False Memories: When Your Brain Rewrites History

from Memory Palace Hosted by Rhythm Studio

This episode investigates the controversial realm of false memories, centered around the groundbreaking research of Elizabeth Loftus and the mechanisms behind memory manipulation. We examine high-profile cases where false memories have influenced legal proceedings and personal histories, while exploring the latest neuroscience research on memory malleability and reconstruction. The hosts analyze how social influence, suggestion, and time can alter our memories, and discuss the implications for eyewitness testimony and therapeutic practices. The episode concludes with practical strategies for maintaining memory accuracy and understanding the constructive nature of memory formation.

In loving memory of James Sr. and James II, until I join you both in Heaven, I will spread the good news. Hardware-Conscious Data Processing (ST 2023) - tele-TASK Prof. Dr. Tilmann Rabl Hardware development continuously advances, with different technologies improving at different pace. While the amount of transistors in a CPU package are growing, the single core performance is stagnating due to physical limitations. These trends require changes in data processing to keep database management systems efficient. In this lecture, we will take a look at current computer architectures and accelerator technologies and how they can be used for efficient data processing. We will cover CPU and memory architecture; the storage hierarchy; modern memory technolgoies, such as NVM and NVMe; fast interconnects, such as Infiniband, RDMA, and NVLink; and accelerators, such as GPUs and FPGAs. The course has a significant practical part, where the students learn to implement data structures and algorithms tailored to hardware concious data processing.
