What Does a Smart Brain Look Like?: Inner Views Show How We Think: Scientific American
-
But IQ scores do not tell the whole story—not even close. Intelligence seems to arise from varying combinations of the P-FIT brain areas in different people, which may explain each person’s individual strengths and weaknesses. The challenges of identifying these patterns are well illustrated by the extremely rare cases of autistic savants. Daniel Tammet, for example, is an autistic young adult with uncommonly high IQ scores. He sees numbers as colors and shapes, which allowed him to memorize the value of pi to 22,514 digits. He also learned to converse fluently in Icelandic after only seven days of instruction. Tammet leads an independent life and wrote a best-selling autobiography describing his extraordinary numerical and language ability. What would his “brain profile” show? [For more on Daniel Tammet, see “Think Better: Tips from a Savant,” by Jonah Lehrer; Scientific American Mind, April/May/June 2009.]

The next obvious question was whether energy efficiency can arise through practice. In 1992 we used PET before and after subjects learned the computer game Tetris (a fast paced visuospatial puzzle), and we found less energy use in several brain areas after 50 days of practice and increased skill.
-
But then, in 1995, we discovered a difference in the way male and female brains work, giving us our first clue to what we know today: the concept of efficiency depends on the type and difficulty of tasks involved, and there are individual and group differences in brain function during problem solving, depending on who is doing the thinking.

1. Get logged in remotely as r00t by one of these methods:
a . SSH into the box (we know Trinity loves SSH from Matrix:Reloaded) with a shell account and exploit a local vulnerability to elevate your priviledges to r00t.
b. Use a remote exploit that throws a r00t shell
c. ?2. Execute the command 'ps aux | grep X' to see the list of running processes, singling out the X server (the windowing system). Note it's PID.
3. You can execute the 'w' command to see who is all logged into the box, and note the TTYs, but the X server is usually running on /dev/tty1, so we can assume it is that and skip this step.
4. Kill the process for X, bringing the victim to a blank terminal.
5. Execute 'echo "Wake up, Neo." > /dev/tty1', assuming the terminal the victim will be dropped to is on tty1, the default. This will place the words "Wake up, Neo." on your victim's screen.
6. You can keep sending messages to their screen in this manner, remembering to execute 'clear > /dev/tty1' to clear the screen between messages. If you want the screen to type the letters one at a time the way Trinity did to Neo, you can wget a nice little app called 'dirthy' from packetstorm.

Crowds, of course, are not always wise. They are more likely to be wise when two principles are followed. The first principle is that groups should be composed of people with knowledge relevant to a topic. The second principle is that the group needs to hold diverse perspectives and bring different knowledge to bear on a topic.

About Warrick
-
Earlier versions of Warrick did use the Google API, but since Google is
no longer providing
API keys to new users, Warrick is now scraping results by default. We limit Warrick to 1000 queries
per day to Google and Internet Archive so Warrick does not become a burden to them. -
If you would like to retrieve every resource stored in all four web repositories,
use the "complete recovery" (-c) option. This is useful when a website has been lost and the root
page that is cached no longer contains links to the rest of the website.
