“The Simulation Hypothesis: Are We Living in a Computer Simulation? A Thought-provoking Exploration of the Simulation Argument” by Mark Whelan

The Simulation argument, proposed by philosopher Nick Bostrom in 2003, is a thought experiment that suggests that it is possible that our reality is actually a computer simulation. According to Bostrom, one of the following three statements must be true: Almost all civilizations at our level of technological development go extinct before they are able to […]

“Securing the Future with Quantum Cryptography: Unbreakable Security for the Digital Age” by Mark Whelan

Quantum cryptography is a field of study that uses the principles of quantum mechanics to develop secure communication systems. Quantum cryptography relies on the principles of quantum mechanics, such as superposition and entanglement, to create secure communication channels that are resistant to hacking and interception. One of the key features of quantum cryptography is that […]
