The Predynastic Kings and The Pyramids of Egypt.

 

My new book The Predynastic Kings and The Pyramids of Egypt - Mohammad Hasan Algarhy is now available on Amazon. Here

The body of knowledge that was used by the Ancient Egyptians to build the pyramids and their whole civilization has not been discovered yet. It is usually referred to as highly advanced and sophisticated science or knowledge that to date, we are not able to decode.

Well, not anymore.

It`s about time to start understanding what could have been this body of knowledge and the scientific infrastructure of the Ancient Egyptian Civilization. This book is providing an attempt to have a basic understanding of the science behind the pyramids and the Ancient Egyptian Civilization, based on a multidisciplinary approach backed up by actual measurements, and validations.

In this book, I`ve developed a method to get the estimated inauguration dates of the Predynastic kings that we know of. I validated this method using four different approaches, and every time I get similar results. The results are aligned as well with other historical events and archeological evidence.

The book is providing an explicit analysis and strong evidence that the story of Atlantis is referring to Ancient Egypt during one of the Predynastic eras before 8,780 BC. And that the Atlanteans are the Ancient Egyptians of the Predynastic Era (The AEPEs), who lived in Egypt before that date, and built the impressive Ancient Egyptian Predynastic Civilization. The book highlights the inscriptions on the Edfu temple and their connection to the story of Atlantis.

The Serapeum of Saqqara is covered as well, with a new hypothesis that the Serapeum boxes were colliders, and data storage devices used by the Ancient Egyptians of the Predynastic Era (AEPEs), to understand the forces of nature, and document their legacy.

The Hawara Labyrinth was described by Herodotus -after physically visiting it- as “The structure that surpassed the greatness of the Egyptian pyramids”. The Hawara Labyrinth is now buried under at least 12 meters of sand in front of the Hawara Pyramid. The book highlights interesting facts and findings about the Hawara Labyrinth. 

Threads and Meta`s smart strategy - It`s not just a copy of Twitter!!

 Written by: Hasan Algarhy

Threads is approaching 100M sign-ups in less than a week. Historical and exceptional!!

Here is the catch that nobody is talking about:

THE FEDIVERSE!!

When you sign up to Threads it mentions that future versions of Threads will work with “The Fediverse”, a new type of social media network that allows people to follow and interact with each other on different platforms. And when you go to the Learn More link, it tells you about the fediverse including the vision of enabling users to communicate with people on other fediverse platforms that they do not own or control, and that “the servers on the fediverse are distributed and decentralized.”

In my opinion, Meta responded to the resistance to change towards a highly beneficial evolution of the internet (AKA its Metaverse project) in an extremely smart way, by building an onramp towards web3, getting traction with a familiar social media platform and then gradually shifting towards a distributed and decentralized ecosystem. The first step has proven an overwhelming success.

This is the same approach I have been calling the Web 3 community to follow since we started Duverse, and that is exactly what we are doing at Duverse with the exception that we cannot get 100M sign-ups in less than a week :), but we can still do a lot.

Why Creativity is More Important Than Ever in the Age of AI

Why Creativity is More Important Than Ever in the Age of AI

As automation and artificial intelligence continue to transform the workforce, there is growing concern about the impact of these technologies on jobs. While some argue that AI will create new jobs and spur economic growth, others predict that millions of workers will be displaced by automation.

In the face of this uncertainty, it is becoming increasingly clear that human creativity will be more important than ever before. As machines take over routine and repetitive tasks, human workers will need to focus on areas where they can add unique value - namely, in the realm of creativity.

But what is creativity, and how can it help us navigate this new age of automation and AI? At its core, creativity is the ability to generate new ideas, connections, and solutions that are not immediately obvious or predictable. And one of the key ingredients of creativity is chaos.

Chaos is the force that disrupts our routines, challenges our assumptions, and opens up new possibilities. It is the unexpected, the unpredictable, and the uncontrollable. And while chaos can be uncomfortable and even frightening, it is also the fertile ground from which creativity springs and it is the element that differentiates the thinking process of humans from the generative and predictive process of AI.

When we are confronted with chaos - whether it's a new challenge at work, a personal crisis, or a major shift in the economy - our brains are forced to adapt and think in new ways. We are forced to break out of our old patterns and explore new possibilities. And it is this exploration that can lead to new ideas, connections, and solutions.

Of course, chaos alone is not enough to drive creativity. We also need the right mindset and the right skills. We need to be open to new experiences and perspectives, willing to take risks and experiment, and able to connect seemingly unrelated ideas and concepts.

Through creativity, we can tap into a wellspring of innovation and resilience that will serve us well in the age of AI. Whether we are developing new technologies, solving complex problems, or creating works of art and culture.

In conclusion, while the rise of AI and automation will undoubtedly bring significant changes to the workforce, it is important to remember that human creativity will always be a valuable and irreplaceable asset. By embracing creativity and cultivating our creative thinking skills, we can harness the power of innovation and resilience, and ensure that we continue to thrive and succeed in the face of the unknown.

Bricks and mortarless education

The Bricks and mortarless education is an approach to delivering education without the need for a school building. It is different from remote education, as students are still able to meet, interact and socialize but not necessarily in a dedicated school building. The Bricks and mortarless approach mainly focus on delivering education through the Metaverse and its technologies including VR/AR/XR/MR/AI/Machine learning and others. 

One of the key advantages of Bricks and mortarless education is that it allows delivering education to hundreds of millions of out-of-school children globally while saving the initial and running cost of having a school building.

Here are ten reasons to adopt Bricks and mortarless education:

1. Saving huge costs, resources, and energy that go into the construction of the school building.

2. Delivering education to millions of out-of-school children globally.

3. Being able -as a school and an education provider- to deliver your services to a much wider audience globally.

4. Utilizing the power of the Metaverse and artificial intelligence to enhance the educational experience.

5. Engaging the students in an immersive and interactive educational experience.

6. Reducing the carbon footprint and the greenhouse gas emissions of the schools.

7. Saving the running and operational costs of the schools.

8. Creating more job opportunities for the Bricks and mortarless education developers and specialists.

9. Utilizing the potential of the teachers more effectively.

10. Being able to tailor the educational experiences to the needs, set of skills, and development requirements of each student. 

The Bricks and mortarless education was first introduced by Hasan Algarhy and Duverse in March 2023.

Duverse introduces the concept of franchising on the Metaverse

Duverse introduces the concept of franchising on the Metaverse which is different from launching your restaurant on the Metaverse.

 As you are franchising your physical restaurants, you can franchise your Metaverse restaurant as well to different companies at different locations.

 The companies that will get your franchise on the Metaverse, could start the Metaverse restaurant with a much lower investment than the physical restaurant and start operating faster and at a lower cost.

 This will help your brand expand significantly in more geographical locations and cater to a much wider audience.

 And since there should be an added value to the franchise on the Metaverse.

Duverse works with BRANDS to develop their "Metaverse Franchise Handbook” and define the standards and guidelines to franchise on the Metaverse, which would be different from the physical franchise handbook. As the Metaverse franchise would include guidelines for the VR experience, the gamification approach, the Metaverse loyalty and play-to-earn concepts, and many other Metaverse aspects. 

The Metaverse is an innovation lab for architects and interior designers

The Metaverse for architects and designers acts as their innovation lab where they can unleash their creativity and bring what applies to our physical world. The idea of creativity flowing from the digital world to the physical world opens many opportunities.

We should create more #Metavtwins so that instead of exporting our physical world inefficiencies to the Metaverse we import the creativity of the Metaverse to our physical world.

The Metaverse can serve as the rebirth for architecture which in recent years reached a certain extent of a plateau, helping architects to envision and transform this new technology into a new movement that will inspire this generation and the generations to come.

Would Apple go for a "closed Metaverse" ?

In the history of computing and technology, competition has always been between an open system and a closed system. So, for laptops and computers, Microsoft represents the open system and Apple represents the closed system. As for mobile phones, Android would be an example of an open system and Apple would be a closed system as well. One could argue which system is better and which system is more popular.

When it comes to the Metaverse and its utilities in industry and all other sectors an open system is highly inevitable as interoperability and decentralization are within the DNA of the Metaverse. An open system is what Meta is advocating and building the infrastructure for along with hundreds if not thousands of other Metaverse platforms around the world. While Apple`s plans are not entirely clear yet, whether and when will they will eventually use the word Metaverse instead of or in addition to pushing a mainly AR/XR/MR-driven agenda. Yet, it is inevitable that Apple would be going for a closed system which would be challenging given the interoperability nature and necessity of the Metaverse. However, Apple does have the potential and capability to come up with some sort of a “Metaverse closed system” that people would buy into.

What would be better then?

Neither Microsoft nor Samsung nor Apple is losing. Each system and company has its audience and a huge base of users. It will highly depend on the use case and the user`s requirements. For the time being the infrastructure and development are highly in favor of an open, interoperable, decentralized system. Creating a closed system will have its limitations and might undermine the core idea of the Metaverse. An open, interoperable Metaverse is a necessity for many industries and businesses. The ability to smoothly use your digital assets, and different types of software and perform operations in various Metaverse platforms is crucial. The industry is rapidly developing, and the users of the Metaverse will decide which system will dominate.

Urban psychology - New Article

One of my biggest passions has always been designing and building human-centric cities and districts. Some of the key concepts to achieve that are creating active, inclusive, and playable designs.

Our early life experiences play an important role in shaping our personalities.

Urban designers and architects play an important role in creating and designing positive early life experiences. When designing a playground, recreational space, or a full district, it is not just about following the design standards. Many factors should be considered to achieve positive impacts on the mental health and well-being of the residents. Many of these factors are highly personalized and tailored to the city, district, culture, and inhabitants.
