were ordered in response to the British Royal Sovereign class. Bouvet was the last vessel of the group to be built, and her design was based on that of Charles Martel. Like her half-sisters, she was armed with a main battery of two 305 mm (12 in) guns and two 274 mm (10.8 in) guns in individual turrets. She had a top speed of 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph), which made her one of the fastest battleships in the world at the time. Bouvet proved to be the most successful design of the five, and she was used as the basis for the subsequent Charlemagne class. Nevertheless, she suffered from design flaws that reduced her stability and contributed to her loss in 1915.Bouvet spent the majority of her peacetime career in the Mediterranean Squadron conducting routine training exercises. This period was relatively uneventful, though she was involved in a collision with the battleship Gaulois in 1903 that saw both ships' captains relieved of command. In 1906, she assisted in the response to the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Italy. Bouvet was withdrawn from front-line service in 1907 and thereafter used as part of the training fleet. The ship was the only vessel of her group of five half-sisters still in service at the outbreak of World War I in July 1914.A significant portion of the French Army was stationed in French North Africa, so at the start of the war, Bouvet and much of the rest of the fleet were used to escort troop convoys across to southern France. With this work done by late August, Bouvet and several other battleships were used to patrol for contraband shipments in the central Mediterranean. From November to late December, she was stationed as a guard ship at the northern entrance to the Suez Canal. The ship thereafter joined the naval operations off the Dardanelles, where she participated in a series of attacks on the Ottoman fortifications guarding the straits. These culminated in a major assault on 18 March 1915; during the attack, she was hit approximately eight times by shellfire but was not seriously damaged. While turning to withdraw, she struck a mine and sank within two minutes; only 75 men were rescued from a complement of 718. Two British battleships were also sunk by mines that day, and the disaster convinced the Allies to abandon the naval campaign in favor of an amphibious assault on the Gallipoli Peninsula.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:52 UTC on Friday, 29 December 2023.For the full current version of the article, see French battleship Bouvet on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Kajal Neural.

About the spokesperson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pushkar-limaye-23852455/ Pushkar Limaye is the founder and CTO of Carnot, a full-stack AgriTech platform. He grew up in Mumbai and studied at IIT Bombay, where he gained confidence and leadership skills. Pushkar's interest in engineering was sparked by his involvement in the IIT Bombay racing team, where he realized the importance of practical engineering and leadership. Carnot initially started as a car telematics startup but transitioned to AgriTech after receiving an investment from Mahindra and Mahindra in 2018. Their flagship product, Krishi's Market, is a GPS tracking device that provides transparency in the rental of tractors and helps differentiate between farmland and roads. Pushkar Limaye was raised in a typical Maharashtrian environment in Mumbai and attended a Marathi medium school until his 10th standard. He comes from a family of chartered accountants but decided to pursue engineering and got into IIT Bombay. Joining the IIT Bombay racing team and participating in formula student competitions had a significant impact on Pushkar's life, boosting his confidence and shaping his interest in engineering and leadership. The experience of leading a 60-person team in the racing team made Pushkar realize his enjoyment and aptitude for leadership roles. Inspired by the gap he observed between the engineering standards of his team's car and the best global counterparts, Pushkar aimed to build world-class products in India. A serendipitous incident involving audio signals from a car's electrical system led to the development of analytics for vehicles without built-in sensors. Qualcomm's grant through the Qualcomm Design in India Challenge provided a lifeline for Carnot during a challenging period, enabling them to explore partnerships and investment opportunities. Carnot chose to collaborate with Mahindra due to their belief in telematics as the future of the industry and the potential for distribution within Mahindra's vast ecosystem. Carnot's flagship product, Krishi's Market, is a GPS tracking device that brings transparency to the rental of tractors and helps differentiate between farmland and roads. They have achieved significant scale, with thousands of units deployed in India and Africa.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: What can superintelligent ANI tell us about superintelligent AGI?, published by Ted Sanders on June 12, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. To what extent can humans forecast the impacts of superintelligent AGI? From one point of view, trying to understand superintelligence seems utterly intractable. Just as a dog or chimpanzee has little hope of comprehending the motivations and powers of humans, why should humans have any hope of comprehending the motivations and powers of superintelligence? But from another point of view, forecasting the impacts of superintelligence may yet be possible. The laws of reality that constrain us will similarly constrain any superintelligence. Even if a superintelligence achieves a more refined understanding of physics than us humans, it very likely won't overturn laws already known. Thus, any inventions optimized against those physical laws, even if superior to our own, may end up looking familiar rather than alien. No matter how intelligent an AGI is, it will still be bound by physics. No matter how smart you are, you still must obey the law of conservation of energy. Just like us, an AGI wishing to affect the world will require an energy industry full of equipment to extract energy from natural sources. Just like us, its energy will have to come from somewhere, whether it's the sun (solar, wind, biofuels, fossil fuels, hydro), the Earth (geothermal, nuclear), or the Moon (tidal, nuclear). Just like us, any heat engines will be limited by Carnot efficiency. Just like us, energy will need to be transported from where it is collected to where it is consumed, likely by electromagnetic fields in the presence of bound electrons (e.g., chemical fuels) or unbound electrons (e.g., electricity) or neither (e.g., lasers). If there are economies of scale, as there likely will be, that transportation will take place across networks with fractal network topologies, similar to our electric grids, roads, and pipelines. The physics of energy production are so constrained and so well understood that no matter what a superintelligence might build (even fusion electricity, or superconducting power lines, or wireless power), I suspect it will be something that humans had at least considered, even if our attempts were not as successful. One way to preview superintelligent AGI is to consider the superintelligent narrow AIs humanity has attempted to develop, such as chess AI. Lessons from chess AI: superintelligence is not omnipotence In 2017, DeepMind revealed AlphaZero. In less than 24 hours of (highly parallelized) training, it was able crush Stockfish, the reigning AI world chess champion. AlphaZero was trained entirely de novo, with no learning from human games and no human tuning of chess-specific parameters. AlphaZero is superhuman at chess. AlphaZero is so good at chess that it could defeat all of us combined with ease. Though the experiment has never been done, were we to assemble all the world's chess grandmasters and give them the collective task of coming up with a single move a day to play against AlphaZero, I'd bet my life savings that AlphaZero would win 100 games before the humans won 1. From this point of view, AlphaZero is godlike. Its margin of strength over us is so great that even if the entire world teamed up, it could defeat all of us combined with ease It plays moves so subtle and counterintuitive that they are beyond the comprehension of the world's smartest humans (or at least beyond the tautological comprehension of ‘I guess it wins because the computer says it wins'). ...but on the other hand, pay attention to all the things that didn't happen: AlphaZero's play mostly aligned with human theory—it didn't discover any secret winning shortcuts or counterintuitive openings. AlphaZero rediscovered openings commonly played by humans ...

Since World War II, it has been used to heat and cool structures, but with increased urgency in reducing fossil fuel use, heat pumps are under renewed scrutiny as a low-emission climate control solution. Moving heat with this technology is significantly more energy efficient than electrical resistance heating but is more expensive than natural gas boilers for space heat applications. A wholesale switch to heat pump technology will require government subsidies, carbon taxes, direct regulation or some combination of the three unless some new, lower-cost way to compress the working fluid is discovered. * * *Want to watch this podcast as a video?

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: "Rationalist Discourse" Is Like "Physicist Motors", published by Zack M Davis on February 26, 2023 on LessWrong. Imagine being a student of physics, and coming across a blog post proposing a list of guidelines for "physicist motors"—motor designs informed by the knowledge of physicists, unlike ordinary motors. Even if most of the things on the list seemed like sensible advice to keep in mind when designing a motor, the framing would seem very odd. The laws of physics describe how energy can be converted into work. To the extent that any motor accomplishes anything, it happens within the laws of physics. There are theoretical ideals describing how motors need to work in principle, like the Carnot engine, but you can't actually build an ideal Carnot engine; real-world electric motors or diesel motors or jet engines all have their own idiosyncratic lore depending on the application and the materials at hand; an engineer who worked on one, might not the be best person to work on another. You might appeal to principles of physics to explain why some particular motor is inefficient or poorly-designed, but you would not speak of physicist motors as if that were a distinct category of thing—and if someone did, you might quietly begin to doubt how much they really knew about physics. As a student of rationality, I feel the same way about guidelines for "rationalist discourse." The laws of probability and decision theory describe how information can be converted into optimization power. To the extent that any discourse accomplishes anything, it happens within the laws of rationality. Rob Bensinger proposes "Elements of Rationalist Discourse" as a companion to Duncan Sabien's earlier "Basics of Rationalist Discourse". Most of the things on both lists are, indeed, sensible advice that one might do well to keep in mind when arguing with people, but as Bensinger notes, "Probably this new version also won't match 'the basics' as other people perceive them." But there's a reason for that: a list of guidelines has the wrong type signature for being "the basics". The actual basics are the principles of rationality one would appeal to explain which guidelines are a good idea: principles like how evidence is the systematic correlation between possible states of your observations and possible states of reality, how you need evidence to locate the correct hypothesis in the space of possibilities, how the quality of your conclusion can only be improved by arguments that have the power to change that conclusion. Contemplating these basics, it should be clear that there's just not going to be anything like a unique style of "rationalist discourse", any more than there is a unique "physicist motor." There are theoretical ideals describing how discourse needs to work in principle, like Bayesian reasoners with common priors exchanging probability estimates, but you can't actually build an ideal Bayesian reasoner. Rather, different discourse algorithms (the collective analogue of "cognitive algorithm") leverage the laws of rationality to convert information into optimization in somewhat different ways, depending on the application and the population of interlocutors at hand, much as electric motors and jet engines both leverage the laws of physics to convert energy into work without being identical to each other, and with each requiring their own engineering sub-specialty to design. Or to use another classic metaphor, there's also just not going to be a unique martial art. Boxing and karate and ju-jitsu all have their own idiosyncratic lore adapted to different combat circumstances, and a master of one would easily defeat a novice of the other. One might appeal to the laws of physics and the properties of the human body to explain why some particular martial arts school was not teaching their st...

Pháp : Bảo tồn ký ức lính thợ Đông Dương trong Thế Chiến II

Cách đây 83 năm, con tầu Yang Tsé rời cảng Hải Phòng ngày 12/10/1939 với 1.396 thanh niên Đông Dương bị ép sang Mẫu quốc, gia nhập lực lượng gồm 20.000 lính thợ thuộc địa đầu tiên làm việc trong các nhà máy thuốc súng để chống phát xít Đức. Trong Thế Chiến II, khoảng 1.000 lính thợ Đông Dương được điều đến thành phố Saint-Chamas, miền nam Pháp, nhiều người phải ở lại đến năm 1952. Công lao của họ được thành phố Saint-Chamas và Miramas tổ chức trong buổi lễ ngày 16/10/2022. Thời tiết hôm Chủ Nhật rất đẹp, nắng ấm khiến ông Jacques Lemaire, một người lưu truyền lịch sử thành phố, trong đó có giai đoạn những người lính thợ Đông Dương sống và làm việc, hài lòng. Từ nhiều ngày qua, ông đã chuẩn bị sự kiện quan trọng, gửi giấy mời, chuẩn bị triển lãm ở Thư viện thành phố. Chính ông là người đề xuất với thị trưởng Saint-Chamas gắn bia ghi công những người lính thợ Đông Dương trong Thế Chiến II lên bảo tàng nhỏ trong Công viên Nhà máy thuốc súng Saint-Chamas (La Poudrie nationale de Saint-Chamas) vào năm 2011.   Hy sinh tuổi trẻ để bảo vệ Mẫu quốc  Thị trưởng hai thành phố Saint-Chamas và Miramas, chủ trì sự kiện đón khoảng 150 khách mời để tưởng nhớ công lao những người lính thợ Đông Dương bị ép sang giúp đất nước vẫn tự nhận là “Mẫu quốc”, theo phát biểu của thị trưởng Saint-Chamas :   “Ngày nay, chúng ta chỉ có thể lên án và phẫn nộ về cách đối xử mà người mẹ này dành cho họ. Một người mẹ không dành tình mẫu tử cho những người con vẫn bị gọi là “người bản địa”. Những đứa con đó được lựa chọn trong số những thanh niên khỏe mạnh nhất ở những ngôi làng Đông Dương. Đó là điều kiện cần thiết, như Pierre Daum từng viết, để chống chọi được hành trình bất tận, trong những điều kiện tồi tàn, đến tận thành phố Marseille, nơi khi vừa mới cập bến, họ đã bị đưa đến những khu nhà tạm bợ, như trung tâm Carnot, cách đây không xa.  Phần lớn cuộc sống của họ diễn ra giữa khu nhà trọ và nhà máy thuốc súng. Một nhà máy mà họ chỉ rời đi sau chuỗi ngày đằng đẵng mệt mỏi để hoàn thành những nhiệm vụ nguy hiểm nhất mà chính những huynh đệ bản xứ của họ cố tình thoái thác. Khó có thể hình dung ra được, nhưng họ vẫn có thể tìm được sức mạnh và can đảm đến gặp gỡ người dân địa phương”.  Trong số 150 khách mời, rất nhiều người là con cháu của những người lính thợ ở lại vì không thể trở về quê hương. Nhiều người sau này mới biết được phần nào những gian truân, vất vả, những kì thị, ngược đãi mà cha ông của họ phải hứng chịu trong thời gian dài. Đó là trường hơp của bà Myriam Le Huu, con gái của ông Lê Hữu Thọ, người đầu tiên đi tìm lại công bằng cho những người lính thợ Đông Dương. Phát biểu tại buổi lễ, bà Myriam Le Huu, hiện là chủ tịch Hội MOI - Kí ức những người lính thợ Đông Dương - nhắc lại:   “Lệnh trưng dụng bắt buộc mỗi gia đình Việt Nam, chủ yếu là ở nông thôn, có từ ba con trai trên 18 tuổi, phải cấp ít nhất là một người cho nước Pháp để hỗ trợ chiến tranh bằng cách làm việc trong ngành công nghiệp quốc phòng, đặc biệt là trong các nhà máy sản xuất súng đạn.   Tổng cộng có 14 con tầu chở khoảng 20.000 người Việt Nam từ các cảng ở Việt Nam đến Marseille. Sau hành trình dài 5 tuần, bị dồn trong các khoang chứa hàng được vội bố trí lại, những người đàn ông này khám phá trung tâm tiếp nhận họ được lập trong nhà tù Baumettes mới xây. Từ đó, họ được chia về 24 tỉnh của Pháp. Họ bị dồn vào những khu nhà trọ gần nơi làm việc với tư cách là thợ không có chuyên môn (Ouvrier non spécialisé, ONS) và phải theo nhịp độ rất nặng trong khi trợ cấp lại ít ỏi.   Bị nhốt trong trại, sống trong những dãy nhà cấp bốn, thiếu ăn thiếu mặc, chịu giá lạnh, thời tiết xấu, bệnh tật và nhất là cô đơn sống xa gia đình và quê hương, phải chịu chế độ như bán tự do, kỷ luật nhà binh dù họ không phải là quân nhân, bị đối xử bất công từ phía quản lý, nhiều người trong số họ cảm thấy tuyệt vọng vô cùng. Khoảng 1.000 người qua đời vì bị ngược đãi.   Sau khi Pháp thất bại năm 1940, đa số những người lính thợ này sống ở vùng tự do và họ bị điều đi làm nông, lâm nghiệp hoặc trên các ruộng muối ở miền nam hay những cánh đồng lúa ở vùng Camargue. Từ năm 1942 đến 1944, họ bị đưa trở lại các nhà máy vũ khí và làm việc trực tiếp hoặc gián tiếp cho quân xâm lược phát xít Đức.   Khi thế chiến kết thúc, cuộc chiến giành độc lập bắt đầu ở Đông Dương căng thẳng đến mức tất cả tầu thủy lẽ ra phải chở lính thợ Đông Dương hồi hương đều ưu tiên chở lính Pháp và thiết bị quân sự sang Đông Dương. Sau khi đã bị vắt kiệt sức, những người lính thợ Đông Dương bị bỏ mặc, không được hưởng bất kỳ quy chế nào từ Nhà nước Pháp. Khoảng 16.000 người đã không về được nhà và sau hơn 10 năm, thậm chí là 13 năm sống chờ đợi, khoảng 2.000 đến 3.000 người đã ở lại Pháp, lập gia đình, sinh con mà chúng tôi là hậu duệ. Câu chuyện về những người lính thợ bị cưỡng ép sang Pháp bị chôn vùi trong thời gian dài vì những người cha của chúng tôi ít khi nhắc lại chuyện cũ”.  Chôn vùi thương đau để bắt đầu cuộc sống mới  Chuyện cũ của những người ông, người cha đó, là những đau thương và đấu tranh mà có lẽ họ không muốn con cháu cùng chịu đựng. Cũng có lẽ vì thế mà phải chờ đến hơn 70 năm sau, năm 2014, công sức của họ, kể cả sự thật về kỹ thuật trồng lúa nước ở vùng Camargue, mới dần được nhắc đến, nhờ công của nhiều sử gia, nhà nghiên cứu (Brigitte Sabattini, Liêm-Khê Lugern…), nhà báo (Pierre Daum) và nhất là chính thế hệ con cháu của họ (Myriam Le Hữu, anh em họ Trịnh). Ngay cả thị trưởng Miramas cũng chỉ biết đến số phận bi thương của những người lính thợ Đông Dương sau một lần trao đổi với ông Jacques Lemaire. Ông phát biểu trong buổi lễ :   “Những người đã trải qua đau thương nặng nề đều khó kể lại cho thế hệ trẻ chuyện đã xảy ra. Họ bảo vệ thế hệ trẻ. Nhưng tiếc là khi làm như vậy, câu chuyện của họ bị chìm trong lãng quên. Tôi mừng vì Miramas và Saint-Chamas phối hợp tổ chức sự kiện này từ nhiều năm nay vì buổi lễ nhắc lại trang sử này với tất cả người dân trong vùng.  Điều quan trọng đối với tôi, đó là nước Cộng hòa đầy mạnh mẽ. Khi nước Cộng hòa thừa nhận những thời khắc u tối, một số người lại nghĩ điều đó làm suy yếu nền Cộng hòa chúng ta. Trái lại, khi nói về những đau thương, sai lầm, thì lại càng thúc đẩy chúng ta để không bao giờ xảy ra chuyện tương tự, đồng thời cũng để tưởng nhớ những người đã giúp giải phóng nước Pháp. Họ như bị giam lỏng, nhưng họ đã giúp giải phóng đất nước chúng ta. Đó chính là sức mạnh của lịch sử. Điều làm tôi vô cùng xúc động là chuyện diễn ra ngay sát chúng ta, xung quanh chúng ta, ngay cả những người bên cạnh tôi mà trước đó tôi không biết họ là con cháu lính thợ Đông Dương”.   Chung tay bảo tồn ký ức lịch sử  Ngày 16/10/2011, tấm bia tưởng niệm 1.000 lính thợ Đông Dương làm việc trong Nhà máy thuốc súng Saint-Chamas được gắn trên bảo tàng nhỏ trong công viên mang tên nhà máy trước đây. Thời điểm đó có 8 người lính thợ đến dự. Năm 2022, chỉ còn lại một nhân chứng, đã 103 tuổi, không thể đến dự buổi lễ. Ký ức về những người lính thợ cần được bảo tồn, và được thị trưởng Saint-Chamas ví với việc không để bức ảnh người lính thợ được trưng bày tại sự kiện bị “ố vàng” và nhất là không để hình ảnh đó “bị phai mờ”, phải “bảo tồn nơi tưởng niệm Nhà máy thuốc súng với những tòa nhà vẫn còn vẳng tiếng nói, tiếng kêu của những người đã góp phần để nước Pháp trở thành một đất nước tự do”.  Đối với ông Jacques Lemaire, người vẫn miệt mài đi tìm và lưu lại ký ức của lính thợ Đông Dương, chính sự thờ ơ của nhiều người mới là điều đáng sợ, trong khi các nhân chứng lịch sử lần lượt ra đi :   “Tiếc là một phần dân chúng không hề cảm thấy quan tâm khi nói rằng thời đó đã qua và những người Đông Dương đã về nhà họ. Nhưng thực ra không đúng, vì có nhiều người đã tìm được tình yêu, sau đó lập gia đình ở đây và có nhiều con cháu.   Tôi chọn ngày Chủ Nhật thứ ba của tháng 10 hàng năm để tổ chức tưởng niệm ở Nhà máy thuốc súng là vì con tầu đầu tiên, tầu Yang Tsé, xuất phát từ Hải Phòng ngày 12/10/1939 chở những người sau này làm lính thợ đến Pháp. Lý do chọn ngày Chủ Nhật là để mọi người có thể đến dự. Lễ tưởng niệm thường diễn ra vào Chủ Nhật thứ ba của tháng 10 hàng năm".   Nhiều công trình, bia ghi công những người lính thợ Đông Dương trong Thế Chiến II đã được dựng ở một số thành phố miền nam Pháp, như Sorgues, Salin-de-Giraud, Bergerac, Montpellier nhưng theo thị trưởng Miramas, điều quan trọng là phải luôn ôn lại lịch sử và chống quên lãng để chuẩn bị tương lai cho những thế hệ sau.  Một số hiệp hội hoặc đơn thuần chỉ là một nhóm những nhà nghiên cứu vẫn tiếp tục công việc bảo tồn ký ức của những thanh niên bị đẩy sang bảo vệ Mẫu quốc, qua những công trình nghiên cứu, luận văn tiến sĩ, sách báo, phim ảnh, truyện tranh, triển lãm…  Cuối cùng, bà Myriam Le Huu, chủ tịch Hội MOI được anh em nhà Trịnh thành lập năm 2011, hy vọng “một ngày những người lính thợ Đông Dương này sẽ được vinh danh trên quê hương của họ. Đó là công việc mà anh em họ Trịnh đang theo đuổi. Lịch sử vẫn tiến bước”.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: [Book Review] "The Most Powerful Idea in the World" by William Rosen, published by lsusr on December 23, 2021 on LessWrong. The first nuclear bomb had a immediate impact on world affairs. The first steam engine did not. It took decades for the steam engine to transform civilization. Why? Because of math. The engineers at the Manhattan Project built a working nuclear device on their first try because they ran careful calculations. For example, they knew the atomic weights of different isotopes. By measuring the energy and velocity of different decay products and plugging them into E=√p2c2+m20c4 you can calculate the theoretical maximum yield of a nuclear weapon. The limiting factor in going nuclear is (and always has been) uranium[1] and industrial capacity, not technical know-how. The first commercial steam engine was invented in 1698 by Thomas Savery but the Carnot cycle wasn't proposed by Sadi Carnot until 1824 and the ideal gas law wasn't discovered until 1856. Imagine building a steam engine 126 years before the discovery of the Carnot cycle. That's like building a nuclear reactor 126 years before E=mc2. It's like building a nuclear reactor with Benjamin Franklin's knowledge of physics. The early steampunks did not have statistical mechanics in their toolbox. They built their machines first. The science came afterward. The earliest steam engines were extremely inefficient compared to the earliest atomic bombs because they were developed mostly through trial-and-error instead of computing the optimal design mathematically from first principles. Coal Mines Mining was a big industry in eighteenth-century England. "Three-quarters of the patents for invention granted prior to the Savery engine [a steam pump] were, one way or another, mining innovations; 15 percent of the total were for drainage alone, as the shortage of surface coal became more and more acute and prices rose." Water flows downward. Mines are underground. The deeper you dig your mine, the more likely you are to hit the water table. A mine full of water is unusable. A mine must be dry before you can send a miner down with his pickaxe. Pumping water via animal power is expensive compared to coal pumps. "In 1742, a study was made of a 240-foot-deep coal mine in northeast England in which a horse-driven pump lifted just over 67,000 gallons every twenty-four shillings, while Newcomen's engine pumped more than 250,000 gallons using twenty shillings' of coal—a demonstration not only of the value of the engine, but a newfound enthusiasm for cost accounting." I am skeptical of author William Rosen's implication that there was anything "newfound" about cost accounting in the eighteenth century. Double-book accounting was invented in Italy in the thirteenth century. Entrepreneurship is thousands of years old. But putting steam engines next to coal mines does make economic sense. Steam engines (especially the early inefficient ones) require lots of coal. Coal is expensive to transport because locomotives haven't been invented yet. Even if 75% of the coal you mine goes into feeding your coal-powered water pump, the remaining 25% of coal is coal you wouldn't have at all if it weren't for the steam engine. "The coal-fired atmospheric engines designed by Newcomen and Calley burned so much coal for the amount of water pumped that the only cost-effective place for their use was at the coal mine itself.because the cost of transporting the coal to a steam engine more than a few hundred yards from the mine itself ate up any savings the engine offered." Iron Smelters To build steam engines, you need iron. Iron ore is common. It's more than five percent of the Earth's crust. But the iron in the Earth is iron oxide i.e. rust. To make iron oxide useful, you need to remove the oxygen. You can remove the oxygen from iron oxide b...
