Commentary: Can we co-exist with PMDs? Yes, but we need to take a different path
Science Daily published research by Science, Mathematics and Technology cluster Assistant Prof Cheong Kang Hao on the Parrondo effect across biology
糖心Vlogrchers study the pivotal role that Parrondo鈥檚 paradox plays in the shaping of living systems and its potential identity as a universal principle underlying biological diversity and persistence.
Inspired by the flashing Brownian ratchet, Parrondo鈥檚 paradox is a counter-intuitive phenomenon in which two losing games, when played in a specific order, can surprisingly end up winning. For example, slot machines are designed to ensure that players lose in the long run. 鈥淲hat the paradox says is that there might be slot machines which are subtly linked in such a way that playing either slot machine independently will lead to financial disaster, but switching in between them will eventually leave the player richer than before,鈥 said senior author, Assistant Professor Kang Hao Cheong of the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD).

Why depicting 'brownface' characters is no joke
Fundamentally, such stereotypes are exercises in reductionism and diminution. Not only did the Nets ad use skin colour as an expedient shorthand for our ethnic minority groups, but it also implied that minorities cannot represent themselves…
